‘Surviving Jeffrey Epstein' Accuser Virginia Giuffre Left With 'Days To Live' After Brutal Car Accident
Virginia Giuffre, a prominent Jeffrey Epstein accuser who detailed her alleged abuse in the Lifetime series Surviving Jeffrey Epstein, has announced that a fatal bus crash left her with just 'days to live.'
Giuffre shared the news with a photo from her hospital bed, where she appears to be covered in bruises. She announced the accident left her suffering from kidney failure.
'This year has been the worst start to a new year, but I won't bore anyone with the details but I think it important to note that when a school bus driver comes at you driving [60 mph] as we were slowing for a turn that no matter what your car is made of it might as well be a tin can,' she wrote.
Giuffre continued, 'I've gone into kidney renal failure, they've given me four days to live, transferring me to a specialist hospital in urology. I'm ready to go, just not until I see my babies one last time, but you know what they say about wishes. S**T in one hand and wish in the other & I guarantee it's still going to be s**t at the end of the day.'
She concluded her message by thanking her supporters. 'Thank you all for being the wonderful people of the world and for being a great part of my life,' she added.
Giuffre was a key figure in the investigation into Epstein's alleged sex trafficking operation. She claimed she had sex with Prince Andrew multiple times beginning when she was 17 years old, as well as other figures.
She detailed the abuse in the 2020 Lifetime documentary Surviving Jeffrey Epstein. She claimed the abuse began when Epstein's accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, recruited her into a sex trafficking ring when she was 16 and working as a locker room attendant at President Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort, per The New York Post.
In the doc, Giuffre claims Epstein 'started literally trafficking me. There were times that he would send me on a commercial flight to go meet the people…saying, 'I want you to take care of them and report back to me what they liked, what you did for them,'' per Vanity Fair. She adds that Prince Andrew was amongst Epstein's targets.
'Andrew deserves to be outed. He deserves to be held accountable,' Giuffre says of Prince Andrew in the doc. 'He participated in a sex trafficking operation with one of the most prolific sex trafficking operators in the world in modern time.'
Andrew denied the claims but paid two settlements to Giuffre and her charity in 2019, with one reported to be around $12 million.
Giuffre is a mother of three. She reportedly lives with her husband and family in Australia.

Brooke Shields calls out Meghan Markle's gender equality story as 'too precious'
Brooke Shields once dubbed Meghan Markle as "too precious." During a recent appearance on India Hicks's podcast, the 60-year-old actress recalled the moment she interrupted the Duchess of Sussex during a panel at the South by Southwest Festival last year after the former royal seemed to have lost the audience's attention with an anecdote from her childhood. To mark International Women's Day, Katie Couric asked the panel a question related to gender equality – and Markle answered right away. "Katie asks the first question to Meghan and she talks about how at a young age, she was already advocating for women," Shields said, per Sky News. Markle, who shared the exact same story with Vanity Fair in 2017, referenced the time she wrote a letter to a company that promoted women washing dishes. "She starts telling a story about how when she was 11 – and she keeps saying, 'Well, when I was 11, I saw this commercial and they were talking about how washing dishes was for women. And she said, 'I didn't think only women wash dishes. It wasn't fair. So I wrote to the company.'" "It was just too precious, and I was like, they're not going to want to sit here for 45 minutes and listen to anybody be precious or serious." Shields recalled interrupting Markle during the panel. "I go, 'Excuse me, I'm so sorry, I've got to interrupt you there for one minute.' I was trying not to be rude, but I wanted to be funny because it was so serious. 'I just want to give everybody here a context as to how we're different. When I was 11, I was playing a prostitute.'" Shields, who earned a laugh from the audience, was referring to her role in the 1978 film, "Pretty Baby." "The place went insane. And then luckily, it was more relaxed after that," Shields said. During the same panel, Shields reflected on being sexualized as a child star in Hollywood. The actress rose to fame at the age of 11 when she played a child prostitute in "Pretty Baby," which featured Shields in multiple nude scenes. As a 10-year-old, Shields posed naked for the Playboy publication Sugar'n'Spice. "I was at the center of it," Shields said. "And I was promoting it and I was doing it." She continued, "And I was lucky because I was surrounded by a very strong mom. I never did move to Hollywood. I always went to regular school." "So I had this sort of community around me that was protecting me, buoying me. And so I did not become the type of statistic that Hollywood created," Shields added. "Hollywood is predicated on eating its young." Fox News Digital's Ashley Hume contributed to this post.

Mariska Hargitay Confronts Her Late Mother's 'Sex Symbol' Legacy in Emotional 'My Mom Jayne 'Trailer
HBO released the official trailer for Mariska Hargitay's feature film directorial debut My Mom Jayne The documentary will debut on HBO and Max on June 27 In the trailer, Hargitay says that her mother's "career made me want to do it differently, but I want to understand her now"Mariska Hargitay is reclaiming her mother's story — and her own. HBO released the official trailer for Hargitay's directorial film debut My Mom Jayne, which will premiere on HBO and Max on June 27. "I've spent my whole life distancing myself from my mother, Jayne Mansfield, the sex symbol," Hargitay, 61, begins in the trailer. "Her career made me want to do it differently, but I want to understand her now." When Hargitay was just three years old, she, along with her two older brothers, survived the car wreck that killed Mansfield, then just 34, in 1967. The film will hit Max just two days before the 58th anniversary of Mansfield's death. "I don't have any memories of her," Hargitay says in the trailer. "And then my dad died in 2006. I've never talked to my siblings about their experiences," she says of her sister, Jayne Marie Mansfield, brothers Mickey Hargitay Jr. and Zoltan Hargitay, and youngest brother, Tony Cimber, all of whom are featured in the documentary. "I don't know how the hell you got me to do this," Mickey Jr. says in the trailer with a good-natured laugh. And while speaking to her sister, Hargitay admits that she's "envious" of Jayne Marie's memories of their mother. "In the beginning, I had her to myself," Jayne Marie shares. "She'd take me everywhere." Hargitay also discusses what she calls her mother's "persona" with her siblings as they examine Mansfield's "pin-up" public image. The mother they knew widely differed from the bombshell presented to Hollywood. Says Mickey Jr., "I looked the other way because I knew she was really smart." Later in the clip, this time speaking to her youngest brother Tony, Hargitay says that she's "heard things that are really ugly." "I don't know that I want to know those ugly things," says Tony in response. Mansfield was married to Tony's father, Matt Cimber, for roughly a year, during which time they welcomed Tony. Hargitay also address the keeping of family secrets that she's done for years, and how she's gained a newfound understanding that the secrecy doesn't honor anyone. With the initial premiere of My Mom Jayne at the Cannes Film Festival on May 17, Hargitay revealed in the documentary that her biological father is not Mickey Hargitay, the man who raised her, but rather a former Las Vegas entertainer named Nelson Sardelli. The actress opened up further about the shocking revelation in an interview with Vanity Fair, telling the outlet that she went to see Sardelli perform in Atlantic City, N.J., when she was 30 years old. Moved to tears when Hargitay introduced herself, Sardelli said, 'I've been waiting 30 years for this moment.' But Hargitay said she found herself giving him a tough time and going "full Olivia Benson on him," referring to her SVU character. 'I was like, 'I don't want anything, I don't need anything from you.… I have a dad, '' she recalled telling him. 'There was something about loyalty. I wanted to be loyal to Mickey.'

As the trailer comes to a close, Hargitay says that she set out on this journey to "[reclaim] our family story. That is what this is about for me. Because she's a part of me. I want to know her as Jayne. My mom Jayne." The North American premiere of My Mom Jayne will take place during the Tribeca Film Festival on June 13 in New York City before the documentary debuts on HBO and Max on June 27.
