The publishers of Virginia Giuffre’s posthumous memoir have bowed to pressure from her family and agreed to rewrite it.

Her family had claimed the book did not accurately portray her marriage to her ex-husband, Robert Giuffre, whom they allege was abusive.

Ms Giuffre, one of Jeffrey Epstein’s victims who claimed she was sexually assaulted by the Duke of York, died by suicide in April aged 41.

Prince Andrew has always denied the allegations against him.

Weeks before she died, Ms Giuffre reportedly voiced her regret to her family about how she had written about her marriage.

In the original version of the book, Mr Giuffre is credited with rescuing her from Epstein’s abuse.

Mr Giuffre had sought a restraining order against his wife and had been granted custody of their three children. It was “placed” upon Ms Giuffre, according to The Sun.

“She did not want the book published in its current state,” Sky Roberts, her brother, previously told The New York Times.
