Virginia Giuffre’s memoir has appeared in bookshops one day early as Prince Andrew and the Royal Family prepare to face further embarrassment.
Ms Giuffre has written about her three alleged sexual encounters with Andrew – resurfacing claims of an underage orgy and that the royal believed having sex with her was his ‘birthright’.
Her posthumous autobiography Nobody’s Girl is due to be released tomorrow but was found by the Daily Mail on shelves at stores in London this morning.
In the book, Ms Giuffre said British socialite-turned-sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell told her ‘just like Cinderella, I was going to meet a handsome prince’ ahead of the first alleged incident in March 2001.
The book reads: ‘It was going to be a special day, she said. Just like Cinderella, I was going to meet a handsome prince! Her old friend Prince Andrew would be dining with us that night, she said, and we had lots to do to get me ready.’
Ms Giuffre, who died aged 41 in April, said she was a ‘perfect victim’ for Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein because of her early experience of abuse.
She wrote: ‘I know about monsters. As a child, I experienced nearly every kind of abuse: Incest, parental neglect, severe corporal punishment, molestation, rape.
‘As a teen, I had been sexually trafficked by another paedophile even before I met Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.’
First sexual encounter with Andrew and the infamous photo
After repeating claims that she attended Tramp nightclub with the prince where he ‘sweated profusely’, Ms Giuffre went on to allege Andrew had sex with her at Maxwell’s London home.

Ms Giuffre said: ”Guess Jenna’s age’, she urged the prince, after she introduced me. The Duke of York, who was then 41, guessed correctly: 17. ‘My daughters are just a little younger than you’, he told me, explaining his accuracy.’
Ms Giuffre said she remembered running for her ‘Kodak FunSaver’ camera to snap the now infamous picture of her with Andrew – adding that ‘my mom would never forgive me if I met someone as famous as Prince Andrew and didn’t pose for a picture’.
She continued: ‘He was friendly enough, but still entitled – as if he believed having sex with me was his birthright. 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 because the prince was eager to get to the bed. He was particularly attentive to my feet, caressing my toes and licking my arches.’
Andrew ‘seemed in a rush to have intercourse’
Going on to speak about the alleged sexual encounter, Ms Giuffre said: ‘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.’
Ms Giuffre added: ‘The next morning, it was clear that Maxwell had conferred with her royal chum because she told me: ‘You did well. The prince had fun’.’
Her memoir went on to say Jeffrey Epstein gave her $15,000 ‘for servicing the man the tabloids called ‘Randy Andy’- a lot of money’.
Second time Virginia Giuffre allegedly had sex with Andrew
Moving on to her second alleged sexual encounter with the prince at Epstein’s New York home around a month later, Ms Giuffre resurfaced allegations that Andrew was presented with a puppet of himself by Maxwell and allegedly put his hand on the breast of another accuser, Johanna Sjoberg.
Ms Giuffre said: ‘On this night, which was probably around April 2001, Epstein greeted Prince Andrew and brought him to the living room, where Maxwell and I were sitting.
‘Another one of their victims, Johanna Sjoberg, arrived soon afterward. As always when the prince was around, Maxwell was being a saucy flirt.
‘She told Sjoberg to come with her to a closet, where she pulled out a puppet with a little tag on it that said ‘Prince Andrew.’

‘Maxwell then announced to the prince that she’d purchased him a joke gift, a puppet that looked just like him.
‘She made a big show of giving it to him, then suggested we pose for a photo with it.’
Ms Giuffre said she saw ‘symbolism’ in the use of a puppet, adding: ‘Johanna and I were Maxwell and Epstein’s puppets, and they were pulling the strings.’
Maxwell ‘put puppet’s hand on Virginia Giuffre’s breast’
Her memoir continued: ‘The prince and I sat down next to each other on the couch, and Maxwell put the puppet in my lap, positioning one of its hands on one of my breasts.
‘Then she put Sjoberg on the prince’s lap, and the prince put his hand on Sjoberg’s breast. The symbolism was impossible to ignore.
‘Johanna and I were Maxwell and Epstein’s puppets, and they were pulling the strings. Later they sent me to a bedroom, where I had sex with the prince for a second time.’
Andrew’s alleged orgy with ‘eight other young girls’
Ms Giuffre also once again claimed Andrew had participated in an orgy with ‘approximately eight other young girls’ on Epstein’s Caribbean island, Little St James, also referred to as Little Saint Jeff’s by those who knew Epstein.
She repeated allegations made in a sworn declaration in 2015 in which she said all girls seemed to be ‘under the age of 18’.
Her memoir said: ‘I don’t know exactly when I had sex with Prince Andrew for the third time, but I do know the location: Little Saint Jeff’s.

‘I also know that it was not just the two of us this time; it was an orgy. ‘I was around eighteen’, I said in a sworn declaration in 2015. Epstein, Andy, and approximately eight other young girls, and I had sex together.
‘The other girls all seemed and 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.’
Ms Giuffre continued: ‘Since I gave that account, the pilot David Rodgers has said in a deposition that a coded notation (‘AP’) that he made on his flight log for July 4, 2001, referred to Prince Andrew.
‘He said that Epstein, the prince, another woman, and I flew from Saint Thomas that day back to Palm Beach.
‘I guess it’s possible that the orgy I remember occurred in the days leading up to that flight, which would mean I was still seventeen. I’ll probably never know the date for certain.’
Legal settlement and Andrew ‘paying internet trolls’
Andrew paid millions to Ms Giuffre to settle a civil sexual assault case, despite claiming never to have met her.
Ms Giuffre wrote how he hid behind ‘the well-guarded gates’ of Balmoral Castle, making it difficult for her lawyers to serve him with papers.
She also said of her 2022 legal settlement with Andrew: ‘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.’
She added: ‘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.’
Ms Giuffre described how she took part in two days of mediation, and her lawyer read the duke’s agreed settlement statement at 2.30am Florida time ‘through tears, both hers and mine’.
Ms Giuffre, who died by suicide in April, wrote an email to her co-writer Amy Wallace at the start of that month shortly after being involved in a car crash that said it was her ‘heartfelt wish that this work be published, regardless of my circumstances at the time’, and that it was still to be released in the event of her death.
‘The content of this book is crucial, as it aims to shed light on the systemic failures that allow the trafficking of vulnerable individuals across borders,’ she said in the email.
Ms Giuffre added: ‘In the event of my passing, I would like to ensure that Nobody’s Girl is still released. I believe it has the potential to impact many lives and foster necessary discussions about these grave injustices.’
Concern over conspiracy theories after Diana died
Ms Giuffre also revealed how the conspiracy theories surrounding Diana’s death impacted her when was allegedly forced to have sex with Andrew in London because she was ‘surrounded by people who wielded vastly more clout than I ever would’.
‘I hadn’t wanted to have sex with the prince, I said, but I felt I had to,’ she wrote, saying she believed there was no way to free herself from Epstein and Maxwell’s grip.

She said her then-boyfriend Tony Figueroa was ‘scared that I was alone in a foreign country with people so powerful; he said he understood why I felt powerless
‘Less than four years earlier, Lady Diana had died in a car accident, prompting some conjecture (never proven) that the royal family had somehow been involved.
‘Tony and I had no way of knowing if this was true, but we were sure that I was surrounded by people who wielded vastly more clout than I ever would.’
She added: ‘Tony and I agreed that, especially while I was abroad, I needed to keep Epstein and Maxwell happy.’
Harrods boss Mohamed al Fayed had claimed Prince Philip ‘masterminded’ the car crash that killed Diana and his son Dodi Al Fayed, but an inquest found their chauffeur Henri Paul was drunk and driving too fast.
‘Sexy’ dresses and a Burberry purse to meeet Andrew
Ms Giuffre described how convicted sex trafficker Maxwell bought her an expensive Burberry purse and three different outfits including ‘two sexy, sophisticated dresses’ to meet Andrew.
‘When we got back to her house, I laid them out on the bed. There were two sexy, sophisticated dresses she’d picked out and a third option that I’d lobbied for: a pink V-necked, sleeveless mini T-shirt and a sparkly, multicoloured pair of jeans embroidered with a pattern of interlocking horses,’ she wrote.
‘After I showered and dried my hair, I put on the jeans and top, which left a strip of my stomach exposed. Maxwell wasn’t thrilled, but like most teenage girls then, I idolised Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera, and the third outfit was something I imagined the two of them might wear. I told Maxwell it felt more like ‘me’.’
What could happen next to Andrew?
Andrew strenuously denies all the allegations made by Ms Giuffre.
But the Metropolitan Police has said it would look into claims in The Mail on Sunday that Andrew had passed Ms Giuffre’s date of birth and social security number to his taxpayer-funded bodyguard in 2011 and asked him to investigate.
He is also said to have emailed the late Queen Elizabeth II’s then-deputy press secretary and told him of his request to his protection officer, and also suggested Ms Giuffre had a criminal record.
The allegations are the latest to emerge against the prince, who relinquished his dukedom and other honours on Friday, after excerpts from the posthumous autobiography of Ms Giuffre were released.
Andrew, still a prince and living in the 30-bedroom Royal Lodge mansion, issued a statement in his own words on Friday in which he said he was giving up his Duke of York title and honours, to prevent distracting from the work of the monarch and the royal family.
Ms Giuffre’s brother, Sky Roberts, has urged the King to go further and strip Andrew of his right to be a prince.
Charles is said to have acted, in consultation with William, Andrew and the royal family, on Friday, after it emerged Andrew had emailed Jeffrey Epstein in 2011 saying ‘we’re in this together’, three months after he claimed he had broken all contact with him.
In 2022, the then-Duke of York paid millions to accuser Ms Giuffre to settle a civil sexual assault case, despite claiming never to have met her.
The prince’s 2019 Newsnight interview, which he hoped would clear his name, backfired when he said he ‘did not regret’ his friendship with convicted paedophile Epstein, who trafficked Ms Giuffre.
He was heavily criticised for failing to show sympathy with the sex offender’s victims.
Andrew also said he had ‘no recollection’ of ever meeting Ms Giuffre, and said he could not have had sex with her in March 2001 because he was at Pizza Express with Beatrice on the day in question.
Ms Giuffre alleged, which Andrew vehemently denies, that she was forced to have sex with the prince on three occasions, including when she was 17, after being trafficked by Epstein.
