Key questions answered about allegations surrounding king’s brother ahead of publication of Virginia Giuffre book
After discussions with King Charles, Prince Andrew has relinquished his royal titles including the Duke of York. It comes ahead of a memoir due to be published posthumously this week by Virginia Giuffre.
The book sets out how Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell took advantage of their position of power to manipulate and groom Giuffre, and includes the allegation that Prince Andrew thought having sex with her when she was a teenager was “his birthright”.
In a statement Andrew said he “vigorously denied” the allegations. But questions still remain about his contact with Epstein, a settlement he made to Giuffre, and whether giving up his titles will be enough.
Andrew has consistently denied all of the allegations made against him by Giuffre.
