In a memoir released after her death, Giuffre, who died by suicide last April, alleged Epstein arranged three encounters between her and Andrew, beginning when she was 17. She also wrote that Andrew “believed having sex with me was his birthright.” Leaked emails also appeared to show Andrew remained in touch with Epstein after publicly claiming he had ended all contact.
Andrew has repeatedly denied wrongdoing.
Stripping of titles and future plans
In mid-October, Andrew issued a statement announcing he would voluntarily stop using his titles. Yet only weeks later, Buckingham Palace confirmed the King had already begun formal proceedings to fully remove all royal titles and HRH styling from his brother, a decision reportedly made after Andrew crossed what insiders described as “the ultimate act of disrespect” toward the Queen.
On November 3, the changes were made official through Letters Patent.
