WORLD IN SHOCK: Prince Andrew Accuser Virginia Giuffre’s Heartbreaking Final Posts Emerge Before Her Tragic Death by Suicide at Just 41 — A Devastating End to the Woman at the Center of the Royal–Epstein Scandal
Virginia Giuffre dead: Prince Andrew and Jeffrey Epstein accuser dies aged 41 just weeks after troubling Instagram posts. Virginia Giuffre shared a string of heartbreaking final social media posts just weeks before her tragic death by suicide.
The Prince Andrew accuser, 41, was found dead at her home in Western Australia last night as her family paid a touching tribute to the mum-of-three.
On April 14, Virginia posted a link to Gotye’s breakup song Somebody That I Used To Know on her Instagram.
It was followed by a black screen with no caption or audio. She later pinned the story post to her profile with a broken heart emoji in the middle of two stars. It remains the only pinned story on Virginia’s account.
The last image shared to the Instagram profile was a photo of Virginia in a hospital bed with heavy bruising.
She claimed she had suffered kidney failure, was fatally ill, and only had four days left to live after being hit by a bus in Australia. But the story took a twist when Western Australian Police described the crash as minor and said no major injuries were reported. She later claimed the incident was blown out of proportion due to a misunderstanding.
Police confirmed emergency services were called to reports of an unresponsive woman at a property in the Perth suburb of Neergabby on Friday night. Initial investigations are not treating her death as suspicious.
Tributes to a ‘fierce warrior’
The heartbroken family of Virginia announced that the “toll of abuse became unbearable” for the brave mum in her final hours.
In a touching tribute, Virginia’s family said: “Giuffre lost her life to suicide, after being a lifelong victim of sexual abuse and sex trafficking.
“Virginia was a fierce warrior in the fight against sexual abuse and sex trafficking. She was the light that lifted so many survivors.
“Despite all the adversity she faced in her life, she shone so bright. She will be missed beyond measure.”
Virginia was known as one of the most outspoken accusers of convicted sex offenders Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.
She alleged they trafficked her to the Duke of York when she was 17.
In a lawsuit made by Virginia she claimed she had sex with Andrew on three occasions – a claim the duke has always denied.
The rest of their tribute read: “There are no words that can express the grave loss we feel today with the passing of our sweet Virginia.
“She was heroic and will always be remembered for her incredible courage and loving spirit.
“In the end, the toll of abuse is so heavy that it became unbearable for Virginia to handle its weight. We know that she is with the angels.”
Virginia’s brother Danny Wilson also paid tribute to his sister on Facebook with a photo of the pair and another man.
And her long-time publicist Dini von Mueffling said her client was “one of the most extraordinary human beings I have ever had the honour to know”.
“Deeply loving, wise, and funny, she was a beacon to other survivors and victims,” she added. “It was the privilege of a lifetime to represent her.”
Sigrid McCawley, a lawyer for Virginia, said in a statement: “Her courage pushed me to fight harder, and her strength was awe-inspiring.
“The world has lost an amazing human being today. Rest in peace, my sweet angel.”
Fighting for justice
American-born Virginia lived in Australia for years, becoming an advocate for sex trafficking survivors after emerging as a central figure in the prolonged downfall of disgraced paedophile financier Epstein.
The mum also sued Prince Andrew in 2021, claiming she was trafficked and forced to have sex with the Duke on three occasions when she was a teen.
It was the first time she had brought action against him after going public with the allegations in 2011.
She claimed she was trafficked and forced to have sex with Andrew for the first time at Maxwell’s house in London after a night out at the club Tramp.
Virginia also claimed she was forced to have sex with the Duke on at least two further occasions by both Maxwell and Epstein.
Her legal team argued she was a “frightened, vulnerable child with no one there to protect her” when she was allegedly abused by Andrew, saying “no person, whether President or Prince, is above the law”.
She claimed she feared for her life when she was allegedly forced to have sex with Andrew, who is accused of having been aware of her age and status as a “sex-trafficking victim”.
The Duke has ignored repeated calls to tell US authorities what he knows about Epstein’s criminal behaviour.
In his notorious Newsnight interview five years ago, Andrew vowed to help the probe into Epstein and his warped madam Maxwell.
But the royal has remained silent – and claimed he knew nothing of Epstein’s crimes despite their friendship.
Andrew has denied any wrongdoing and has denied allegations made against him.
Epstein took his own life in jail while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges in 2019. Maxwell is serving a 20-year prison sentence for conspiring with him to sexually abuse minors.
