A 38-year-old has filed a lawsuit against Prince Andrew, the Queen’s son. As a minor she was abused by him.
London – Virginia Giuffre has made serious allegations. The 38-year-old is suing Prince Andrew, the second eldest son of Queen Elizabeth II. He sexually abused her as a minor, said Giuffre. The TV broadcaster ABC News reported, citing information from Giuffres lawyers.
This is not the first allegation against the member of the Royal Family. The 38-year-old had publicly accused Prince Andrew several times of having sexually abused her.

Royals: Queen’s son involved in Epstein scandal?
As international media unanimously report, the case is said to be related to the Jeffrey Epstein abuse scandal. Prince Andrew is said to have been a guest of Epstein several times on his property in the Caribbean and the USA. Prince Andrew insists to this day that he knew nothing of Epstein’s machinations, who was convicted as a sex offender.
He has promised to the New York Public Prosecutor’s Office that he will help in coming to terms with what happened. However, he has not yet given any testimony. Prince Andrew was recently in the spotlight in connection with the Epstein scandal. That is why he has since resigned his public duties in the Royals family and has been avoiding public appearances ever since. (tu / dpa)
