Virginia Giuffre says she feared she would “die as a sex slave” at the hands of Jeffrey Epstein and his circle, her posthumous memoir reveals.

The BBC has obtained a full copy of the book Nobody’s Girl, written by the high-profile Epstein accuser, ahead of its publication on Tuesday – almost six months after her suicide.

In her memoir, Ms Giuffre also says she had sex with Prince Andrew on three separate occasions, including once with Epstein and around eight other young women.

Prince Andrew, who reached a financial settlement with Ms Giuffre in 2022, has always denied any wrongdoing.

The memoirs, which the BBC bought from a bookstore in central London days before its official publication, paint a picture of a network of wealthy and influential people who abuse young women.

At the center of the abuse were Epstein and his former girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence on sex trafficking charges.

Even decades later, Ms Giuffre says, she remembers how afraid she was of them.

Much of the book makes for extremely harrowing reading, as Ms. Giuffre details Epstein’s sadistic abuse.

She says Epstein subjected her to sadomasochistic sex, causing her “so much pain that I prayed she would pass out.”

A source at Buckingham Palace told BBC News they accept there may be “more painful days ahead” as a result of the book’s publication, which would put Prince Andrew under greater scrutiny.

The King’s engagements this week include a visit to the Vatican, where… He will pray alongside the Pope.

Prince Andrew announced on Friday that he has voluntarily decided not to use his titles, including his own Duke of YorkIt is an honor he received from his mother, the late Queen Elizabeth II.

He also renounces his membership of the Order of the Garter, the oldest and most prestigious knightly order in Britain.

He said in his statement: “I strongly deny the accusations against me.”

However, the new book, written by Lady Giuffre and ghostwriter Amy Wallace, puts the prince under greater scrutiny.

Giuffre says in her memoirs that she met Prince Andrew for the first time in March 2001.

She wrote that Maxwell woke her up and told her it would be a “special day” and that “just like Cinderella” she would meet a “handsome prince.”

She says that when she met Prince Andrew later that day, Maxwell asked him to guess her age.

Giuffre said the prince, who was 41 at the time, “guessed correctly: seventeen years.” “My daughters are a little younger than you,” she remembers him saying.

That night, she said she attended Trump nightclub in London with Prince Andrew, Epstein and Maxwell, where she says the prince was “sweating profusely.”

In the car on the way back to Maxwell’s house afterward, Ms. Giuffre wrote that Maxwell told her: “When we get home, you have to do to him what you do to Geoffrey.”

She wrote that they had sex at home.

“He was friendly enough, but still entitled, as if he thought having sex with me was his birthright,” she says.

“The next morning, it was clear that Maxwell had consulted with her royal friend because she said to me: ‘You’ve done a good job. The prince has enjoyed himself.'”

Giuffre wrote that she was “not feeling great,” adding, “Soon, Epstein will give me $15,000 for favors for the man the tabloids call ‘Randy Andy’ — a lot of money.”

Ms Giuffre says she had sex for a second time with the prince about a month later at Epstein’s home in New York.

She says the third occasion was on Epstein’s island as part of what Ms Giuffre called an “orgy”.

She said in her sworn statement in 2015 that she was “about 18 years old,” she wrote.

“Epstein, Andy, and I and about eight other young girls had sex together,” she says.

“The other girls seem to be under 18 and don’t really speak English.

“Epstein laughed at their inability to communicate, saying they were the easiest girls to get along with.”

Later in the book, Mrs. Geoffrey addresses this Out-of-court settlement for 2022 With Prince Andrew after she filed a civil suit against him.

“I agreed to a one-year gag order, which seemed important to the prince because it ensured his mother’s platinum jubilee would not be tarnished any further than it already was,” she wrote.

While Ms. Giuffre’s alleged interactions with Prince Andrew were widely reported in the British press, the book’s content is broader — full of sinister details of Epstein’s sex trafficking.

Giuffre says girls were told to appear “childish,” and her childhood eating disorder was only “encouraged” under Epstein’s roof.

“During the years I spent with them, they lent me to dozens of wealthy and influential people,” she wrote.

“I was routinely exploited and humiliated – in some cases, strangled, beaten and bloodied.

“I thought I might die a sex slave.”

Epstein was convicted in Florida in 2008 of soliciting prostitution from a person under 18. He died in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.

The Metropolitan Police said on Sunday it was “actively” looking into media reports that… Prince Andrew tried to obtain personal information about Lady Geoffrey Through a Police Protection Officer (PPO).

According to the Mail on Sunday, the prince asked the officer to investigate Ms Giuffre before the newspaper published a photo in February 2011 of her first meeting with the prince.

The newspaper claimed that he gave the officer her date of birth and secret Social Security number.

Dai Davies, the former head of royal protection at Scotland Yard, told BBC One’s Breakfast programme, the case was “scandalous”, adding: “It has to be resolved one way or another.”

“If – and I say if – there is any evidence of criminality whether under data protection law or wrongdoing in public office, that should be carefully examined, and then a report sent to the Public Prosecution Service.” [Service]He said.

“It is clear that the government itself will have to act regarding his status as prince.”

A royal source told the BBC that there are currently no plans to remove the title of prince with which Andrew was born.

“The headlines are taking a lot of oxygen out of the royal room,” they added, referring to the press reporting Prince Andrew diverting attention away from King Charles’ engagements.

In 2019, the prince repeatedly He told BBC Newsnight he did not remember meeting Ms Giuffre “at all”. And they “did not have any kind of sexual intercourse at all.”

Buckingham Palace did not comment.

Virginia’s brother Geoffrey King is calling for Prince Andrew to be stripped of his title of ‘prince’.
