Virginia Roberts Giuffre told one of Jeffrey Epstein’s victims that she had sex with Prince Andrew, a witness in Ghislaine Maxwell’s trial Carolyn Andriano has claimed.

Ms. Giuffre has filed a lawsuit claiming she was forced to have sex with Jeffrey Epstein’s friends when she was 17, including the Duke of York, who denies the claims.

If the case goes ahead, the Queen’s second son will face a full trial before a jury in New York.

Now, Maxwell victim Andriano has made the bombshell claim that Ms. Giuffre, then 17, texted her from London in March 2001 claiming to have had dinner and sex with the prince.

In the new interview, Andriano made further claims Ms. Giuffre showed her the now-infamous photo of Prince Andrew with his arm around her in Maxwell’s central London apartment.

She told the Daily Mail that Ms. Giuffre – then Miss Roberts – texted her to boast that she was going for dinner with Andrew, Maxwell, and Epstein.

Adriano said Giuffre showed her the photo of herself posing in a pink tank top with Andrew’s arm wrapped around her waist and Maxwell grinning in the background.

Andriano said she believes the photo was on a cellphone, which were just gaining popularity at the time. She said it could also have been a digital photo or a disposable snap.

“Virginia just couldn’t believe it,” Andriano told the Mail. “Maxwell had told her she had a surprise for her and I guess the surprise was Prince Andrew. She was excited. I guess when you’re meeting somebody that famous, I would have been excited, too.

“She said they had dinner and they had sex. She didn’t say anything about what they ate or where they were — that’s not what we were talking about. It was just that she couldn’t believe she got to sleep with Prince Andrew.”

Andriano testified at Maxwell’s trial that it was Giuffre who introduced her to Epstein and Maxwell when they were teens growing up in Florida in the early 2000s.

She said she was sexually abused by Epstein at his Palm Beach mansion hundreds of times over the next few years, during so-called massage sessions that Maxwell helped arrange.

Andriano told the Mail that she blames Giuffre for getting her involved with the depraved duo.

“She knew how old I was, and she knew I came from a broken home,” Andriano said about her former friend.

“I don’t think she (Giuffre) deserves any compensation. I don’t think she was coerced into doing anything,” Andriano charged.

Giuffre, a vocal accuser of Epstein and Maxwell, claims the sick pair sex-trafficked her to Andrew three times — in London, New York and on Epstein’s private island in the Caribbean. Her case against the 61-year-old prince looks set to go to trial later this year.
Andriano said Giuffre never spoke about the encounter with Andrew again after their initial conversations.

“I never got to ask Virginia about Prince Andrew again after she told me about it. She’d told me never to repeat it again,” she said.

Andriano said she asked her friend if she had gotten paid, but never got a response.

At Maxwell’s trial in lower Manhattan, Andriano told the jury that Giuffre had told her she could make some money by visiting Epstein’s mansion and giving him a massage.

During her first visit to the estate, she said Epstein stripped naked in front of her and Giuffre in his massage room and laid on the massage face down.

“And I looked at Virginia and she eye-motioned to me to say, ‘don’t worry, it will be OK.’ Forty-five minutes into the massage, he flipped over. I stepped back and Virginia climbed on top of him and proceeded to have sex with him,” Andriano recalled.

“I didn’t know what to do or say or where to go, so I sat on the couch and watched until it was finished,” she said. “We walked back downstairs and Maxwell asked, “How did everything go?” Virginia gave her a look to say it was a great session and that’s when Maxwell asked me for my telephone number.”

Maxwell handed her three $100 bills for her service, Andriano said.

Now a mom of five, Andriano told the Mail she was proud that her testimony had helped convict the disgraced socialite of luring and grooming her and other underage girls to be abused by Epstein.

‘I’m not ashamed at being a victim of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell,” she said. “For other girls that have been victimized, I want them to know that it is OK to come out and tell somebody even if you don’t want to be identified and the sooner the better.”
