Giuffre became a public figure when she came forward in 2010 as an alleged victim of Epstein, the late financier who died by suicide in his prison cell at age 66 in 2019, and Maxwell, 63, who is currently serving a prison sentence for child sex trafficking in connection with Epstein.

"Virginia was a fierce warrior in the fight against sexual abuse and sex trafficking," her family said in a statement.

Virginia Giuffre, the woman who publicly accused Jeffrey Epstein and Prince Andrew of sexual abuse, has reportedly died by suicide. She was 41.
