Virginia Giuffre, the woman who famously accused Prince Andrew of sexual abuse, has died at the age of 41, her family confirmed. In a heartbreaking statement, they revealed she died by suicide at her farm in Western Australia on Friday, April 25. “She lost her life to suicide, after being a lifelong victim of sexual abuse and sex trafficking,” the family wrote, calling Virginia a fierce warrior who inspired countless survivors.
Authorities said Giuffre was found unconscious and could not be revived, though her death is not considered suspicious. In her final years, she spoke openly about her alleged abuse by Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, as well as her accusations against Prince Andrew — claims he has consistently denied. Yet just three weeks before her death, Virginia posted a chilling update about her health that hinted at a darker turn no one saw coming.
