Virginia Giuffre’s posthumous memoir, Nobody’s Girl, was published today, and it makes some shocking new claims against Jeffrey Epstein and Prince Andrew.
Giuffre, who died by suicide in April, had told co-writer Amy Wallace shortly before her death that publishing the book was her “heartfelt wish” regardless of whether she was alive to see its release.
The memoir includes disturbing details of her time under Epstein and Maxwell’s control, and describes three alleged sexual encounters with Prince Andrew, who has denied all accusations.
Alleged First Encounter with Prince Andrew: “He Seemed in a Rush to Have Intercourse”
Giuffre recounts meeting Prince Andrew in 2001, saying Maxwell told her she was “just like Cinderella” about to meet a “handsome prince," cited by Sky News.
She recalls Andrew correctly guessing her age: “My daughters are just a little younger than you.”
According to the memoir, the evening included a visit to a nightclub: “He was sort of a bumbling dancer, and I remember he sweated profusely.”
Andrew has denied this specific detail, saying in a 2019 BBC Newsnight interview that he could not sweat due to a medical condition at the time.
Back at the house, Giuffre claims she ran him a bath before they had sex: “He seemed in a rush to have intercourse. Afterward, he said thank you in his clipped British accent. In my memory, the whole thing lasted less than half an hour.”
The next morning, Maxwell reportedly praised her: “‘You did well. The prince had fun.’”
Describing Andrew, Giuffre writes: “Friendly enough, but still entitled. As if he believed having sex with me was his birthright.”
She adds that Epstein paid her $15,000 for “servicing the man the tabloids called ‘Randy Andy’.”
Prince Andrew has maintained he has “no recollection whatsoever” of meeting Giuffre and claimed he was with his daughter, Princess Beatrice, at Pizza Express in Woking on the day in question.
Seeing Andrew with Epstein in Central Park Pushed Giuffre to Speak Out
Giuffre writes that her decision to go public came in 2011, after seeing photos of Epstein walking with Prince Andrew in Central Park — despite Epstein having already served jail time for procuring underage girls.
“It seemed that being a sex offender had not eroded Epstein’s social cachet one bit," she wrote. "The two-one punch of the photo in Central Park and the details of that A-list party knocked me off the fence I’d been straddling. I told Churcher I’d go on the record.”
Journalist Sharon Churcher had been in contact with Giuffre since 2011. Her first article — published in the Mail On Sunday — did not name Andrew but claimed Giuffre had been trafficked to “royalty.”
Prince Andrew’s Team Allegedly Tried to Discredit Giuffre
Reflecting on the 2022 civil settlement, which reportedly involved millions of dollars despite Andrew continuing to deny all allegations, Giuffre claims his team actively tried to undermine her: “After casting doubt on my credibility for so long — Prince Andrew’s team had even gone so far as to try to hire internet trolls to hassle me — the Duke of York owed me a meaningful apology as well.
“We would never get a confession, of course. That’s what settlements are designed to avoid. But we were trying for the next best thing: a general acknowledgment of what I’d been through.”
Buckingham Palace has not issued any comment on the memoir and clarified that it does not represent Prince Andrew, who is no longer a working royal.
