A Report Says That the Queen Will Likely Pay For Prince Andrew’s $16 Million Sex Abuse Settlement
Disgraced British royal Prince Andrew faced a call Wednesday to “live out his retirement in ignominy” after reportedly settling a sexual assault lawsuit for a whopping 12 million pound ($16.3 million, 14.3 million euros).
The lawyer for US accuser Virginia Giuffre revealed on Tuesday that both parties had settled out of court, sparing Andrew the public humiliation of a trial. The details were not revealed.
Giuffre has said she had sex with Andrew when she was 17 and a minor under US law, after meeting him through the late US financier Jeffrey Epstein, who took his own life in prison while awaiting trial for sex crimes.
