Virginia Giuffre is suing Prince Andrew, alleging that the Duke of York raped and sexually abused her when she was 17
Prince Andrew, Duke of York, has been accused of raping and sexually assaulting a minor. Photo: Steve Parsons - WPA Pool/Getty Images On Monday, Virginia Giuffre filed a lawsuit against Prince Andrew alleging that the Duke of York had raped and sexually abused her when she was 17, as reported by the New York Times.
In her lawsuit, Giuffre alleges that Andrew sexually abused her in New York City, where the suit was filed. She also says he raped her at the London home of Ghislaine Maxwell, an alleged accomplice of Epstein, after Maxwell and Epstein had forced her to have sex with the prince. The suit claims the prince knew that Giuffre was underage and that she was a victim of sex trafficking at the hands of Epstein and Maxwell.
The lawsuit also includes a photograph of Andrew with his arm around Giuffre’s waist. She says the photo was taken at Maxwell’s London home in 2001; Maxwell is also pictured. Andrew has previously alleged that the photo was doctored. The prince has also refuted Giuffre’s previous accounts of their interactions, including one in which she says the prince was “profusely sweating” when the two were dancing in a London nightclub.
Andrew is one of the many high-profile men who had a relationship with Epstein. Former presidents Bill Clinton and Donald Trump as well as billionaire Bill Gates were also among Epstein’s social circle. Although Andrew previously pledged to help with the investigation into Epstein and Maxwell, prosecutors say he has yet to offer any aid. “To date, Prince Andrew has provided zero cooperation,” Geoffrey S. Berman, a Manhattan federal prosecutor, previously told the Times.
Even though in 2019, following Andrew’s widely criticized BBC interview, Buckingham Palace announced the prince would be stepping down from his public duties, the palace has continued to protect him, having previously told CNN, “It is emphatically denied that the Duke of York had any form of sexual contact or relationship with Virginia Roberts. Any claim to the contrary is false and without foundation.” Neither the palace nor a lawyer for Andrew has responded to Giuffre’s new lawsuit.
