Prince Andrew insisted his accuser Virginia Giuffre sign a one-year gag order to avoid tarnishing the late Queen Elizabeth II's platinum jubilee, according to her memoir.

Andrew dramatically relinquished his Duke of York title and remaining honours on Friday evening.

The decision was made in consultation with King Charles and Prince William in a bid to bring an end to the long-lasting scandal.

But Ms Giuffre's posthumous memoir Nobody’s Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice, which is due to be released on Tuesday (October 21), focuses further attention on the sexual assault allegations.

It also mentions Andrew's friendship with paedophile Jeffrey Epstein which led to his downfall.
