Virginia Giuffre’s loved ones have detailed her heartbreaking final days in the lead-up to her death last week. Giuffre — who became the most prominent victim of late convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein — died by suicide Friday , her family confirmed. She was 41. She had been living in Australia at the time of her death, though her life began to unravel in recent months following her split from husband Robert Giuffre after 22 years of marriage. The pair were embroiled in a bitter custody battle over their three children, ages 19, 16 and 15. Giuffre’s brother, Sky Roberts, told People earlier this month that she hadn’t been able to gain access to her kids in months due to her estranged husband’s restraining order filing. “It’s the worst pain in the world to not have access to your children,” he told the outlet. “Can you imagine the pain? I will tell you, all the physical (pain) will never amount to the pain of being separated from your children in that way.” Meanwhile, Sky’s wife and Giuffre’s sister-in-law, Amanda Roberts , alleged to the outlet that Giuffre’s husband had been physically abusive. “I think the last incident that they had, she almost died,” Amanda said of an alleged January incident. “And we had to speak that truth with her on the phone.” “And I think she had acknowledged that if she had one more instance with him, she wasn’t making it out of there,” she added. Giuffre made headlines last month when she posted a photo of her bruised face on social media — claiming she had been struck by a bus and had “four days to live.”
