Epstein Victim to Name Polarizing Official in Posthumous Memoir

There was reportedly an “intense legal fight” to keep the official’s name out of the book.

Virginia Giuffre, one of the most prominent accusers of Prince Andrew and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, is reportedly set to name-drop a controversial American official in her forthcoming memoir. Giuffre’s posthumous autobiography Nobody’s Girl, scheduled for release on Oct. 21, names former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, according to The U.S. Sun. “Her account names new names,” an unnamed source told the publication. “There was an intense legal fight to keep Kissinger’s name out of the book. But after his death, he can now be included without fear of legal reprisal.” Kissinger, credited with shaping a divisive U.S. foreign policy during the Nixon and Ford administrations, died in November 2023 at the age of 100. The nature of Kissinger’s mention in Giuffre’s upcoming book was not immediately clear. Giuffre died by suicide at 41 in April 2025. The memoir “may also make uncomfortable reading for President Trump,” the source told The Sun. Though Trump and Epstein were close friends for years, Ted Doughty, a spokesperson for the publishing house Knopf, told the Associated Press that Giuffre made “no allegations of abuse against Trump.”
