Amy Wallace, co-author of Virginia Giuffre’s posthumous memoir Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice, has spoken candidly about the lasting impact of Giuffre’s allegations on Prince Andrew. In interviews following the book’s October 2025 release, Wallace described how Andrew’s past behavior is steadily dismantling his once-untouchable status, welcoming the visible consequences as a form of justice Giuffre would have celebrated.
Giuffre, who tragically died by suicide in April 2025 at age 41, detailed in the memoir three alleged sexual encounters with Andrew—then a prince—in London, New York, and on Jeffrey Epstein’s private island. She portrayed him as “entitled,” believing such acts were his “birthright.” Andrew has always vigorously denied the claims, settling Giuffre’s 2022 civil lawsuit with a multimillion-pound payment without admitting liability.
Wallace, in a BBC Newsnight appearance, noted Andrew’s life is “being eroded” by his actions. She highlighted his voluntary relinquishment of titles like Duke of York just days before the book’s publication, saying, “I know that she [Giuffre] would view it as a victory that he was forced, by whatever means, to voluntarily give them up.” Wallace urged Andrew to cooperate with investigators, pointing out he was present at Epstein’s properties and could provide valuable information, despite once offering help that never materialized.
The memoir’s release intensified pressure on the monarchy. On October 30, 2025, King Charles III initiated a formal process to strip Andrew of all remaining titles, including the style “Prince” and “His Royal Highness.” He was evicted from Royal Lodge, his longtime Windsor residence, and is now known simply as Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor. By November, official notices confirmed the revocation of honors like the Order of the Garter.
Wallace emphasized Giuffre’s unwavering credibility, stating she had “no doubt” about the allegations. “Virginia remembered faces clearly,” she told ITV News, defending Giuffre’s detailed recollections despite trauma affecting exact dates. Wallace also revealed Giuffre’s determination to publish the book regardless of circumstances, ensuring her voice endured.
Giuffre’s family echoed this sentiment, declaring the title stripping a “victory” while calling for full accountability. As of December 2025, Andrew remains eighth in the line of succession but isolated from royal duties, his privileged existence profoundly diminished. Wallace’s insights underscore a poignant truth: Giuffre’s courage, even from beyond the grave, continues to hold power to account, eroding foundations built on denial and influence.
