This information about 2001 is told by Giuffre in 2011, with an update in 2021. In 2011, she refers to Maxwell and Epstein as "her hosts":

Sharon Churcher, who flew to Australia to meet Virginia Giuffre and told her story in an article published in
The Mail on Sunday on
February 26, 2011.

Among Giuffre’s memories of far-flung travels on Epstein’s jet was a six-week trip in
March 2001 to “Paris, Spain, and Tangier,” with a stop in London, for which she said Epstein paid her $15,000. Landing in London, she, Epstein, and Ghislaine Maxwell were driven straight to Maxwell’s townhouse in the affluent neighborhood of Belgravia. Giuffre was given an upstairs bedroom, where, on their first morning, a “chirpy” Maxwell allegedly jumped on her bed and said, “Get up, sleepyhead, you’ve got a big day. We’ve got to go shopping. You need a dress, as you’re going to dance with a prince tonight.”
“She said I needed to be ‘smiley’ and ‘bubbly’ because he was the queen’s son,” Giuffre said. After a shopping spree at Burberry, they returned to Maxwell’s home, where
Virginia showered and dressed before joining her hosts at around 4 p.m. “When I went downstairs, Ghislaine and Jeffrey were in the lounge. There was a knock at the door. Ghislaine led Andrew in, and we kissed each other on the cheek. Ghislaine served tea from a porcelain pot and biscuits. She knew Sarah Ferguson, and they talked fondly about Andrew’s daughters [Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie].”
The four of them went to dinner, then to the private nightclub Tramp, where, Giuffre said, Andrew danced with her. After an hour and a half at Tramp, they returned to Maxwell’s home.
“All of us went upstairs, and I asked Jeffrey to snap a picture of me with the prince,” Giuffre told the Mail. “I wanted something to show my mom.”
As she shared her memories, Giuffre brought out a plain envelope filled with photographs. They were snapshots “of her time with Epstein from various trips she had done,” says photographer Michael Thomas, who teamed up with Churcher on the story. “I think there were about a dozen.”
They showed Virginia in Epstein’s world at 17: “shots of her on her own in Santa Fe, on a horse, in the snow at [Epstein’s] Zorro Ranch entrance, and at the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum.”
And there, among the travel pictures, was an extraordinary photograph of her, Prince Andrew, Duke of York, stood smiling, with his arm around her waist; on the other side was Ghislaine Maxwell, flashing a grin."

In
August 2021, she filed Civil Action No. 1:21-cv-06702,
Virginia L. Giuffre v. Prince Andrew, Duke of York, a/k/a Andrew Albert Christian Edward, accusing the prince of sexual assault and rape in the first and third degree when she was 17."
In the wake of Jeffrey Epstein’s arrest and apparent suicide, Prince Andrew moved from the fringe of a swirling underage-sex scandal toward its white-hot center. His clumsy attempt to clear his name, in a no-holds-barred interview with BBC ‘Newsnight,’ set the stage for his royal demotion—and...
