Virginia Giuffre has expressed her heartfelt appreciation for the overwhelming support she has received after revealing that she has been given just days to live. The 30-year-old, known for accusing Prince Andrew of sexual assault, shared her distressing news on Instagram following a serious car accident involving a school bus.
On March 24, Giuffre’s vehicle was struck by a bus in rural Western Australia. Initially, she returned home with minor injuries, but her condition quickly deteriorated, leading to her hospitalization. In a statement released by her family, they confirmed that she is in serious condition and has been told she may have only four days left to live due to renal failure.
Her family described her as "banged up and bruised" and noted that the police were called to the scene but did not send anyone to assist. They stated that the bus driver left the scene with a bus full of children, promising to file a report later.
In her Instagram post, Giuffre revealed the gravity of her situation, saying she had been informed of her renal failure and was ready to go, but wanted to see her children one last time. Despite the grim news, her family emphasized her gratitude for the outpouring of support from the public.
Giuffre has been in the spotlight for her allegations against Prince Andrew, which she made in a civil lawsuit filed in August 2021. She claimed that Andrew had sex with her when she was just 17, after being trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein. The Duke of York has denied these allegations and has not faced any criminal charges. In March 2022, it was reported that Giuffre and Andrew reached a financial settlement in their civil case.
As her family navigates this challenging time, they have urged the public to respect their privacy while they focus on her care and recovery. Giuffre’s situation has highlighted the ongoing challenges faced by survivors of abuse and the importance of support during difficult times.
