In pages that outlast her own voice, Virginia Giuffre recounts the calculated grooming by Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell that delivered her, at seventeen, into three separate encounters of alleged abuse with Prince Andrew.
Published posthumously in October 2025 as Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice, Giuffre’s book provides a raw, first-person account of her recruitment and exploitation. At 16, while working at Mar-a-Lago, she was spotted by Maxwell, who lured her with promises of massage training and opportunities. Giuffre describes Maxwell as an “apex predator” who tailored grooming to vulnerable girls, offering pseudo-parental care while normalizing abuse.
Epstein and Maxwell, she writes, reshaped her identity—pressuring her appearance, rewarding compliance with money and gifts, and instilling fear of escape. Giuffre feared she might “die a sex slave,” trapped in their web of luxury masking horror.
The memoir details three alleged sexual encounters with Prince Andrew in 2001: first in London at Maxwell’s home, after a nightclub visit where Maxwell likened her to Cinderella meeting a “handsome prince”; second in New York; and third on Epstein’s private island in an orgy involving Epstein and other young women. Giuffre claims Andrew guessed her age correctly as 17, joked about “trading her in,” and acted entitled. Epstein allegedly paid her $15,000 afterward.
Prince Andrew has categorically denied all allegations, stating he never met Giuffre sexually or otherwise, and settled her 2022 civil lawsuit out of court without admitting liability.
Giuffre’s words, completed before her April 2025 suicide, expose systemic protection of powerful abusers. Her legacy amplifies survivors’ calls for full Epstein file transparency and accountability.
