💨 Abstract

Prince Andrew, under pressure from King Charles III, surrendered his Duke of York title and other royal honors after damaging allegations in Virginia Giuffre’s memoir, which accused him of sexual assault. Giuffre claimed Andrew abused her multiple times, facilitated by Jeffrey Epstein. Despite denying the claims, Andrew settled Giuffre’s lawsuit for over $12 million. His ties to Epstein, including post-conviction meetings, further tarnished his reputation.
