PRINCE Andrew will go grouse shooting at Balmoral tomorrow as he is forced into hiding to duck a damning US lawsuit.
He will join the party on the Queen’s Scottish estate for the traditional annual Glorious Twelfth, the first day of the season.
But pressure is mounting on the Duke of York, 61, who will want to avoid being served with a legal complaint filed in a New York court on Monday.
Lawyers in the US suggest he could wriggle out of the case if he stays in hiding, by dodging receipt of the legal paperwork.
Virginia Giuffre, now 38, is seeking “significant” damages against Andrew, claiming she was brought to the UK by paedo Jeffrey Epstein in 2001 to have sex with the royal.
Lawyer Spencer Kuvin, who represents several of Epstein’s victims, said: “They have 120 days to get him served with a copy of the complaint.”
More women will testify against Andrew with alleged new evidence linking him to his sex accuser, it was claimed.
They are believed to include Johanna Sjoberg, 41, the only other accuser to have come forward to allege sexual contact with Andrew, who strongly denies the claims against him.
