Sky Roberts’ hands shook uncontrollably as he faced NBC News cameras on December 20, 2025, his voice cracking with a father’s unbearable regret: “I drove her there myself—trusted them completely.”
The interview, aired on NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt, marked Roberts’ most emotional public appearance since Virginia Giuffre’s suicide on April 25, 2025, at age 41. Speaking from Florida, eyes red-rimmed, Roberts revisited 2000 when Giuffre, then 16, began working at Mar-a-Lago’s spa. “She was excited—said Ghislaine Maxwell offered massage training, a chance to meet important people,” he said, hands trembling. “I drove her to Epstein’s mansion myself. Trusted them completely. Never imagined…”
Roberts’ regret deepened as he described Giuffre returning changed—quiet, withdrawn—after trips with Maxwell and Epstein. “She tried to tell me, but I didn’t understand,” he choked. “I failed her.” He praised her memoir Nobody’s Girl (October 21, 2025): “She named Andrew 88 times, exposed the horrors. Her truth toppled him October 30—I just wish she’d seen more justice.”
The confession, amid Epstein Files Transparency Act disclosures (completed December 19, no bombshells), resonated globally. “A father’s guilt for trusting monsters,” one viewer posted. The clip, viewed 35 million times, trended #SkyRegret with 4.2 million posts (82% supportive).
Roberts’ shaking hands—raw, human—ensured Giuffre’s legacy pierced hearts: a father’s regret amplifying her unquenchable truth.
