A posthumous memoir by Virginia Giuffre accuses the Duke of York of being 'entitled - as if he believed having sex with me was his birthright', according to extracts published in the Guardian newspaper.
The book, Nobody's Girl, written by the prominent accuser of sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, is due to be published next week, almost six months after Ms Giuffre took her own life.
Her memoir, which calls Epstein a 'master manipulator', details three occasions in which she alleges Prince Andrew had sex with her, including at Ghislaine Maxwell's house in London.
This new volume adds to the ongoing embarrassment for Prince Andrew, who reached a financial settlement with Ms Giuffre in 2022 and has always denied any wrongdoing.
In her reflections, Giuffre captures the moment she met Andrew in London in March 2001 when she was only 17, a meeting organized by Maxwell. She describes Andrew's inappropriate demeanor and how he interacted with her as if he had a privileged claim to her.
Furthermore, the memoir explores the dynamics of her relationship with Epstein, illustrating the exploitation she and others faced. Giuffre explains her struggles with mental health, recounting her use of tranquilizers to cope with the abuse and manipulation by people in Epstein's circle.
As the memoir is set to be released, it sheds further light on a well-known scandal that has surrounded the British royal family, particularly the Duke of York, whose actions have led to significant public and media scrutiny.
