Permanently banished from royal duties and stripped of all titles, Prince Andrew faces an eternal exile as the monarchy distances itself decisively from the devastating revelations in Virginia Giuffre’s posthumous memoir.
Published on October 21, 2025, Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice became an instant bestseller, selling over a million copies amid renewed global scrutiny of Jeffrey Epstein’s network. Giuffre, who died by suicide in April 2025 at age 41, fulfilled her wish for the book—co-authored with Amy Wallace—to expose unflinching truths about her trafficking and abuse.
The memoir details Giuffre’s grooming at 16, sadistic acts by Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, and three alleged sexual encounters with Andrew in 2001, when she was 17: in London (after the infamous photo), New York, and an orgy on Epstein’s island. She portrays Andrew as “entitled,” believing sex with her was his “birthright,” and claims he guessed her age correctly while joking about “trading her in.”
Though Andrew settled a 2022 civil suit—denying wrongdoing and paying millions—the book’s release proved catastrophic. Days prior, he relinquished his Duke of York title and honors. By October 30, King Charles initiated formal removal of all styles, titles, and privileges, evicting him from Royal Lodge. Andrew, now known as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, was stripped even of his prince designation and Order of the Garter membership.
As 2025 ends, Andrew spends Christmas excluded from Sandringham, facing private funding for security and a planned move to smaller accommodation. Giuffre’s voice, preserved forever, ensures his associations with Epstein haunt the monarchy indelibly, prompting reforms to protect its future.
