In addition to the undisclosed settlement amount, which is reported to be between £7.5 and £12 million, the prince’s legal team released a statement, including these remarks.
Prince Andrew has never intended to malign Ms. Giuffre’s character, and he accepts that she has suffered both as an established victim of abuse and as a result of unfair public attacks.
Prince Andrew …pledges to demonstrate his regret for his association with Epstein by supporting the fight against the evils of sex trafficking, and by supporting its victims.

For Prince Andrew, an out of court settlement. For Boris Johnson, a questionnaire from the Met. Being rich and powerful means never having to say your sorry.
