Prince Andrew's accuser Virginia Giuffre has agreed to hand over a secret document which could defeat her lawsuit.
Ms Giuffre's lawyers will hand the duke a copy of a 'release' signed in 2009 after her settlement with sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.
The Prince is being sued in New York by Ms Giuffre, now 38, who alleges he sexually abused her on three separate occasions when she was 17 – in London, New York and on serial US paedophile Jeffrey Epstein's island in the Caribbean. Andrew, 61, has consistently and fiercely denied the claims.
The Duke of York's attorney's will try to use the clause to exempt him from any fault in her claims against him, the Sun on Sunday reported.
Ms Giuffre's lawyers said the agreement was 'irrelevant' because it only offers protection to lawyers, employees, agents and heirs.
Her lead lawyer, David Boies, said he was happy to hand the document over to Andrew's team in a legal document filed in New York this week.
