Virginia Giuffre’s memoir has brought new accusations against Prince Andrew and the late convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein. He denounced all his royal titles last week, days before the book was released to the public, but not everyone is on Giuffre’s side. Now, Andrew’s ex, Lady Victoria Hervey, has come under heavy fire over her comment about Giuffre.
Prince Andrew has faced scrutiny over the sex scandal involving him and Jeffrey Epstein. He lost his military titles when the allegations surfaced, and with Virginia Giuffre’s posthumous memoir’s release, he no longer holds royal titles.
On Friday, Prince Andrew denounced his royal titles, calling the accusations against him a “distraction” from the Royal Family’s work and maintaining his denial.
“In discussion with The King, and my immediate and wider family, we have concluded the continued accusations about me distract from the work of His Majesty and the Royal Family. I have decided, as I always have, to put my duty to my family and country first. I stand by my decision five years ago to stand back from public life,” Andrew wrote in the statement.
“With His Majesty’s agreement, we feel I must now go a step further. I will therefore no longer use my title or the honours which have been conferred upon me. As I have said previously, I vigorously deny the accusations against me.”
Virginia Giuffre’s 367-page memoir, Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice, contains new information and allegations regarding Prince Andrew.

For example, in the book, she described the first night she met him, and how Andrew allegedly felt it was his “birthright” to have sexual intercourse with her.
Giuffre wrote, “In the years since, I’ve thought a lot about how he behaved. He was friendly enough, but still entitled – as if he believed having sex with me was his birthright.”
“I drew him a hot bath. We disrobed and got in the tub, but 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. That was a first for me, and it tickled. I was nervous he would want me to do the same to him.”
Virginia Giuffre added, “But I needn’t have worried. 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.”
Prince Andrew has consistently denied the allegations. Meanwhile, his ex-girlfriend, Lady Victoria Hervey, has continued to express support for him. Hervey, whom Andrew dated shortly before meeting Sarah Ferguson, has publicly disagreed with Giuffre’s claims on multiple occasions.
For example, when Giuffre was photographed with a bruised face after a road accident shortly before her death, Lady Victoria posted the comment, “What is karma,” directed at the sex trafficking victim.

Now, Prince Andrew’s ex-girlfriend has received criticism following new comments about Virginia.
Following the release of Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice, Lady Victoria Hervey, who has shared conspiracy-related views according to the Mirror, posted on Instagram, “Her death was extremely convenient to take back the narrative and make people forget how her story developed towards the end of her life.”
She questioned who benefited from Virginia’s death, adding, “I go on TV with people who have not read depositions or court filings or spoken to whistleblowers, and they think they know best because of a headline story in a newspaper. It’s tedious and a joke.”
Lady Victoria concluded, “There are some very dark forces at play here which have created the witch hunts.”
