PRINCE Andrew’s sex accuser Virginia Giuffre had a dig at Ghislaine Maxwell about being banged up as she awaits trial for sexual offences involving minors.

The former teen “sex slave” of Jeffrey Epstein, who claims she was loaned out to the Duke by the paedophile, posted a poolside selfie on Twitter.

She wrote: “Hey Ghislane Maxwell [sic] just sitting outside, taking some time to de-stress after you and your lawyer’s shenanigan­s. “Like the view?” She continued: “If you didn’t abuse 1000’s of minors, you would not be staring at your toilet as a piece of artwork. #TimesUp #SpeakOut

HAPPY Meghan and Harry #WhoIsNext #KidsToo.” However, Maxwell’s criminal indictment only relates to three girls, for offences alleged to have been committed between 1994 and 1997. She has pleaded not guilty.

Giuffre also shared snap of a palm-fringed pool arrested or charged in relation to it. Last month the socialite, who is the daughter of crooked media tycoon Robert Maxwell, was arrested by the FBI in New Hampshire on suspicion of grooming and abusing three girls under the age of 18.

She has since been indicted on four charges that relate to 1994-1997, when she was, according to the indictment, among Epstein’s closest associates and in an “intimate relationsh­ip” with him

– before Andrew met the financier in 1999.

The other two charges she faces are allegation­s of perjury in 2016.

If found guilty, she faces up to 35 years in prison. Maxwell, currently being held wear for their wedding in May 2018. Palace protocol dictates that appointmen­ts must be made to access the Queen’s jewels.

But Harry is said to have put pressure on courtiers to persuade the Queen’s dresser Angela Kelly, 52, to come to London and unlock the cupboard where the tiara is in the tough Metropolit­an Detention Centre in Brooklyn, is due for trial in New York in July 2021.

The claims by Giuffre come from a civil case and not the criminal case against Maxwell.

The Duke, 60, and his legal team have vehemently denied Giuffre’s claims that he slept with her. He said during his BBC Newsnight appearance last November that he does not recall ever meeting her.
