Overview
- Giuffre’s posthumous book, published today, recounts three alleged sexual encounters with Andrew, including when she was 17, and he continues to deny any wrongdoing.
- The Metropolitan Police say they are actively reviewing reports that in 2011 Andrew passed Virginia Giuffre’s personal data to a taxpayer‑funded protection officer to seek discrediting information, as reported by the Mail on Sunday.
- Andrew announced Friday he will stop using his royal titles and honors after discussions with his family, though he remains a prince by law.
- Independent MP Rachael Maskell has introduced a bill to let the King or Parliament strip the Duke of York title, with SNP leader Stephen Flynn backing action, while Giuffre’s brother urges removal of the prince title.
- A 2022 US civil case ended in a settlement without admission of liability, and newly reported emails indicate Andrew was still in contact with Jeffrey Epstein in 2011, with BBC citing claims he sought a nondisclosure agreement to delay publicity.
