Virginia Giuffre, whose dying wish is reportedly to see her children one last time, is understood to have been involved in a crash, and has kidney failure among other injuries
Virginia Giuffre’s lawyer has admitted the mum faces “a very bad situation” following a crash.
The 41-year-old woman who accused Prince Andrew of abuse told how she has been given just days to live after being hit by a school bus. She said she is suffering from kidney failure in the aftermath of the crash and was due to moved to a specialist hospital for treatment.
Brad Edwards, who represented Ms Giuffre in her previous legal cases, said it was a “very bad situation”. The lawyer added he and Ms Giuffre are “hoping for better news in the coming days” but he hopes Ms Giuffre will pull through with good medical care.
Mum-of-three Ms Giuffre, who has been at the centre of one of the most high-profile sexual abuse scandals in modern history, posted a photograph from her hospital bed on Sunday night. It showed her badly bruised face, another injury she is thought to have sustained in the crash.

Ms Giuffre’s heartbreaking final wish is to see her children “one last time”. The mum, originally from Sacramento, California, posted on social media she was ready to move to the specialist hospital – but “just not until I see my babies one last time.”
The woman, trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein in around 2000 when she was approximately 16, wrote in full on Instagram: “They’ve given me four days to live, transferring me to a specialist hospital in urology. This year has been the worst start to a new year, but I won’t bore anyone with the details.
“But I think it’s important to note that when a school bus driver comes at you driving 110kmh as we were slowing down for a turn, that no matter what your car is made of, it might as well be a tin can.”
Ms Giuffre’s last known address was a £1million beachfront property in Ocean Reef, North Perth, where she lived with her husband, Robert Giuffre, and their three teenage children. The couple, who had been married for 22 years, are now reportedly estranged.
Ms Giuffre alleged that billionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein trafficked her for sex at the age of 16 after she was recruited by his associate Ghislaine Maxwell while working as a locker room attendant at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida. She claims she was forced to have sex with Prince Andrew on at least three occasions when she was 17, including while in London.
Prince Andrew has always strongly denied the allegations. However, in 2022, he reached an out-of-court settlement in New York with Ms Giuffre, reportedly worth £12million, after she sued for sexual abuse. The agreement did not admit liability, but the Duke of York agreed to pay an unspecified sum to Ms Giuffre and her victims’ rights charity.
