A woman has come forward claiming she saw Britain’s Prince Andrew dancing with his accuser Virginia Giuffre and remembered the encounter because she stepped on the royal’s foot.
Lawyer Lisa Bloom, who represents five women who say they were sexually assaulted by Jeffrey Epstein, revealed she has an unnamed sixth client who says she witnessed the Duke of York with Ms Giuffre in Tramp nightclub in 2001.
Ms Giuffre, previously known as Virginia Roberts, claims she was trafficked by convicted sex offender Epstein and alleges the duke slept with her on three separate occasions, including when she was 17 – still a minor under US law.
Andrew, who strenuously denies the allegations, is facing calls to talk to the FBI and US prosecutors
Ms Bloom told a press conference in New York that the girl stepped on Andrew’s foot by mistake while dancing next to him and a friend pointed out who he was.
She said: “She thought to herself ‘oh my God, I’m in the presence of a royal’. It was a very big moment to her.
“She says that she gawked at him because he was a prince.
“After she was done staring at him for quite some time, she looked at who he was with and it was a very young girl about her age.
“And in the photographs that she has seen since, she identifies that young woman, or girl, as Virginia Roberts.”
