A posthumous memoir by Virginia Giuffre accuses the Duke of York of being "entitled - as if he believed having sex with me was his birthright", according to extracts published in the Guardian newspaper.

Prince Andrew stepped down from public life after the furore over his friendship with the paedophile financier following an interview with BBC Newsnight in late 2019, hosted by Emily Maitlis. The Duke of York retains his title HRH but does not use it in any official capacity.

Jeffrey Epstein victim Virginia Roberts Giuffre was “savagely” beaten, raped by a “well-known prime minister” in a series of encounters, she said in her memoir.
