A number of prominent X users, including House Republican Nancy Mace, have shared a 2019 social media post from Virginia Giuffre in which she insisted that “in no way, shape or form am I suicidal.”
It comes after Giuffre’s family confirmed she had died by suicide in Western Australia on Friday at the age of 41.
Newsweek contacted Giuffre’s spokesperson and legal representatives for comment on Saturday via email outside of regular office hours.
Why It Matters
Giuffre alleged she was groomed on behalf of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein and repeatedly forced to have sex with British royal Prince Andrew in 2001 when she was aged 17. The prince denied the claim and in 2022 settled Giuffre’s lawsuit with an undisclosed payment.
In August 2019 Epstein was found dead in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York. An investigation concluded he died by suicide, though some commentators have continued to argue he was murdered.
During the 2024 presidential election campaign President Donald Trump said he would have “no problem” releasing files related to the Epstein case. In February a group of conservative influencers visited the White House where they were given binders labelled as “Epstein Files: Part 1” but critics say little new information was revealed.
What To Know
In December 2019 on Twitter, now X, Giuffre responded to another user who posted the “F.B.I. will kill her to protect the ultra rich and well connected.”
Giuffre replied: “I am making it publicly known that in no way, shape or form am I suicidal. I have made this known to my therapist and GP – If something happens to me – in the sake of my family do not let this go away and help me to protect them. Too many evil people want to see me [quieted].”
Following her death on Friday a number of high profile figures shared a screenshot of this post on X including Mace, who added: “This gave me goosebumps.”

Conservative leaning commentator Benny Johnson, who has over 3.6 million X followers, also shared the screenshot writing: “VIRGINIA GIUFFRE: ‘I am making it publicly known that in no way, shape, or form am I suicidal.’ This post received over 3,300 shares and 560,000 views on X.
Influencer Oli London posted the screenshot on X adding: “Chilling tweet from Jeffrey Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre resurfaces, following her death.”
The “Republicans against Trump” X account, which has 893,000 followers, also shared the screenshot in a post that attracted more than 170,000 views.
House Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene shared a photograph of Giuffre with Prince Andrew adding: “Jeffrey Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre has died by ‘suicide.’ The truth needs to come out more matter who is responsible.”
Giuffre had three children and lived with them and her husband in the Neergabby area of Perth in Western Australia. According to the BBC there have been reports she had recently separated from her husband.
Western Australia Police said Giuffre’s death is being investigated but the “early indication is the death is not suspicious.”
Virginia Giuffre Car Accident
Earlier this month Giuffre posted on Instagram that she had been seriously injured in a car accident and had been given just four days to live.
She shared a photograph of herself with visible head injuries adding: “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 110km as we were slowing for a turn that no matter what your car is made of it might as well be a tin can.
“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.”
Giuffre’s family later said she hadn’t meant to make this public.
The Western Australia Police Force described the incident involving Giuffre as a “minor crash.”
What People Are Saying
In a statement released on Friday Giuffre’s family said: “There are no words that can express the grave loss we feel today with the passing of our sweet Virginia. She was heroic and will always be remembered for her incredible courage and loving spirit. In the end, the toll of abuse is so heavy that it became unbearable for Virginia to handle its weight. We know that she is with the angels.”
Her attorney, Sigrid McCawley, told People in a statement, “Virginia was much more than a client to me; she was a dear friend and an incredible champion for other victims. Her courage pushed me to fight harder, and her strength was awe-inspiring. The world has lost an amazing human being today. Rest in peace, my sweet angel.”
What Happens Next
An investigation into Giuffre’s death will be conducted by Western Australia Police.
