What's going on with Prince Andrew sex accuser Virginia Giuffre?

The woman who triggered the massive sex trafficking probe into billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein and his pal Prince Andrew is supposed to be dead.

Virginia Giuffre, 41, made the shock announcement Sunday on Instagram.

She told followers she would be dead in four days from injuries suffered in an Australian school bus crash. But here she is.

Now, it’s emerged that Giuffre — who claims she was forced into underage sex with Andrew when she was just 17 — had been charged with breaching a family violence restraining order.

Those charges were filed just days before the horror crash. She entered no plea at a courthouse near Perth. She allegedly breached the restraining order against her estranged husband on March 14.

Giuffre claimed she had been sex trafficked around the world after being plucked from her job as a towel girl at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort by Epstein’s second banana, socialite Ghislaine Maxwell.

She had been slated to be back in court on April 9, but that may now be in doubt because of her injuries.

In the meantime, husband Robert Giuffre is also in trouble with the cops. He has been charged with inadequate storage for guns, as well as reckless driving exceeding the speed limit by 27 mph in September 2024. He was fined and lost his licence for six months over the driving charge.

The Giuffres have been married for 22 years and no longer reside in the same abode.

The UK Sun reports that Virginia has been struggling due to “not being able to see her kids.”

On March 22, before the accident, she posted: “My beautiful babies have no clue how much I love them and they’re being poisoned with lies. I miss them so very much.

“I have been through hell and back in my 41 years but this is incredibly hurting me worse than anything else. Hurt me, abuse me but don’t take my babies. My heart is shattered and every day that passes my sadness only deepens.”

Two days later, a bus slammed into her vehicle. On Sunday, she said she was suffering from kidney failure and that she had just four days to live.

But cops were doubtful, describing the crash as “minor” and without injuries. No charges were issued against either driver.

Giuffre posted a selfie of herself from a hospital bed, looking bruised.

Her family said in a statement: “Virginia thanks everyone for the outpouring of love and support. She is overwhelmed with gratitude. Today, she remains in serious condition while receiving medical care.”

Giuffre has been out of the news since settling a lawsuit with Prince Andrew in February 2022 worth an estimated $20 million. He denied any wrongdoing but still paid out.

The Duke of York claimed he severed his deep ties with Epstein in 2010. However, emails emerging earlier this year revealed that Andrew contacted the billionaire in 2010 with the cheery missive: “Keep in close touch and we’ll play some more soon.”

Epstein died in a Manhattan jail in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.

Meanwhile, the prince’s former girlfriend is betting her ex-paramour’s accuser won’t die from injuries allegedly suffered in the crash.

Lady Victoria Hervey said: “Virginia Giuffre is a fantasist. It’s been a long, drawn-out process these last few years, but it’s unravelling. Her lies are being exposed. Let’s see in three days, but I bet she will still be alive.

“I re-posted the Karma (post) because I felt, well you know, she deserves it. But I also knew in my head that she was lying.”

Hervey added that Giuffre’s estranged husband “knows the truth.”

“If Virginia Giuffre really does have days to live, then a complete confession is needed,” she posted.

“I don’t believe it though, the FBI are on her right now and arrest warrants are coming. She’s conveniently dying to evade jail.”
