Will Andrew play it by the book?

IF YOU think Prince Andrew has had a terrible week — another one, and possibly the most damaging yet after being forced to give up his Duke of York title last night.

- 

He’s also given up his knighthood as a Knight Grand Cross of the Royal Victorian Order and his Garter role as a Royal Knight Companion of the Most Noble Order of the Garter. But set your iPhone alert for Tuesday for that is the day his nemesis, the late Virginia Giuffre, could well deliver the coup de grâce from beyond the grave.

October 21 is publication day for her posthumous memoirs, Nobody’s Girl, completed just before she took her own life in April this year. From the leaks so far, it’s explosive stuff.

Giuffre was of course paedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s most prominent accuser. Her allegations against Andrew, to whom she consistently said she had been sex-trafficked aged 17, destroyed his reputation and terminated his royal role.
