Epstein Victim’s Family Breaks Silence, Suggests She Was Killed: ‘Somebody Got To Her’
The family of Virginia Giuffre, the most prominent accuser of Jeffrey Epstein and Prince Andrew, is speaking out just days after her tragic death at age 41 — and her father is casting serious doubt on the official ruling of suicide.
In an emotional and raw interview on Piers Morgan Uncensored, Virginia’s father, Sky Roberts, revealed his deep skepticism about the circumstances surrounding her death and suggested foul play may have been involved.
“First of all, I couldn’t even believe it,” Roberts told Morgan. “I started crying right away. I’m still crying. I can’t believe that this is happening. It’s just, it’s impossible. And then for them to say that she committed suicide, there’s no way that she did. Somebody got to her.”
Virginia Giuffre, who lived in Australia in recent years, had become a global symbol of courage in the fight against sex trafficking after publicly accusing billionaire Epstein and his inner circle — including British royal Prince Andrew — of horrific abuse. Her lawsuit against Prince Andrew resulted in a highly publicized out-of-court settlement for a reported $12 million in 2022, though the prince has denied wrongdoing.
According to her father, Virginia was on her own in that battle from the very beginning.

“She was on her own to go against Jeffrey Epstein, Glenn Maxwell, Prince Andrew,” Roberts said. “She was on her own this whole time… She’s just trying to make these people pay for what they did.”
Though estranged from his daughter in recent years, Roberts said he believed she kept her distance to protect him. “She knew a lot of things about a lot of powerful people,” he said. “And to me, she’s just protecting me that I don’t get involved in any of it.”
Roberts also confirmed he had seen the now-infamous photograph of Virginia, then a teenager, standing next to Prince Andrew with Ghislaine Maxwell in the background — long before it made headlines.

“Virginia sent the original picture. So I know it wasn’t fake… Yes. My mom had an 8×10,” he said, adding that she had shown him the image “many years ago when it happened,” well before the public ever saw it.
In 2015, Giuffre sued Epstein and Maxwell, alleging that she was recruited by the pair at Mar-a-Lago and forced into sexual encounters with Epstein’s clients, including Prince Andrew. The prince never faced a courtroom but opted to settle, a decision Roberts interpreted as a silent admission.
Asked about his view of Prince Andrew, Roberts didn’t hold back: “Well, yeah, I don’t care for him at all… they just think he can do what he wants to do.”
“She actually got out of a bad situation and made a good situation out of it,” Roberts said. “She was helping a lot of other young girls that were feeling the pain… I think she’s strong, very strong. And that’s why I don’t think she committed suicide. She had too much to live for. She had her foundation.”
Despite years of estrangement and complex family dynamics, Roberts said he never doubted Virginia’s motives—or her truth. “I told her, never lie to me. Never say anything that you can’t say to me, just tell me the truth.”
Virginia Giuffre is survived by her three children and a legacy of bravery that gave a voice to countless victims around the world.
