Prince Andrew’s Story Lacks “Credibility”, According To Palace Aides

Despite Andrew, 61, vigorously insisting to have no knowledge of meeting Giuffre and “categorically” denying all her claims, palace aides told the media outlet that there are “inconsistencies” and issues with the amount of “credibility” that can be given to his story.

According to the accuser, Andrew had “numerous” sexual encounters with her, beginning in 2001. Giuffre is one of dozens of sex slaves groomed by late convicted pedophile and financier Jeffrey Epstein, per the civil suit.

“Twenty years ago, Prince Andrew’s wealth, power, position, and connections enabled him to abuse a frightened, vulnerable child with no one there to protect her,” the complaint states. “During each of the aforementioned incidents, [Giuffre] was compelled by express or implied threats by Epstein, Maxwell, and/or Prince Andrew to engage in sexual acts with Prince Andrew and feared death or physical injury to herself or another and other repercussions for disobeying Epstein, Maxwell, and Prince Andrew due to their powerful connections, wealth, and authority.”

Giuffre, who is now 38 and a married mother, is suing the prince for punitive damages.
