Epstein, a convicted pedophile, died in prison after hanging himself. Giuffre has claimed that Epstein forced her to have sex with Prince Andrew on three occasions when she was a minor. He has denied the charges.
Andrew’s legal team tried to have the case thrown out, but a judge refused. It is now scheduled to be heard in New York in the fall. After Andrews’s lawyers lost their bid to toss the case, they raised eyebrows by asking for a jury trial.

Many legal and royal experts believe that the bid for a jury trial is a way of forcing a settlement with his accuser. In response, Giuffre’s lawyer has stated that she has no intention of settling with Andrew unless he admits to having met her. To date he has stated that he has never met her and denies the charges against him.
After the jury date was set, Queen Elizabeth issued a statement that Andrew had been stripped of his title and patronages, and would face the court case as a private citizen.
Now royal expert Neil Sean is speculating that Kate Middleton could reach out to, “Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie in an attempt to get them to take on Prince Andrew’s roles and patronages.”
“On his personal YouTube Channel he said, “She is mulling it over and there is good reasons why. She doesn’t really want to be seen hurting anyone’s feelings and she had a very lengthy chat with someone very close to Prince Andrew because he does appear that the world is kicking him while he’s down.”
