Epstein killed himself in his jail cell earlier this month and escaped prosecution
Virginia Roberts said Prince Andrew knew ‘exactly what he has done’ and urged him to ‘come clean’ on Tuesday after speaking at a hearing with other Jeffrey Epstein victims.
Her message to the Duke of York comes after repeated statements from Buckingham Palace that he is ‘appalled’ by the allegations against Epstein and has done nothing wrong.
Roberts famously claimed in a 2015 lawsuit that she had sex with Andrew when she was 17 in London. She claimed Epstein kept her as his sex slave and robbed her of her childhoods.
Andrew has always denied her allegations.
On Tuesday, Roberts spoke with dozens of other women who had been invited to court by Judge Richard Berman who had been handling Epstein’s criminal human trafficking case which, in light of his suicide earlier this month, will now draw to a close.
Roberts, now 35, said Epstein kept her as his ‘sex slave’ when she was a teenager. She is shown, right, in an infamous photograph with Prince Andrew and Ghislaine Maxwell
