The family of Virginia Giuffre, the late American woman who accused Andrew Mountbatten Windsor of sexual abuse, are pushing to establish US-style Parliamentary hearings into Jeffrey Epstein in Britain, a development the article suggests could deepen the disgrace facing the former Duke. Ms Giuffre's brother, Sky Roberts, said he is "actively" working to make the hearings happen and intends to visit Britain soon to meet Andy Burnham and press for a public inquiry into Epstein's links to the UK. The proposed hearings would be modelled on those under way in the US Congress, where key figures in the Epstein affair have been compelled to testify.

The article notes that officers from Thames Valley Police, who are investigating Andrew, are due to travel to the US in the coming weeks as part of their inquiry. Andrew was released under investigation after his arrest in February on suspicion of misconduct in public office, over allegedly passing sensitive information to Epstein, a convicted paedophile he was friends with for more than a decade. Former UK ambassador to the US Peter Mandelson was similarly released under investigation following his arrest on suspicion of misconduct; both men deny the allegations. Ms Giuffre took her own life in April 2025 at the age of 41.
