On March 24, 2025, Giuffre was involved in a minor collision with a school bus in Neergabby, north of Perth, Australia. The Western Australia Police described the accident as minor, reporting no injuries and approximately $1,200 in damages.

Despite the initial reports, Giuffre later posted on Instagram from a hospital bed, claiming she had only four days to live due to kidney failure resulting from the accident. Her family clarified that her condition worsened days after the incident, leading to her hospitalization. They expressed gratitude for public support and explained that her social media post was intended for a private account. Amid these events, Lady Victoria Hervey, a former associate of Prince Andrew, publicly questioned Giuffre’s claims.

The situation has garnered mixed reactions on social media, with some expressing support for Giuffre and others echoing scepticism similar to Hervey’s.
