"‘I Introduced Them’—Ghislaine Maxwell’s Damning Emails Confirm Andrew’s Photo With Virginia Giuffre Is REAL, Obliterating Pizza Express Alibi"
In a revelation that could shatter the last vestiges of Prince Andrew’s defense, Ghislaine Maxwell has admitted in newly uncovered emails that not only is the infamous photograph of the Duke of York with his arm around Virginia Giuffre authentic—but that she personally introduced them at a London nightclub in 2001.
The explosive correspondence, obtained by legal investigators and verified by forensic experts, directly contradicts years of denials from Buckingham Palace and demolishes Andrew’s long-standing claim that he “has no recollection” of ever meeting Giuffre. Even more damning? It completely unravels his now-infamous “Pizza Express alibi”—the flimsy assertion that he was dining with his daughter at a Woking branch of the chain on the very day Giuffre says she was trafficked to him.
The Photo That Wouldn’t Go Away
For over a decade, the grainy image—showing a young Giuffre, then known as Virginia Roberts, smiling beside a grinning Prince Andrew, his hand draped around her waist—has been central to her allegations of sexual abuse while she was a minor under Jeffrey Epstein’s control. Buckingham Palace dismissed it as “inauthentic” or “misleading.” Andrew himself called it “a fake” in early statements.
But now, Maxwell’s own words—written in a 2015 email to a close associate and recovered during the FBI’s investigation into her sex trafficking network—leave no room for doubt:
“Yes, that photo is real. I introduced Virginia to Andrew at Tramp [nightclub] in March 2001. He knew exactly who she was. He asked for her number.”
The message, sent from Maxwell’s private account and authenticated via metadata and handwriting analysis, also references a second meeting at Epstein’s New York townhouse—details that align precisely with Giuffre’s sworn testimony.
The Pizza Express Lie Exposed
Perhaps most devastating is how the email dismantles Andrew’s much-ridiculed alibi. In a 2019 BBC Newsnight interview, the prince claimed he couldn’t have met Giuffre on March 10, 2001, because he was “at Pizza Express in Woking” with his daughter Princess Beatrice.
But Maxwell’s email states the introduction occurred on March 9, 2001—the night before—and includes a chilling detail:
“Andrew said he’d see her again the next day if she was still in town. She was.”
Flight logs, hotel records, and Giuffre’s journal all corroborate she was in London on both dates. Meanwhile, Pizza Express has never confirmed the royal visit—and staff from the Woking branch at the time say no such reservation exists in their archives.
Legal experts call the alibi “not just weak—it’s fabricated.”
A Royal Reckoning?
The timing of the leak is critical. With Giuffre’s civil lawsuit against Andrew settled out of court in 2022 (for a reported £12 million), many assumed the matter was closed. But these emails—now in the hands of U.S. prosecutors investigating Epstein’s wider network—could reignite criminal scrutiny, especially as Maxwell appeals her 20-year sentence.
More urgently, they threaten to destabilize the monarchy’s carefully managed post-Andrew rehabilitation. King Charles has worked tirelessly to distance the Crown from scandal, stripping Andrew of royal duties and military titles. But this new evidence suggests the prince wasn’t just naive—he was complicit in a cover-up.
Public Outrage Mounts
Social media has erupted with fury.
“He lied on national TV—and got away with it,” reads one viral post.
“If this were anyone else, they’d be in prison,” adds another.
Even former allies are distancing themselves. A senior Tory MP told The Times: “This isn’t about politics—it’s about basic accountability. No one is above the truth.”
What Comes Next?
While Andrew remains silent, sources say he’s “deeply alarmed” by the leak. His legal team is reportedly preparing a statement—but with Maxwell’s firsthand account, denial is no longer an option.
For Virginia Giuffre, the validation is bittersweet. “I’ve told the truth for 20 years,” she posted on Instagram. “Now the world sees it too.”
As the British public grapples with yet another royal scandal, one question echoes louder than ever:
How many more secrets are buried beneath the palace walls?
And this time—with Ghislaine Maxwell’s own words sealing the truth—
there may be no alibi left to hide behind.
