Virginia Giuffre was one of the most prominent accusers linked to Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking network and became a central figure in the global reckoning of his crimes. In 2019, she gave a widely discussed interview with the BBC, in which she claimed that as a teenager, she was trafficked by Epstein and forced to have sex with Prince Andrew several times in the early 2000s—allegations that Andrew has consistently denied.
In February 2022, Prince Andrew agreed to settle Giuffre’s civil lawsuit for sexual assault without admitting guilt, according to the Washington Post. Court documents stated that he would make a significant donation to Giuffre’s fund supporting victims' rights and acknowledged that she had suffered as a victim of violence and public attacks. The financial terms of the settlement were not disclosed.
Giuffre continued to advocate for survivors of sex trafficking and violence. She died by suicide in April 2025 at the age of 41. Learn more about her below.

The photograph was taken at Epstein’s mansion in New York between 2001 and 2002, showing Prince Andrew smiling while embracing her at the waist. Ghislaine Maxwell is smiling in the background. He rejected all of Virginia’s allegations in an interview with Newsnight in November 2019. «That didn’t happen. I can absolutely categorically tell you that it never happened», - the Duke stated. In his awkward interview, reportedly arranged by his daughter, Princess Beatrice, he made a strange claim that he could not «sweat» on Virginia because he had a medical condition at the time that made sweating impossible.
