GHISLAINE Maxwell has claimed Prince Andrew didn’t have sex with Virginia Giuffre, according to a newly released transcript.
Epstein’s convicted accomplice made the comments to Justice Department officials the US President during a two-day interview last month.

Maxwell was questioned by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche in Tallahassee, Florida.
Her claims have come to light after transcripts and audio files were released today.
He asked the inmate, who is currently serving a 20-year sentence after being found guilty of child sex trafficking, what she thought, saw or heard regarding claims surrounding Virginia Giuffre.
While the name had been redacted, it is circumstantially highly likely to be Giuffre given the context of their conversation – including accurate timelines, and discussion of an infamous photograph.
Maxwell said: “What’s an even bigger word than bulls**t?”
The Deputy Attorney General pressed: “Okay. Why? Why do you think that?”
Maxwell responded: “I’m going to tell you right now. I’m so happy to tell you. I’m like excited. I’m beyond excited.
“So there’s been a mixture of what I’ve actually seen and know from the evidence versus what I’ve put together.
“It is impossible for me at this point to separate everything, but I’ll tell you what I know versus what I saw and what I physically have in here, but it’s helpful for you to know.
“The allegation, I have to go with the allegation. The allegation was that at my house in London, in March, whatever that was, 2001 I believe, we went to London, especially so that [redacted] could have a — or could have a relationship with Prince Andrew and she was paid a vast amount of money for that purpose.
“And that she then got in the — in my bathroom in my house in London and had sex, sexual relations with him and then went into my guest room and had full blown sex and then left my house, or he left, and she felt used and disgusting.
“And a photograph was taken of them just before all these events took place in my study. That is what is the story.
“Oh, and then after that she met him several other times. But we’ll come to that.”
The transcripts were made public as the Trump administration continues to battle speculation surrounding the late disgraced financier.
The administration faced backlash in February when right-wing influencers were invited to the White House and provided by Bondi with binders marked “The Epstein Files: Phase 1” and “Declassified”.
But the dossiers contained information that was already largely made public.
Then Bondi claimed officials were trawling through a “truckload” of previously withheld evidence.
However, the Justice Department said last month that no “further disclosure would be appropriate or warranted” and “only a fraction” of it would have been released had the case gone to trial, in order to protect victims.
Epstein was found dead in his Manhattan jail cell on August 10, 2019.
Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence after being found guilty of child sex trafficking and other crimes.
After her interview, for undisclosed reasons, the prisoner was moved from the low-security federal prison in Florida to a minimum security prison camp in Texas.
