Now, with the publication of Giuffre’s memoir Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice, more claims about her alleged encounters with Andrew are expected to come to light.
Ahead of its release, the prince issued a statement saying he had chosen to give up his remaining titles and honours to avoid distracting “from the work of His Majesty and the Royal Family.”
Among the titles relinquished is Duke of York, traditionally granted to the monarch’s second son. Despite calls for his princedom to be revoked — including from Giuffre’s brother, Sky Roberts — Andrew will still be referred to as Prince.
Only the reigning monarch has the authority to remove such a title, a process that would require King Charles to issue legal documents known as letters patent.

Speaking on ITV News, Roberts urged the King to take that final step. “He does have the ability to strip him even further of the prince title, which we would call upon,” Roberts said. “I want to commend the King and I want to commend the UK for taking some action.”
Virginia Giuffre died by suicide at her home in Australia in April at the age of 41. Her memoir, now set for release on 21 October, is expected to reignite global discussion over her case — and the royal scandal that continues to haunt the House of Windsor.
