The woman was not British, and at that time she was in her 20s. The woman\u2019s lawyer, Brad Edwards, is from the US firm Edwards Henderson.

One of these encounters took place in New York and once occurred on Epstein\u2019s private Caribbean island. Epstein was convicted in 2008 of soliciting sex from a 14-year-old girl in Florida and completed his sentence for the same in July 2010.<\/p>\n<p>The lawyer, who is based in Florida, told the <em>BBC<\/em> that there were communications between his client and the former prince before the encounter, where she says she spent the night with him.
