I saw Prince Andrew accuser Virginia Roberts abused by Epstein at paedo’s mansion, Ghislaine Maxwell trial told

GHISLAINE Maxwell’s trial has heard from a woman who says she saw Prince Andrew’s accuser Virginia Roberts abused by Jeffrey Epstein.

The claim was made by a witness who says she was recruited by the 59-year-old socialite to herself be abused by the multi-millionaire paedophile

Virginia Roberts Giuffre – as she’s now known – has claimed she had sex with Prince Andrew in a toilet when she was 17, after he had allegedly plied her with vodka in a posh London club.

The royal has vehemently denied the accusations against him, branding them “false” and “without foundation”.

Maxwell is alleged to have “served up” young girls for former lover Epstein to abuse and also allegedly participated in some of the attacks.

The third of Maxwell’s accusers to testify at her trial – known as Carolyn to protect her identity – said was 14 when she met Virginia Roberts through a boyfriend

She was introduced to Epstein to massage him to make money and went to his house, where she was greeted by Maxwell.

Carolyn said she was then taken to a room to massage the paedophile and Virginia was also there.

“After 45 minutes of massaging his back, Epstein turned over, and Epstein and Virginia started having sex,” she said.

Sobbing as she gave evidence, Carolyn said her and Virginia were both paid, with her getting $300.

She alleges she went to Epstein’s house more than 100 times – two to three times a week – between the ages of 14 and 18.

Carolyn said Maxwell would sometimes call her to schedule appointments with Epstein, during each of which she would be paid $300 to $400.

Maxwell once touched her while she was preparing to massage Epstein, she revealed.

“Something sexual happened every single time,” she said, adding that Maxwell well told her “I had a great body for Mr. Epstein and his friends”.

“She came in and felt my boobs and my hips and my buttocks,” Carolyn said.

Prosecutors have said the multi-millionaire financier’s abuse of teenage victims began as massages before escalating, with the term used as a ruse to get girls to touch him.

The Duke of York was pictured with his arm around Virginia at Maxwell’s house in London, with her also in the photograph.

What we’ve heard so far:

• A framed photo of Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein kissing has been shown at her sex trafficking and abuse trial.
• Ghislaine Maxwell laid out a schoolgirl outfit for her to wear while serving tea to paedo Jeffrey Epstein.
• The socialite would regularly name drop Prince Andrew and Donald Trump
• Photos showing what appears to be framed nude picture of Maxwell were shown to the jury
• Trump, Andrew and Bill Clinton all flew on Jeffrey Epstein’s private jet, the paedo millionaire’s former pilot said
• Maxwell handed Epstein’s housekeeper a “degrading” 58-page booklet which shows staff were told to “see nothing and say nothing”.

Buckingham Palace has said: “It is emphatically denied that The Duke of York had any form of sexual contact or relationship with Virginia Roberts.”

It comes as the seventh day of the trial was also shown a photo of Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein kissing.

The never-before-seen picture showing them in a clench was sitting on a table at Epstein’s Palm Beach mansion.

Maxwell’s trial has been told her and Epstein had been in a relationship but remained “the best of friends” after they split.

Prosecutors have described them as being “partners in crime” in the abuse of girls.

The couple shared a bedroom at the Palm Beach mansion, with Maxwell helping in the running of the property.

Convicted sex offender Epstein killed himself while awaiting trial for further sex trafficking charges in August 2019.

Maxwell was arrested suddenly in July 2020 – and has been held in prison ever since as she was deemed a flight risk.
