King Charles faces fresh calls to meet with Epstein victims on US state visit

United States Jeffrey Epstein

King Charles is facing renewed calls from a Jeffrey Epstein survivor to meet with victims ahead of his historic address to Congress.
Epstein survivor Teresa Helm stated it was a 'missed opportunity' for the monarch not to meet victims during his four-day state visit.
The King is scheduled to deliver an address to Congress on Tuesday.
This will be only the second time a British monarch has addressed Congress, following Queen Elizabeth II in 1991.
He is expected to speak about the UK and US finding ways to 'come together' despite past disagreements and current strains on their 'special relationship' from the Iran war.
