In 2022, Andrew reached a financial settlement with Giuffre in a civil lawsuit, reportedly valued at around £12 million. At the time, he maintained that he had never met her.

Giuffre died by suicide in April 2025, bringing renewed attention to the long-running case and its impact on those involved.

Despite the ongoing controversy, the recent review confirms that Andrew will continue to hold the Freedom of the City of London, as the honour was granted through inheritance and cannot legally be revoked under current rules.
