Prince Andrew COULD NOT have had sex with Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre in bathtub because 'it was too SMALL for a man his size to enjoy a bath, let alone sex,' Ghislaine Maxwell's lawyer claims

Ghislaine Maxwell's lawyer claimed that Prince Andrew could not have had sex with Virginia Giuffre in a bathtub because of his size, according to recently released documents in the Jeffrey Epstein saga.

Documents released Monday include claims by Maxwell's lawyer Philip Barden that Epstein accuser Giuffre lied about having sex with Prince Andrew because the bath in Maxwell's London apartment was too small for a man of Prince Andrew's size.

Giuffre, who was traded by the disgraced financier and Maxwell, has previously claimed that Prince Andrew licked her toes in the bath before they had sex in the bedroom in 2001, when she was 17.

In his 2017 statement, Barden said Giuffre “claimed that she had sex with Prince Andrew and that the sex took place in what can only be described as a very small bathtub. Too small for a man of Prince Andrew's size to enjoy a bath, let alone sex.'

The new documents were previously sealed as part of a 2015 lawsuit between Maxwell and her most prominent accuser Giuffre.

Barden also claimed that Giuffre's claims against Prince Andrew “created a feeding frenzy for the press.”

Last year the Daily Telegraph made the same claim and published a cover story with an image of a bathtub. The newspaper claimed that Prince Andrew of Giuffre's claim was “exonerated.”

Ghislaine's brother Ian told the newspaper that the image, drawn up by two of his sister's acquaintances, “conclusively proves that the bath is too small for any form of sex.”

Giuffre said in 2019 that the assault started in the bath of Maxwell's London apartment and moved to the bedroom.

In 2022, Prince Andrew settled a lawsuit with Giuffre by paying her millions. However, he has always denied even meeting her.

The court's 17 unsealed exhibits are the latest in a flurry of documents made public over the past week.

The latest stack of papers contains harrowing testimonies from Epstein victim Sarah Ransome

The never-before-seen images, which were released and made public as part of the latest document dump surrounding Epstein, appeared to show girls or young women at his private home in the US Virgin Island in 2006.

The documents also include claims that former President Donald Trump had sex with multiple Epstein victims.

The latest stack of papers contains emails that Epstein victim Sarah Ransome sent to DailyMail.com columnist Maureen Callahan in 2016. Callahan was working for The New York Post at the time, reporting on Epstein.

Ransome claimed in those emails that Trump had sex with “a lot of girls,” including an unnamed friend of hers who she says also slept with Bill Clinton and Virgin billionaire Richard Branson.

It is alleged that Epstein filmed each of these sexual encounters – and that the woman involved also obtained copies of the tapes.

Such images have never been made public. The FBI is now under pressure to release hundreds of pieces of evidence photographed during a 2019 raid on Epstein's mansion but never seized.

Ransome told the court she tried to swim away from Little St James Island, where Epstein brought his victims, because of his and Maxwell's demands that she weigh less than 56kg.

'I tried to swim off the island. “I tried to escape from an island at night to try to escape her because if I didn't lose weight they would cut me off from them – financially,” Ransome told the court.

'I would lose the place I was staying. I would lose my education. You name it. They bullied me about everything, just like they did with the other girls.'

Ransome described the scene at Epstein's estate as a brothel, with girls sent on a rotating basis to the financier's room for “massages” – the code word for sex.

She claimed, “when I was done, another girl got a call from Ghislaine. And when they were done, another girl was called.

'We had a kind of rotation visit for Jeffrey, all day and evening

'We tried to hide in different places so we wouldn't have to be called. Generally we had to sit in the main area. There was like a big swimming pool, the main sitting area. There was a large table. We would sit there making some kind of art on the table, and we always had to be nearby.'

Ransome also said Epstein provided all the women's outfits on the island, with the clothes coming from Victoria's Secret.

Giuffre sued Maxwell for publicly labeling her a liar. The case was settled in 2017 — two years before Epstein was indicted and later died by suicide — and before Maxwell's arrest.

They have now become public after repeated requests from the media and some of those involved in the scandal who called for court transparency.

What was expected was a list that exposed the 187 Jane and John Does whose names were previously protected.

The court did not comply with that request and instead published hundreds and hundreds of pages where the names had previously been redacted.
