She said Andrew raped her on three occasions, including when she was underage, after Epstein trafficked her from Mar-a-Lago at age 16.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, Andrew paid millions of dollars to settle a civil sexual assault case with Giuffre. That year, he was stripped of most of his titles and removed from royal duties.<\/p>\n<p>Still, the release of Giuffre\u2019s posthumous memoir earlier this month, which details grisly abuse at the hands of Epstein and others, led the palace to go further: Days before the book was set to go out, Andrew said he would give up the title of the Duke of York.<\/p>\n<p>The memoir mentions Andrew 88 times, UK publication The Independent reported.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have decided, as I always have, to put my duty to my family and country first. I stand by my decision five years ago to stand back from public life,\u201d Andrew said in a statement at the time, in which he also \u201cvigorously\u201d denied the rape accusations.<\/p>\n<p>As other survivors press the US government for more transparency into the Epstein case, some US lawmakers, including Republicans, have suggested Andrew face prosecution for potential crimes committed on US soil.<\/p>\n<p>The former prince has not been charged with any crimes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Virginia Giuffre, who died by suicide in April, accused both Jeffrey Epstein and former Prince Andrew of abuse.
