Prince Andrew’s lawyer is demanding that Prince Andrew hand over documents explaining why he doesn’t feel sweaty – an excuse Prince Andrew used to prove that he never met her.
Virginia Giuffre’s attorneys want to know what the Duke of York thinks about their alleged condition of hyperhidrosis and anhidrosis. Court documents show that.
Andrew said in a BBC 2019 interview that he had never sweated on the dancefloor in 2001 with Giuffre, at London’s club. This was because his condition makes it difficult for him to lose weight.
This claim was dismissed and newspapers printed photographs the following day of the Duke sweating at different times.

Andrew said in a BBC interview in 2019 (pictured), that he had never sweated on the London dancefloor before he had sex with Giuffre, 2001. This was because his condition makes it difficult for him to lose weight.
Also, the court documents reveal that Giuffre’s lawyers have also requested deeply personal information from the British royal. These include ‘any documents regarding any allegations of extramarital or sexual abuse made against you.
Giuffre requested the request as part of an August lawsuit for emotional distress and battery.
Giuffre asserts that she was forced by Epstein to have three sex sessions with the Duke in 2001. Prince Andrew vigorously denies these allegations.

They were filed on the same day that Andrew’s close friend Ghislaine maxwell was convicted for five counts of recruiting or trafficking underage girl to Jeffrey Epstein.

Andrew stated that he did not sweat after he was given an “overdose” of adrenaline during the Falklands War.
Andrew was a helicopter pilot during the 1982 conflict. He flew many missions, including evacuations of casualties.
Giuffre’s lawyers David Boies & Sigrid McCawley filed a list of items they need from Andrew as part of the discovery process, in which both parties hand over documents.
One request asks for: “All documents concerning your alleged medical condition, anhidrosis or hypohidrosis”
Andrew Brettler’s lawyer, Andrew Brettler denies it. He claims that the request is ‘harassing. It seeks confidential or private information. Documents that are irrelevant and immaterial. And not reasonably calculated to lead the discovery.

Further requests include all documents regarding Andrew’s schedules and meetings in 2001, when he allegedly had sex with Giuffre three times when she was 17.
Andrew’s lawyers rejected the request for all information about allegations of extramatrial sex or sexual abuse on the grounds they are ‘confidential and private information and documents that are irrelevant, immaterial’.
One request is for: ‘All Documents concerning Defendant’s travel to or from, or presence in or on: a. Epstein’s planes; b. Florida; c. New York; d. New Mexico; e. the United States Virgin Islands; f. a Pizza Express located in Woking, England; or g. the Club Tramp nightclub, located in London, England’.
Andrew said that Pizza Express was where he was at the time Giuffre claimed he had sex with him in London. Tramp, however, is where she says they were.
Epstein’s homes were also located in these other places.
Another request wants any communications between Andrew and Epstein or Maxwell and their lawyers concerning ‘sexual abuse’ and Andrew’s ‘sexual relations with anyone’.
Andrew’s lawyers rejected this as ‘overbroad, burdensome and oppressive’.
In court documents, it is also revealed that Giuffre’s attorneys are asking the British monarch for intimate information as part of an August lawsuit Giuffre brought for emotional distress and battery. They were filed just days after Andrew’s close friend Ghislaine maxwell was convicted for five counts of trafficking and recruiting underage girls to Jeffrey Epstein.
A further request asks for: ‘All Documents concerning any massage that Defendant has received or requested, including but not limited to any documents concerning any individuals who may have provided such massages to Defendant’.
A second document submitted to court by the Duke is the interrogatories, which are requests from him to reply to various questions.
They include identifying any person or entities who can provide information about people who tracked Andrew’s whereabouts while he was visiting any property owned by Maxwell or Epstein.
Andrew’s response says one such entity would be ‘Buckingham Palace’.
Andrew’s attorneys have asked for the case to be dismissed. A judge from New York’s federal court will decide if this is possible.
Andrew attempted to argue that the suit was invalid because Giuffre is a resident of Australia earlier this week.
Boies wrote a note stating her intention to go back to Colorado.
Andrew has strongly denied Giuffre’s claims and claimed she filed the lawsuit to get another ‘payday at his expense’.
