Rothschild faces sexual misconduct allegations from six women over three decades

Sir Evelyn de Rothschild has been accused of sexual misconduct by at least six women, with allegations spanning three decades. The claims include serious incidents of harassment and assault, primarily occurring in the mid to late 1990s, and have emerged two years after his death. The women, who spoke anonymously, reported feeling unable to come forward during Rothschild's lifetime due to his influence. Allegations include forced kissing, groping, and other serious assaults, with incidents taking place at NM Rothschild’s former London offices. Rothschild was forced out of the bank in 2003 following an internal complaint of sexual assault, but the reason was not publicly disclosed. The bank's lawyers stated they investigate all allegations of misconduct, but did not provide further details on past complaints.
