Virginia Giuffre, a victim of sex trafficking, found herself in legal trouble just days before she was involved in a bus crash. Initially, Giuffre claimed the crash had caused fatal injuries to her.
Prior to the accident, Giuffre, formerly known as Virginia Roberts, was charged with violating a family violence restraining order. In a social media post on Sunday, she shared a picture from what she claimed was her hospital bed, stating she had a mere four days left to live.
According to Giuffre’s account, her vehicle was struck by a school bus traveling at 110km/h, resulting in kidney failure. Allegedly, medical professionals informed her that she had only a few days to live.
A spokesman for Giuffre admitted on Wednesday that she had ‘made a mistake’ and was not dying, and had not intended to publish the post publicly.
Now Daily Mail Australia can reveal Giuffre was listed at a Perth Magistrates Court ten days before the crash over the alleged breach of the family violence restraining order.
Her estranged husband Robert Giuffre was also listed at the same court the month before for allegedly ‘providing inadequate storage facility for firearms’.
It is understood the couple recently separated after 22 years of marriage, and no longer live together at their lavish $1.9million mansion in Perth’s beachside suburb of Ocean Reef.
They bought the six-bedroom home five years ago following her reported $20million payout from Prince Andrew after she accused him of sexually abusing her when she was a teenager.

They now appear to be locked in a messy tug of love over their teenage son and daughter.
Two days before the car crash, Giuffre posted a sun-dappled picture of her children on a beach on March 22, accompanied by an apparent desperate plea to see them.
‘My beautiful babies have no clue how much I love them and they’re being poisoned with lies,’ she posted.
‘I miss them so very much. I have been through hell and back in my 41 years but this is incredibly hurting me worse than anything else.
‘Hurt me, abuse me but don’t take my babies. My heart is shattered and every day that passes my sadness only deepens.’
In the post from hospital a week later, she added: ‘I’ve gone into kidney renal failure, they’ve given me four days to live, transferring me to a specialist hospital in urology.
‘I’m ready to go, just not until I see my babies one last time. My heart is shattered and every day that passes my sadness only deepens.’
Giuffre met her future husband she was just 19 while training as a masseuse in Thailand.

The course had been paid for by the late paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, who had sex trafficked Giuffre with his accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell.
On Tuesday, Western Australia Police revealed Giuffre was a passenger in a car involved in a ‘minor collision’ with a bus in Neergabby, 80km north of Perth, on March 24, and no-one had been injured.
According to 9News Perth, Giuffre’s 71-year-old ‘carer’ was driving the car at the time.
Police said the collision was ‘reported by the bus driver the following day. The car sustained approximately $2000 worth of damage’.
‘We have no report of any serious injuries,’ Acting Western Australian Police Commissioner Kylie Whiteley said.
Giuffre is understood to have been treated at a local health centre afterwards for a pre-existing condition and released.
She later checked into another hospital in the early hours of Tuesday, after the disturbing Instagram post – which appeared to show her badly bruised – went public.
She rescinded the ‘deathbed’ farewell claims via a spokesperson on Wednesday and said she mistakenly posted them to her public Instagram page.

Her father Sky Roberts told DailyMail.com that he is ‘sick to my stomach’ and would do anything to be able to fly from his home in Florida to be by his daughter’s hospital bedside in Australia.
Daily Mail Australia is not suggesting Ms Giuffre made the incident up or exaggerated it.
