Virginia Giuffre’s posthumous memoir ‘Nobody’s Girl’ recounts a grim life torn apart by sexual exploitation with allegations against her father and Prince Andrew, among others.

She lifts the lid on the way she was manipulated by Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell and caught up in a sordid web of abuse.

Prince Andrew vehemently denies having sexual relations with her.

In the book, she claims the Prince, then a relatively dashing figure dressed in ‘slacks, a light blue dress shirt open at the collar with French cuffs, and elegant cuff links’, had sex with her after a night out at Tramp nightclub in London.

Giuffre died six months ago by suicide, but had insisted the book should be published even in the event of her death.

Her relationship with Andrew

Virginia Giuffre writes that the first time she met Prince Andrew, they went out to the Tramp nightclub with Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein.

She recounts that he was ‘a bumbling dancer and sweated profusely’.

However, she says he had ‘youthful eyes’ and he was ‘relatively fit’, suggesting she saw why he was known as the playboy of the royal family at the time.

In tabloid papers, he was nicknamed ‘Randy Andy’ and much was made of his previous service in the Falklands War as a helicopter pilot.

She says she gave Epstein her camera to snap a picture of her with Andrew.

An image purported to be from that liaison has been disputed by the Prince.

She claims in the book that when they got back to Epstein’s place, she and Andrew had sex after sharing a bath.

She wrote that she was told by Maxwell: ‘When we get home, you are to do for him what you do for Jeffrey’.

Giuffre said Andrew seemed to believe ‘having sex with me was his birthright.’

She added: ‘I took him first to a bathroom, where I drew him a hot bath. We disrobed and got in the tub, but we didn’t stay there long as the tub was eager to get to the bed.’

She wrote that he caressed her feet before seeming ‘in a rush to have intercourse.’

Afterwards she says he said ‘thank you in a clipped British accent.

The Prince denies this liaison.

Prince Andrew’s team have attempted to hire ‘internet trolls’ to spread doubt over her claims.

In 2022, Prince Andrew paid Giuffre millions in an attempt to stop her talking about the allegations.

She alleges in the book that he hired a ‘team of internet trolls’ to discredit her.

She wrote: ‘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 are trying the next best thing: a general acknowledgement of what I’ve been through.

Giuffre wanted to use her payout from the Royal Family to ‘do some good’.

She claims Prince Andrew’s mother, the late Queen had procured the funds.

She wrote: ‘I look forward to disseminating some of the Crown’s money to do some good.

‘Now that my settlement has ,come I’ve begun the slow process of turning my fledgling foundation Soar into a professionally run organisation.

‘Soar was set up to help victims of exploitation.

She noted on the payout: ‘His mother, the Queen of England had footed the bill’. She said she was ‘in tears’ when the settlement came through.

Buckingham Palace has not commented on the claims.

Prince Andrew’s Newsnight interview.

Giuffre says that Andrew’s car crash Newsnight interview was like ‘an injection of fuel’ for her legal team.

In the interview in 2019, he brazenly said he ‘did not regret’ his relationship with Epstein.

He also said he had ‘no recollection’ of ever meeting Giuffre and had been at Pizza Express with his daughter Beatrice, when it was claimed he was with her.

Giuffre wrote in her book: ‘If we deposed the princesses, we could poke holes in his alibi.’

Prince Andrew ‘orgy’

Giuffre says she had sex with Prince Andrew three times, including once in an ‘orgy’.

She claims in the book: ‘Epstein, Andy, and approximately eight other young girls and I had sex together. 

‘The other girls all appeared to be under the age of 18 and didn’t really speak English.

‘Epstein laughed about how they couldn’t really communicate, saying they are the easiest girls to get along with.’

The alleged encounter took place on Epstein’s island, which Giuffre paints as a place where debauchery was normalised. 

She writes that some time after the alleged orgy, she saw a photograph of Epstein walking in New York’s Central Park next to Prince Andrew and published by the world’s media in 2011. 

She wrote: ‘I was of course revolted to see two of my abusers together, out for a stroll,” she writes.

‘But mostly I was amazed that a member of the Royal Family would be stupid enough to appear in public with Epstein’.
