In the abuse trial against him, Prince Andrew agreed with plaintiff Virginia Giuffre to pay an amount of several million euros. Now he’s paying off his debt to Giuffre – but it needs royal support.
The British royal has reportedly paid off her debt after agreeing to settle the Prince Andrew abuse scandal. Britain’s PA news agency reported that Andrew had made his payments to US plaintiff Virginia Giuffre. The civil proceedings, for which the 62-year-old was still threatened before an out-of-court settlement, is now nearing its final conclusion. The court said the relevant documents were sent on Monday. Only the signature of the competent New York judge is still pending.
Prince Andrew reached a settlement with the plaintiffs in mid-February, thus avoiding a reputation-damaging civil lawsuit in the United States. Giuffre accused the royal of repeatedly sexually abusing her as a minor 20 years ago. Reports say that Andrew will have to pay an eight-figure sum, but there is no official comment. An amount of 7 to 12 million pounds (8.4 to 14.5 million euros) was discussed in the media. Some observers see the deal as an admission of guilt by Andrew, even though he has always vehemently denied the allegations.
According to a recent report, the payer is not Andrew himself, but his brother Prince Charles. According to this, Prince Andrew should not have enough money at the moment. British newspaper “The Sun” reported that Prince Andrew is now about to sell an expensive property in Switzerland in order to return the money. According to the newspaper, if Andrew should not raise the amount, he risks losing money from the inheritance of Queen Elizabeth II, which is said to have paid his court costs.
