While Andrew has maintained his innocence about having any knowledge of the accusations against Jeffery and denied knowing and having slept the victims who have spoken out against him.

Sarah has spoken out publically about the controversy surrounding his association with the late financier, and revealed that public fallout had been difficult on the entire family.
