Virginia Giuffre’s memoir, “Nobody’s Girl,” provides a devastating account of her experience as a victim of Jeffrey Epstein’s sex-trafficking ring, detailing encounters with powerful elites and the long-lasting trauma she endured. Published posthumously, the book topped bestseller lists shortly after its release.

1. Prince Andrew’s Alleged Encounters
Giuffre details being trafficked to have sex with Prince Andrew three times, twice when she was 17. The first alleged encounter, on March 10, 2001, included the Prince reportedly guessing her age and noting his daughters were “just a little younger.” She describes the outfit she wore—a pink crop-top and multicoloured jeans—which she was wearing in the now-infamous photo with Andrew. She states Epstein paid her $15,000 for that night. Prince Andrew has consistently denied ever meeting Giuffre, but the allegations ultimately prompted him to renounce his titles.
2. A Friendly Encounter with Donald Trump
Giuffre recalls meeting Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida in the summer of 2000, when she was 16 and working as a locker-room attendant. She describes Trump as “friendly” and states he offered her a job as a babysitter for his friends. This subsequent babysitting work for “the elite” is where Epstein’s accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, reportedly noticed and began grooming her.
3. Miscarriage at Age 17
Giuffre reveals that she was admitted to an emergency room in New York in the summer of 2001, not long after participating in an alleged orgy involving Epstein and Andrew. Epstein lied to staff about her age, and when she was discharged, he informed her she had suffered a miscarriage. She notes that neither Epstein nor the men he trafficked her to “never wore a condom.” She struggled to come to terms with getting pregnant and losing a fetus “without even knowing it was happening.”
4. The Mystery Politician
The memoir describes a sexual assault by a politician Giuffre does not name, fearing retribution. There is a notable discrepancy between editions: the UK version refers to the abuser as a “former minister,” while the US version describes him as a “prime minister” who “brutally raped” her. The identity of this powerful figure remains undisclosed in the book.
5. Life as an Activist and Survivor
Giuffre details the harassment she faced after going public, including intimidation outside her Colorado home, which led her to keep a “loaded revolver on the nightstand.” Believing her family was in danger, she moved to Australia in 2015. She expresses her dedication to raising her voice to make it “easier to punish those who victimise others” and plans to use her multi-million dollar settlement from Prince Andrew to help her organization aid sex-trafficking victims. She also clarifies that she chose not to name some alleged abusers in the memoir to protect her three children.
