Andrew: 'No record' of Queen meeting with Roberts

Buckingham Palace has said there is "no record" of a meeting between the Queen and the woman at the centre of sex allegations against her son, the Duke of York.

Virginia Roberts claims she was forced to have sex with Prince Andrew when she was 17 , which is under the age of consent in America.

Palace officials have "emphatically denied" the claims but the woman's father Sky Roberts says his daughter once met the Queen while on a visit to London.

A palace spokesman insisted: "There is nothing to suggest the claim is true. We have no record of such a meeting."
