Virginia Giuffre said she was paid $15,000 by Jeffrey Epstein for having sex with Prince Andrew, when she was 17.
Although the prince has consistently denied the accusation, insisting he has no memory of ever meeting Giuffre, he paid her a reputed $14 million to settle a lawsuit she brought against him alleging sexual abuse.
Giuffre, now 40, made the allegation in a 2016 deposition, as part of a since-settled defamation suit against Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s former girlfriend. The deposition is among a huge trove of papers released by a New York court, which has reignited public scrutiny of Andrew’s association with Epstein.
