Prince Andrew’s ex-partner has launched another viscous attack on Virginia Giuffre after the Epstein accuser ‘left hospital’ yesterday.
Lady Victoria Hervey was reacting to news that Giuffre had been discharged from Sir Charles Gairdner Hospital in Nedlands, Australia – nearly a week after announcing she ‘had four days to live’.
Lady Victoria, a socialite-turned-reality show performer, dated the Duke of York briefly in 1999.
The aristocrat was already slammed online as ‘nasty’ and ‘vile’ after she posted the word ‘Karma’ alongside the now infamous picture of Giuffre in a hospital bed.
Now Lady Victoria has now told the MailOnline she feels vindicated by her claims the Giuffre fakes her school bus crash.
Lady Victoria said: ‘I called her out because I have known for a long time what this woman is capable of.
‘She claimed more than a week ago that she had four days to live, and yet now she is out of hospital.
She said: ‘I just thought the photo looked dodgy in the beginning. You don’t have earrings on like that and a necklace on if you are dying in hospital. You just don’t. You would have a gown on as well
‘There’s no puffiness in her face. It’s just like a few bruises. It definitely doesn’t look like a dying picture.’
Giuffre, one of Jeffrey Epstein’s most prominent accusers, sued Prince Andrew in 2022, alleging that he raped and sexually abused her as a teen.
Andrew has denied Giuffre’s accusations and said he has ‘no recollection’ of meeting her. They reached an out-of-court settlement in 2022.
Giuffre was admitted to the hospital last Tuesday at 3am for an unknown reason.
This hospital visit came day after test results showed she had kidney problems.
Giuffre first posted about the news in a post on her Instagram page last week, claiming her car had collided with a school bus.
She wrote on March 30: ‘I’ve gone into kidney renal failure, they’ve given me four days to live, transferring me to a specialist hospital in urology.
‘I’m ready to go, just not until I see my babies one last time, but you know what they say about wishes. S**T in one hand and wish in the other & I guarantee it’s still going to be s**t at the end of the day.
‘Thank you all for being the wonderful people of the world and for being a great part of my life. God bless you all xx Virginia’.
But her family later explained she did not mean to share the post publicly.
Western Australia police then said a ‘minor crash’ between a school bus and a car had been reported on March 24 in Neergabby, about 12 miles north of Perth, near Ms Giuffre’s current residence.
‘There were no reported injuries as a result of the crash,’ they added.
Giuffre’s representatives have confirmed to PEOPLE that she has now left hospital.
The prominent Epstein accuser left via a back door to avoid a large media pack that was gathered outside.
After this latest development, Lady Hervey claimed Giuffre was a ‘fantasist’ who has ruined her reputation.
She added to MailOnline: ‘I got a lot of abuse on social media for calling her out and saying that I never believed her. I have no regrets about what I said, and I have been proved right. Her credibility is destroyed.
‘The important thing is that nobody is believing her at all now.’
Giuffre said that Epstein, a billionaire financier, and Ghislaine Maxwell trafficked her to rich and powerful men. She was recruited to provide massages for Epstein and was later required to be on call for him for sexual purposes.
Epstein was awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges when he hanged himself in August 2019 in his New York prison cell.
Maxwell, a former socialite, is serving a 20-year sentence after being convicted of sex trafficking and grooming girls for him.
After the lawsuit was filed by Guiffre, Andrew was forced to relinquish his military titles and lost his use of the title, ‘His Royal Highness’.
He was seen for the first time at the weekend since her bus crash horse riding in Windsor.
