King Charles is forging ahead with Balmoral Castle plans despite a new allegation linking Andrew and Epstein to the beloved royal residence.

According to a social media announcement shared by the royal estate over the weekend, visitors will once again be invited inside the King’s Scottish home following the winter break.

In an Instagram post, Balmoral detailed what guests can expect when the castle reopens. “Tickets for Balmoral Castle in Spring & Summer 2026 are now available to book online,” the message read.

From March 28 through mid-August, visitors can explore the grounds and gardens, the Ballroom Exhibition, the Mews Gift Shop and the restaurant. The post added that “Afternoon Tea with General Admission during the summer months is also available,” along with several premium experiences, including interior castle tours and the Balmoral Expedition Tour.

“Whether you’re planning a return visit or discovering Balmoral for the first time, it’s a wonderful way to experience the Highlands at the Highland home of the Royal Family across the spring and summer seasons,” the statement continued.

The update comes as Charles has been enjoying the festive period at Sandringham, though Balmoral has recently found itself back in the headlines for less celebratory reasons. An exclusive report by The Mail on Sunday alleged that a former model was flown to Balmoral in 1999 by Jeffrey Epstein and told she would be expected to massage the then-Prince Andrew. The woman, now in her 50s, said she refused, explaining, “It felt weird and I didn’t want to.”

She claimed Andrew personally welcomed Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell and herself to the 50,000-acre estate, where they were entertained with a picnic. 

Royal author Andrew Lownie said the new allegations raises serious concerns. “That this young woman was flown to Balmoral raises questions about Andrew’s abuse of royal residences and the suspicion that courtiers turned a blind eye,” he expressed. 

Al Pacino and Noor Alfallah have once again set tongues wagging after being spotted together on a dinner date in Los Angeles over a year after their split.

According to Page Six, the Oscar winner, 85, and the film producer, 32, were photographed arriving at San Vicente Bungalows, a members-only hotspot in West Hollywood on Friday, January 16. Alfallah kept things sleek in a dark overcoat layered over a little black dress, paired with sheer stockings and knee-high combat boots, while Pacino opted for a dark trench coat, black trousers, and sneakers.

The outing follows a cryptic exchange Alfallah had with a TMZ photographer earlier this year. When asked how their son Roman was doing, she replied, “He’s 2 now. Getting big!” Pressed on whether she and Pacino were officially back together, she deflected, saying, “We’re together every day!” She added, “Who doesn’t want to be together with him? He’s the coolest guy.”

She also used the moment to plug their professional collaboration, Dead Man’s Wire, signalling that their bond extends beyond parenting.

Speculation around Pacino’s personal life intensified in December after he was seen wearing a gold ring on his left hand, though a rep later clarified that the actor “is not married.”

While a representative previously told People magazine that Pacino and Alfallah are “very good friends” and focused on co-parenting, their latest public appearance is sure to reignite questions about whether romance is once again in the picture.
