The posthumous memoir of Jeffrey Epstein accuser Virginia Roberts Giuffre has achieved staggering commercial success, selling more than one million copies worldwide just two months after its publication.
A Posthumous Publication Ignites Fresh Controversy
Virginia Roberts Giuffre's book, titled "Nobody's Girl," was released posthumously following her tragic death in April 2025 at the age of 41. Co-authored with seasoned journalist Amy Wallace, the memoir details Giuffre's life and her central role in the international scandal surrounding the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
The book's rapid sales, reaching the million-copy milestone globally by mid-December 2025, demonstrate a significant public appetite for her first-hand account. This commercial triumph has effectively reignited intense scrutiny on the British royal family, specifically Prince Andrew.
Core Allegations and Royal Repercussions
Within the pages of "Nobody's Girl," Giuffre reiterates her long-standing allegation that she was forced to have sex with Prince Andrew when she was 17 years old, a claim the Duke of York has consistently and vehemently denied.
The renewed attention comes despite a previous legal settlement. Prince Andrew paid Giuffre millions of pounds in an out-of-court settlement in 2022, a resolution that did not include an admission of liability. Furthermore, following the settlement and the reputational damage of the scandal, King Charles III stripped his brother of his remaining military titles and royal patronages. The monarch also evicted Andrew from his royal residence at Buckingham Palace.
Wider Calls for Transparency and Justice
The memoir's success has amplified calls for greater transparency from US authorities. There is now increased pressure on the US Department of Justice to release sealed files related to the Jeffrey Epstein investigation. Epstein died in a New York prison cell in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges, a death ruled as suicide.
This public demand for information underscores a persistent global desire for answers and accountability surrounding Epstein's extensive network. The remarkable sales figures for Giuffre's book suggest her story continues to resonate powerfully, ensuring that the scandal remains firmly in the public eye and posing an ongoing challenge for the British monarchy.
