Three key allegations Prince Andrew accuser Virginia Roberts will make against royal as he faces rape lawsuit

THESE are the three allegations Prince Andrew accuser Virginia Roberts is expected to make against the under-fire royal as he faces rape charges.

Roberts, who now goes by Giuffre, has accused the prince of sexually assaulting her on three occasions when she was under the age of 18.

In court documents, Giuffre says she was the victim of sex trafficking and abuse by paedophile former billionaire Jeffrey Epstein from age of 16 and was “lent out” to rich and powerful men, including the Duke of York.

It comes as the case comes for a New Judge judge as Andrew tries to get it thrown out of court.

His lawyers claim a secret 2009 deal Giuffre made with Epstein, which was released yesterday for the first time, exempts him from legal action.

In it she agreed to end all action against “second parties” – including Epstein employees – but does not name the Duke.

LONDON

Giuffre claims Andrew sexually abused her in a London flat in 2001.

In a 2019 interview with the BBC, she said she was introduces to Andrew by Epstein and his then-girlfriend and recently convicted sex predator Ghislaine Maxwell, who allegedly took them to a night club.

On the car ride back, she alleges that Maxwell told her to “do for Andrew what I do for Jeffrey” and claims that she had sex with the Duke later that evening in Maxwell’s house in Belgravia.

Speaking about that evening in the club, Giuffre said of Andrew: “He is the most hideous dancer I’ve ever seen in my life.

“His sweat was like it was raining basically everywhere.”

The Duke told the BBC he doesn’t recall meeting Giuffre – then Roberts – and had a medical condition that meant he could not sweat and claims the nightclub visit and sex “didn’t happen”.

Instead, he claims he was looking after his kids and had taken Princess Beatrice to a party at Pizza Express in Woking and spent the rest of the evening at home.

But the allegations against Andrew failed to be buried after a photo appeared showing him with his arm around the minor’s waist in Maxwell’s home.

Andrew said he didn’t recall the photo ever being taken and questioned whether it was his hand in the picture.

NEW YORK

Giuffre alleges the prince had sex with her again in Epstein’s New York mansion and claims Andrew knew her age and that she was a sex-trafficking victim, court documents show.

LITTLE ST JAMES, US VIRGIN ISLANDS

The sexual abuse survivor claims Andrew had sex with her for a third time on Esptein’s private island of Little St James – dubbed “paedo Island” – in the US Virgin Islands.

Little Saint James is the centre of many of the allegations against Epstein and Maxwell

The island is believed to be where much of his sexual abuse was committed and where he allegedly entertained powerful friends such as Bill Clinton and Prince Andrew.

Victims have claimed to have witnessed sex taking place openly on the island, such as Maxwell having “girl on girl” orgies by the pool. 

Andrew strongly denies any allegations against him and said he had no knowledge of any wrongdoing while friends with Maxwell and Epstein.

Clinton has also denied he ever spent time on the island – blasting claims in 2020 as “lies” as they resurfaced in Netflix docuseries Filthy Rich.

FBI agents raided the island in 2019 as they built a case against the billionaire sex trafficker – and the island is believed to still be owned by Epstein’s estate.

Lawyers for the duke — who said he cannot sweat — are arguing in New York that Giuffre’s civil lawsuit should be dropped.

They claim a secret 2009 deal she made with Epstein exempts him from legal action.

Brad Edwards, an attorney who has represented dozens of victims of the twisted couple – including Andrew accuser Giuffre, said he believes the Duke of York will now have no choice to face the allegations against him.

Edwards told The Celeb Report Online: “Maxwell’s conviction is long overdue but welcomed by the hundreds of victims of what is probably the most powerful and complex sex-trafficking operation to ever exist.

“Her friend, Prince Andrew, has had many chances to volunteer the information he knows and help the many victims. 

“He has chosen to position himself on the Maxwell/Epstein team; a team that no longer exists to protect him.

“He really has two choices – come forward voluntarily with all the information he has and answer questions under oath or come forward involuntarily and answer more questions.”
