Jeffrey Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre dies by suicide at 41 just weeks after saying she ‘had days to live’

Virginia Giuffre, the most prominent victim of late convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, took her own life Thursday — just weeks after she made headlines for saying she had “four days to live” following a collision with a bus.

“It is with utterly broken hearts that we announce that Virginia passed away last night at her farm in Western Australia,” the 41-year-old’s family said in a statement to NBC News.

“She lost her life to suicide, after being a lifelong victim of sexual abuse and sex trafficking.”

First responders found Giuffre unresponsive in her home near Perth, and local authorities said her death is being probed by Major Crime detectives, but the “early indication is the death is not suspicious,” the BBC reported.

Giuffre took legal action against billionaire financier Epstein in 2015, alleging that she was sex trafficked at 16 after his ex-lover and convicted madam, Ghislaine Maxwell, recruited her from her job as a locker room attendant at President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort.

“She was the light that lifted so many survivors. Despite all the adversity she faced in her life, she shone so bright. She will be missed beyond measure. The light of her life were her children Christian, Noah and Emily,” the family said in a statement to People.

“It was when she held her newborn daughter in her arms that Virginia realized she had to fight back against those who had abused her and so many others,” they added.

“She was heroic and will always be remembered for her incredible courage and loving spirit. We know that she is with the angels.”

The mom of three also alleged she was forced to have sex with disgraced Prince Andrew three times when she was 17 — including at Epstein’s Little St. James island, in New Mexico and in Maxwell’s London home, where a notorious photo of her posing with King Charles’ brother was taken.

The allegations became the biggest scandal to rock the royal family in a generation.

Prince Andrew has long denied the allegations — but settled out of court with his accuser for a hefty $12 million in 2022.

“Virginia was a fierce warrior in the fight against sexual abuse and sex trafficking. She was the light that lifted so many survivors,” her family told NBC News.

“In the end, the toll of abuse is so heavy that it became unbearable for Virginia to handle its weight.”

As a child, Giuffre suffered abuse by a family friend that led her down a dark path that ended up with the teenager living on the streets, NBC News reported.

Giuffre, who had been living with her young family in Australia in recent years, made headlines last month when she posted a photo of her bruised-up face on social media — claiming to have been struck by a bus and she had “four days to live.”

“This has been the worst start to a new year,” she wrote in the caption.

“I’m ready to go, just not until I see my babies one last time, but you know what they say about wishes,” Giuffre’s caption read.

Bus driver Ross Munns claimed Giuffre had “blown it out of proportion,” and that the bus carrying 29 children merely clipped the Toyota Highlander being driven by a 71-year-old woman with Giuffre in the passenger seat.

“The driver pulled out in front of me. I made sure she was all right, and I went and did a police report,” Munns told the Daily Mail. “She was elderly, and I asked if she was OK, and she said, ‘Yes, I’m OK.’”

Munns further claimed that he didn’t even notice a passenger in the car, only learning later when informed by local police about the accident, who were contacted by the unidentified driver the following day, according to the outlet.

Giuffre later claimed she suffered years of physical abuse at the hands of her husband, Robert Giuffre. The couple recently split after 22 years of marriage.

Robert Giuffre recently violated a restraining order taken out by Virginia in their home of Perth, according to The Independent.

Among Giuffre’s bombshell allegations connected to Epstein, she claimed to have seen former President Bill Clinton on the pedophile’s Caribbean island twice, which Clinton has long denied. ‘

Epstein died by suicide in his Manhattan jail cell in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges. Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison on federal sex-trafficking charges in 2022. Her release is currently set for July 17, 2037 — just before she turns 76.

Queen Elizabeth stripped Prince Andrew of his royal and military titles — including “His Royal Highness” — in 2022 after a judge rejected the disgraced royal’s attempt to dismiss Giuffre’s lawsuit.
