Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's long-standing claim that he was at a Pizza Express restaurant in Woking on the day Virginia Giuffre alleged they had sex could not be verified after the restaurant chain conducted an internal inquiry.
It was reported that Pizza Express examined whether there was evidence the former prince had visited its Surrey branch on 10 March 2001, the date at the centre of Giuffre's allegations. After reviewing available records and attempting to trace former staff, the company reportedly found no evidence that he had been at the restaurant. It also found no evidence that he had not been there.
