‘There’s only one of us telling the truth’
Roberts Giuffre condemns Duke in graphic tell-all
PRINCE Andrew rushed to notorious paedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged madam for help at 5.50am when one of their former underage sex slaves first raised accusations against him.
In a bombshell UK documentary aired yesterday morning Australian time, Cairns-based woman Virginia Roberts Giuffre has called “BS” on Prince Andrew’s denials of her claim that she was forced to have sex with him while she was underage.
She has torn down Prince Andrew’s rejection of her account, saying she was forced to sleep with him by convicted paedophile Epstein and his girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell.
Epstein and Ms Maxwell were friends of Prince Andrew, who stayed in the financier’s New York mansion after he was convicted of procuring sex with minors.
The BBC has now uncovered early-morning emails between Prince Andrew and Ms Maxwell from 2015 in which the Duke asked her for information about Ms Roberts Giuffre.
“Let me know when we can talk, got some specific questions about Virginia Roberts,” the Duke wrote to Ms Maxwell.
Ms Maxwell replied: “Have some info – call me when you have a moment.”
The revelations the Duke sought the help of an alleged child abuser to ward off allegations against himself will heighten calls for him to testify to the FBI on his dealings with Epstein.
He has already been stripped of his royal duties and public funds.
The BBC also revealed that five other women claimed the Duke knew about the abuse Epstein was inflicting on them.
In a heated and graphic interview, Ms Roberts Giuffre
broke down several times while describing the shame she felt after being forced to have sex with the Duke.
“There was a bath and it started there, then it led into the bedroom,” she said.
“It didn’t last very long ... it was disgusting.
“He wasn’t mean or anything but … he got up and he said thanks and walked out.
“I sat there in bed, just horrified and ashamed.”
Ms Roberts Giuffre, 35, claims she has a vivid recollection of the time she spent with Prince Andrew, which began at London nightclub Tramp, where they danced.
“It was horrible and this guy was sweating all over me,” she said.
The Duke of York has denied he ever met Ms Roberts Giuffre, despite a photograph of the pair taken in 2001 where had his arm around her bare midriff.
And he also said he could not have been the “sweating” man Ms Roberts Giuffre described, because he could not perspire due to an overdose of adrenaline he suffered in the Falklands War.
Ms Roberts Giuffre – who also claims she was forced to have sex with the Duke two more times in New York and the Caribbean – said she was stunned at the denials.
“The people on the inside are going to keep coming up with these ridiculous excuses,” she told Panorama.
“I mean come on, I’m calling BS on this, because that’s what it is.
“He knows what happened. I know what happened, and there’s only one of us telling the truth, and I know that’s me.”
