Virginia Giuffre’s family ‘strongly urge’ King to meet with them on US state visit

The family of Virginia Giuffre has issued a statement urging King Charles to meet with them on an upcoming state visit to the US.

The King and Queen will visit the United States this month despite ongoing tensions between Sir Keir Starmer and Donald Trump over the war in Iran.

In a statement to BBC Newsnight on Tuesday (31 March), Giuffre’s siblings Sky and Amanda Roberts pleaded with the King to meet with them and other survivors to “hear what we have to say”.

“[We] are hopeful that conversation with survivors and their families will continue to elicit decisive action from the British government against the co-conspirators of Jeffrey Epstein,” the family said.

The late Ms Giuffre, who died by suicide in 2025, accused Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor of sexual abuse, which he vehemently denies.
