Prince Andrew is reportedly “broken” after his reputation took a hit and he agreed to pay his rape accuser, Virginia Giuffre £12 million.
“He is down, he is broken. If he wants to dress up once in a while in a naval uniform, then let him,” a source told The Mirror. “His reputation is in tatters, his public life is over. He is a walking embarrassment.”
The Queen of England is reportedly helping him pay the millions.
“He hasn’t been convicted of anything. I have no idea whether he is guilty or innocent, so I think he has paid quite a heavy price,” the source added.
‘SURVIVING EPSTEIN’ TRAILER
After agreeing to the settlement, the Prince’s legal team issued a statement.
“Prince Andrew has never intended to malign Ms. Giuffre’s character, and he accepts that she has suffered both as an established victim of abuse and as a result of unfair public attacks. It is known that Jeffrey Epstein trafficked countless young girls over many years,” the statement read in part.
“Prince Andrew regrets his association with Epstein, and commends the bravery of Ms Giuffre and other survivors in standing up for themselves and others. He pledges to demonstrate his regret for his association with Epstein by supporting the fight against the evils of sex trafficking, and by supporting its victims.”
