Virginia Giuffre says she only has days to live after being struck by a school bus

In February 2022, Prince Andrew settled out of court with Virginia Giuffre Roberts. Virginia sued him the year before in American federal court, and it was very likely that the eventual trial would be incredibly messy for Prince Andrew, with details of the depth of his relationships with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell spilling out in open court. 2022 was Queen Elizabeth’s Jubbly year, and QEII and her courtiers didn’t want Andrew’s Epstein/Maxwell mess to distract from all of the festivities, so QEII gave Andrew the money to settle, for reportedly something like $12 million. Andrew did manage to attach a temporary gag order on Virginia as part of the settlement agreement, but in 2023, there were reports that Virginia signed a deal to write a memoir of what happened to her once she became ensnared in Epstein and Maxwell’s trap while she was a minor. In the two years since those memoir rumors, nothing has happened – Virginia has largely stayed quiet, there’s been no book and she’s only made a handful of public statements. Well, now Virginia is fighting for her life after being hit by a bus.

Virginia Giuffre, who has accused deceased convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein as well as Prince Andrew of sexual abuse, claims she has four days to live after a car crash involving a school bus.

In an Instagram post on Sunday, March 30, Giuffre shared a photo of herself in the hospital covered in bruises, saying she has gone into renal failure.

“This year has been the worst start to a new year, but I won’t bore anyone with the details but I think it important to note that when a school bus driver comes at you driving 110km as we were slowing for a turn that no matter what your car is made of it might as well be a tin can,” she wrote.

“They’ve given me four days to live, transferring me to a specialist hospital in urology,” she added. Giuffre said that she’s “ready to go” and that she hopes to see her children “one last time.”

She ended the post by thanking her supporters. “Thank you all for being the wonderful people of the world and for being a great part of my life,” she wrote.

Giuffre said that Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell trafficked her to rich and powerful men, including Prince Andrew, when she was a teenager. Andrew has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing. (Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year sentence after being convicted of child sex trafficking in 2021 in connection with Epstein, but not Prince Andrew.) In 2021, Giuffre sued Prince Andrew in New York, but the two reached an out-of-court settlement in February 2022. The amount was not disclosed.

[From People]

She clearly says it was a school bus. And she reportedly lives in Australia and has for some time. I’m not saying that there’s nothing suspicious about this – there absolutely is – but I’m not entirely sure the powerful people who have Virginia in their crosshairs would use a school bus, you know? Maybe I’m wrong. Or maybe this was just a terrible accident, a freak occurrence. I thought back to Epstein’s strange death in custody in New York too, which felt like such a huge conspiracy. I still have so many damn questions about it, honestly. But who knows. I feel so sorry for Virginia. She really spent years trying to get to the truth and trying to get justice for herself and for Epstein’s victims.

    First thing I thought it was another Diana accident.

    The Windsors seem to be unlucky with the mechanical kind.

    No school bus should be going at 110kmh so I hope there’s an investigation that is ongoing.

    • maisie says:

      most school busses have speed governors.

      the whole thing is confusing. if her kidney failure is due to trauma, she’d be on hemodialysis at least temporarily, till her kidneys recover. if it’s due to something else, she’d be on dialysis too.

      no responsible doctor would give someone a “4 days to live” in this situation. there’s too much missing information here. and if she’s tat ill, why is she posting on social media?

      I’ve always been a supporter of hers, but this just does not add up (I’m a doctor btw)

      • Megan says:

        This is such a strange story. Is someone posting as her as a hoax? AI can do a lot these days. Or is someone with power and influence feeding the media lies about how serious the accident was?

      • Lau says:

        The DM had people in Australia asking questions about what had happened and honestly the whole story is really strange. The cops are apparently saying that there were no accidents involving a schoolbus that had been reported. Then further in the article they’re saying that the driver of the bus had actually reported being involved in an accident. It’s all very confusing and I don’t know if it’s just the DM trying to do investigating journalism and failling.

      • Jaded says:

        Wouldn’t she be put on dialysis until she could get a kidney transplant? This story smells REALLY fishy.

      • MY3CENTS says:

        I agree, no doctor would be that specific. They might say little time, soon, but I don’t think any doctor would say something like exactly how much.

      • Nic919 says:

        I agree. She’s young enough that even if her kidneys don’t work she would be on a transplant list too.

        Someone in the media in Australia should investigate this a bit more.

    • SquiddusMaximus says:

      Hmm. Based on the fact that (1) the only sourcing for this has been her Instagram post (with filter), (2) the previous post suggesting her kids have been removed from her care, and (3) the observations others have made about kidney failure, I’m going with mental health crisis.

      If true, all the best for her in recovery.

  2. Smart&Messy says:

    WHy would they off her now? The cat is out of the bag, no? Authorities in the US (the banana republic where they may or may not be compromised) already have little black books, flight logs and other evidence of who Epstein and Maxwell served.

    • Me at home says:

      Agree we’re a banana republic now. But the orange dumpster fire will never release Epstein records because Trump and Epstein were great pals in Miami. One woman said the pair interviewed calendar girls together. Trump was friends with Epstein even after Epstein’s first conviction.

    • sevenblue says:

      Well, if I think like a conspiracist, they wouldn’t want her to write a book, full of anecdotes about whom she met at those parties. It was all powerful men who got away with it.

  3. Becks1 says:

    Absolutely horrible. I’m glad she was able to tell her story.

    I dont know, with this family its easy to make anything a conspiracy, but a school bus seems…..well, not it. But who am I to say?

    I hope there weren’t any children on board.

  4. Carrie says:

    Over on reddit it’s being said by people who live near the “crash” that the crash was reported as minor with no injuries and the driver waited a long time to report it bc it was so minor, plus other suspicious stuff…

    I don’t buy it. Anything involving those sketch balls over on the Salty Isle.

    • Yup, Me says:

      The post before the crash post (from late March) implies that her kids were being kept away from her. And she has another post from a few years ago where she has a black eye and thanks people for their attention and says she got a “titanium spine out of it” or something along those lines.

      I hope she’s okay, but she seems to have a lot going on.

    • Nanny to the Rescue says:

      Something certainly doesn’t add up.

      A bus going 110 km/h will cause more than minor damage to a car if it hits it. And could a minor damage to a car leave her this badly bruised? I know people get bruises from airbags, but her injuries are far worse.

      So either someone is not being truthful or maybe this wasn’t the same accident?

      • ML says:

        Nanny to the Rescue, I came to say the same thing. Not sure how much $2000 AUD is exactly in damages (about 1250 USD/Euro give or take a big bit), but it sounds like the accident did not do much to the car itself?? She says “we”–who was in the car with her and how badly were they injured? I know from my cousin who got breast cancer after the first wave of Covid destroyed her kidneys that you cannot get chemo if your kidneys don’t work: Is this why she’s terminal? Otherwise it sounds like something dialysis could handle (If incorrect, my apologies)? It sounds like people who were there described this as minor, and given the facts we know (as you stated, the speed and bruising, for example) this seems really off.

      • Nanny to the Rescue says:

        ML, unless the car itself wasn’t worth more than 2000 AUD? I was once in an accident, no fault of mine, and only got 500 EUR for a ruined vehicle because the repairs would cost way more than the car was worth. I guess it depends on Australia’s insurance policies and laws.

        But that doesn’t change the fact that 110 km/h is a terrible speed to have an accident at. No way the bus driver and the bus would be unaffected and a car would get oblitirated.

      • ML says:

        https://people.com/virginia-giuffre-crash-update-11706660

        It doesn’t say the car was totalled, only the damages? And not what the car was worth? And in theory she could afford a decent, newish car after her settlement with Paedrew? IDK, this all sounds odd.

  5. StillDouchesOfCambridge says:

    Omg this is horrible. I hope she makes it against the odds. Whatever time is left, I hope she sees her kids again and finds peace in the end.

    And yes, very suspicious…

  6. Bradleymatthew says:

    On CNN it’s being reported that it was a minor collision with no injuries???

    • Tessa says:

      The dm put the story on the back burner so to speak. Andrew still suffers no consequences and no talk of his losing his titles

  7. Bumblebee says:

    This is not good. So sad.

  8. etso says:

    It’s a strange story. I hope that Virginia is able to heal, wish her the best.

  9. Bryn says:

    This is a bizarre story but no need to get in to conspiracy territory. If her kidneys are failing can’t they put her on dialysis? Doctor tells her four days to live? My guess is this time next week we will find out she’s still alive

    • Bryn says:

      It’s pretty silly how quick this site is to jump to conspiracies before the story has even been verified.

  10. Libra says:

    Nothing makes sense here. If this accident left her so severely injured that she is in renal failure, which isn’t she in ICU? The photo is important in what it doesn’t show. No IV, no central line, no monitors hookups, no hospital gown, the absence of these in the photo is deliberate I think. The whole story is yet to be told. Is she pretending to be seriously ill to defend herself from harm? Did someone assault her?

    • pottymouth pup says:

      she, absolutely, would be in a medical ICU under the care of nephrologists (not urologists) for her renal failure if she was told death was imminent. She’d also be getting dialysis and would likely have been worked up for transplant if she was in end stage renal disease (which is rarely caused by a motor vehicle accident alone).

  11. Lili says:

    When i saw this yesterday i thought someone was yanking my chain so it turns out its true, I hope she recovers against the odds.

  12. Inge says:

    Whilst she wouldnt be the first one(Diana, Charles mistress who was pushed out of a window) there is something weird. Who wrote this message if she is gravely ill?

  13. Mslove says:

    VG was set to publish her memoir, but no US publisher would touch it.

    I hope VG gets well soon.

    • Nanny to the Rescue says:

      This isn’t insignifficant.

      I can imagine she has names and stories, but no way to prove it, so no publisher will risk a lawsuit. That doesn’t mean the infornation she was about to publish wouldn’t damn a man or three.

      His Royal Asshole Andrew probably has nothing to gain by offing her, they’ve settled and his reputation is already ruined. But there are other men, many other men who could see her as a threat.

      • Mslove says:

        Other men such as Donald Trump, Elon Musk, Bill Gates, etc. Yep.

      • MsIam says:

        There’s ways to publish without naming names, look at Spare. And if she has pictures with Andrew who knows what else she has.

      • Meredith says:

        As if their supporters would care — they’d blame the victim and ignore their own hypocrisy.

    • Meredith says:

      These days plenty of people self publish books.

  14. Lala11_7 says:

    I cried when I heard this earlier 💔

  15. Miss Scarlett says:

    I don’t believe in coincidence.

    Never underestimate the lengths people will go to to keep their names clear.

  16. Shelly says:

    I live in Perth. If there was a major bus accident – ESPECIALLY one involving a school bus – it would have been reported in the media, and there has been absolutely nothing about a major crash reported anywhere.
    The police down here are saying she was in a minor collision and there were no injuries.
    I think she might have some other “non-physical” issues at the moment.

  17. Sue says:

    It is so sad the comments people still leave on her IG, that she was only after money, etc. She was the center of the biggest proven human trafficking operation in modern history and people still don’t believe her. This is why women don’t report.

  18. Tarte Au Citron says:

    I had wondered if it was a US-directed hit, rather than the BRF.
    Billy Idle couldn’t give a toss about Uncle Andy, why should he bother.

  19. slippers4life says:

    This is just horrible all around. My heart is broken and I am praying for the best possible outcome.

  20. Bestie says:

    3 words:

    Witness Protection Program

  21. QuiteContrary says:

    This is just very, very odd. Whatever’s going on, I hope she makes it through.

  22. Kaaaaaz says:

    This is so sad. And fishy as hell. I’m not generally a believer in conspiracies , but this is very suspicious given the timing.

  23. DogObsessedGirl says:

    Is there any way this is a sick April Fools stunt?

    • Bronco says:

      The post before it was quite disturbing too about not being allowed to see her kids and being poisoned with lies.. Something’s going on. Not sure it was a car accident though.

  24. fwiw says:

    KooI can believe she might have been told that she would die in about 4 days if she didn’t get dialysis. But it sounds like she will be sent where she can get it.

    She doesn’t seem to be blaming the Epstein bunch. Maybe this has more to do with not being allowed to see her children, and she hopes saying “4 more days to live” will change that. Sounds like a divorce, child custody issues, & her family is not close to her in Australia to help her.

    What she went through is enough to screw up a woman’s life for a long, long time. I hope she’ll be ok

  25. Miss Scarlett says:

    Actually, now additional reports are making this sound like a hoax… apparently this “accident” hasn’t made headlines in Australia…

  26. Kkat says:

    My first thought was “they” tried to kill her. I’m sure there are powerful people we haven’t heard about that want to keep her quiet.

    Now hearing the details coming out , this is really odd.
    Could she be planning on faking her death to go into hiding?

    4 days is very specific about dying from renal failure, and what treatment are they doing, no dialysis?

    I’m sure we will be hearing much more about this

  27. Jennifer says:

    I hate to say “hoax,” but something seems extremely strange about this “four days left to live but still posting on social media” stuff.

  28. tamsin says:

    This is weird. April fool joke by an enemy?

  29. Fina says:

    I am wondering if the doctors said something like: „your kidneys have completely stopped working, we need to move you to a hospital that can offer dialysis, otherwise your organs will start failing after 4 days or so“. This is the only way her story could be somehow true. But honestly, this story seems so unlikely. To look that well (only a few bruises, no scratches, no swelling) after a bus crashed into you with 110km/h is quite an achievement…. When my dad was in kidney failure two years ago, he definitely was attached to all sorts of apparatus and definitely did not look as fit. Also had to wear hospital gown and could not wear jewellery. Is this maybe a very desperate try to get her children to visit?

  30. Joan says:

    It looks like she’s already gone in that photo. Electrode monitors removed. No gown, no central line, no saline drip. Her body is in an odd position. This looks like a photo that was taken for evidence.

  31. Miss Scarlett says:

    Police have debunked her story, and now she’s back walking it, saying she made a mistake 🤪🤣 What kind of person does something like that??

    • Tiff says:

      Did simeone pay her to cast doubt on herself or is she scared and wanted to draw media attention? She has to tread careful and outthink a whole machine. I will always give her a pass on things like this.

  32. Bqm says:

    The whole story is bizarre. She says one thing, police have no reports of a serious bus incident at all and her family then posts something different.

  33. Constance says:

    If this does turn out to be fishy…as it increasingly seems…you know the UK sleaze “media” and their “writers” are desperate to somehow link to and point blame at Meghan…and will manage to mention to her name in some way as they can’t ever not say her name…

  34. Walking the Walk says:

    Not everything is a conspiracy. No, I doubt Andrew cares about her or they put a “hit” out on her. Sounds like a mental health crisis.

  35. Tiff says:

    Who knows why she is saying this if it didn’t happen. Alan Dershowitz brother died because a truck or bus hit him while he was bike riding with his wife.

    Did she want to remind people that happen? I always felt that stiuatiin was odd. They brushed it off as him being old. Yet, him and his wife was regular bike riders.

  36. JFerber says:

    My sister was in renal failure and recovered. I pray and hope that Virginia can get the help that would save her life. This is horrible!

  37. JFerber says:

    Hear, hear, Tiff. She always deserves grace after what those bastards did to her.

  38. Sherry says:

    There was a really disgusting comment of “Karma” from Andrew’s pal Lady Victoria Harvey yesterday.
