Last-Minute Bombshell: Prince Andrew Detectives Racing to US to Grill Virginia Giuffre’s Family
In a dramatic new twist in one of the most high-profile royal investigations in decades, detectives from Thames Valley Police are preparing to fly to the United States to speak with the family of Virginia Giuffre, the late accuser of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor.
The move comes after officers uncovered what sources describe as significant last-minute leads that could reshape key aspects of the ongoing probe. Giuffre, who passed away by suicide in April 2025 at the age of 41, had long alleged she was trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell and forced to have sexual encounters with Andrew on three separate occasions when she was just 17 years old. Andrew has consistently and strongly denied all allegations of wrongdoing.
According to reports, the officers plan to meet with Giuffre’s brother Sky Roberts and his wife Amanda Roberts. The discussions are not expected to be formal interviews, as the couple are not considered direct witnesses to the alleged events. Instead, authorities hope the conversations will provide valuable context and background surrounding Virginia’s experiences and statements. The family has been vocal in their support for the investigation since Andrew’s arrest earlier this year.
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor was arrested in February 2026 on suspicion of misconduct in a public office at his Sandringham home on his 66th birthday. He was later released under investigation. The probe has since broadened significantly, examining not only the sexual misconduct claims but also his decade-long role as Britain’s trade envoy, where questions have arisen about potential fraud, corruption, bullying, and perverting the course of justice.
Thames Valley Police have been actively widening their inquiry, seeking original materials from US authorities related to the vast cache of Epstein documents released in recent years. Officers are also expected to speak with Andrew’s former protection officers and have already requested files from the Metropolitan Police. Assistant Chief Constable Oliver Wright has publicly encouraged victims and witnesses to come forward, emphasizing that the investigation is following all reasonable lines of inquiry.
The development arrives amid heightened global scrutiny of the Epstein network. Giuffre’s family expressed relief and renewed hope following Andrew’s arrest, stating that “no one is above the law, not even royalty.” Their willingness to engage with UK detectives underscores their continued commitment to seeking accountability on behalf of Virginia and other survivors.
This transatlantic trip signals a serious and methodical approach by British authorities determined to leave no stone unturned. While the full outcome remains uncertain, the latest moves suggest investigators believe fresh perspectives from those closest to Giuffre could prove pivotal in piecing together a more complete picture.
For the royal family and the public alike, the case continues to raise uncomfortable questions about power, privilege, and justice. As detectives prepare to cross the Atlantic, many are watching closely to see whether this latest chapter will bring long-awaited clarity — or even more shocking revelations.
