Virginia Giuffre’s posthumous memoir, Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice, released on October 21, 2025, by Alfred A. Knopf, delivers a raw, unflinching indictment of Prince Andrew, naming him 88 times and portraying him as an “entitled” predator who viewed her exploitation as his “birthright.” Co-authored with journalist Amy Wallace, the 400-page volume chronicles Giuffre’s recruitment at age 16 from a Mar-a-Lago spa in 2000 by Ghislaine Maxwell, under the guise of massage training, leading to years of sexual servitude within Jeffrey Epstein’s network.
Giuffre recounts three alleged encounters with Andrew in 2001—at Maxwell’s London townhouse, Epstein’s New York mansion, and an orgy on Little Saint James island—describing him as believing intimacy with her was a royal prerogative. “He was friendly enough, but still entitled—as if he believed having sex with me was his birthright,” she writes, reflecting on his post-assault demeanor. The memoir also accuses an unidentified “well-known prime minister” of a violent rape, hints at other elites, and exposes Epstein’s hidden cameras for blackmail.
Andrew, who denies all allegations and settled Giuffre’s 2021 lawsuit for £12 million in 2022 without admitting liability, relinquished his Duke of York title on October 17, 2025, amid the book’s fallout, with King Charles III revoking his honors by October 30. Wallace, in a BBC Newsnight interview (October 20, 2025), affirmed Giuffre’s resolve: “She knew this would outlive her.” The #1 New York Times bestseller has amassed 5.2 million X posts under #NobodysGirl, 78% supporting survivor advocacy. Giuffre’s unvarnished prose ensures her truth endures, challenging the impunity that once shielded her abusers.
