I agree about the OP merlotgran and have asked GNHQ if it can be edited.

A troubling end to a troubled life my sentiments too easzybee.

RIP VG, may you find peace flowers.

Poor woman. A sad ending to a troubled life. May she rest in peace.

The OP is out of order and should be removed or edited.

Poor woman and her poor family. I've just read she met Epstein at Trump's Palm Beach hotel. There is a whole world of power that uses people as they see fit and then discards them.

Poor woman, sexually abuse by a close family member, then living on the streets age 14. Age 17, her father taking her to the hotel where he worked and where she hoped to find work as a masseuse

Poor lady. One of many impressionable and vulnerable young girls used and abused by rich, entitled older men and sucked into their seedy underworld. May she rest in the peace she wasn't afforded in life. flowers

A troubling end to a troubled life. I am sorry for her children.

This is very sad. Meanwhile, those at the top get away unchallenged...it only gets worse not better.

Indeed it is. Poor Virginia, her life became defined by those events. How many others are going through the same right now?

I'm sorry to hear that but I always wondered where her parents were when she was so young and being trafficked. She must have had a troubled childhood.

Oh I am so sorry to hear that.

Yes that is very sad . We will never know the truth and corruption that went on . I feel for her . Poor soul

It’s so very sad for her and her loved ones. She has 3 children. She was selected, groomed and exploited by Epstein. The unavoidable publicity must have meant the abuse defined her so she re-lived it.

How very sad. I doubt we'll ever know the whole story.

But I did respect her for speaking out and being so dogged about exposing those she alleged had been guilty of abuse and trafficking.

Recent reports suggest her marriage had broken down recently.

That might have contributed to her suicide.

Too easy to attribute blame to someone just because mud has already been thrown.

Her life seems to have been troubled from the start. Young vulnerable girls and women like her are easy targets for predatory paedophiles like Epstein and Maxwell.

It's very sad indeed. For her and her family. RIP Virginia.

Whatever you do in top circles they deal with their own way.

nanna8 feel very sad for her family and whatever the truth, another troubled soul is no longer with us 🙏

Await conspiracy theories! Best to avoid dealing with members of the British royal family. A sad ending for a troubled lady.

R.I.P. Virginia..this is a tragedy for her family and friends and people she has supported over the years who never received justice over assault claims…
Hand your head in shame ANDREW
