She is currently being treated at Sir Charles Gardiner Hospital in Perth, Australia.
On Sunday, Ms Giuffre, née Roberts, shared a concerning selfie from a hospital bed to her Instagram which showed her severely bruised face and upper body.
Ms Giuffre's spokesperson Dini von Mueffing, yesterday said: 'Virginia has been in a serious accident and is receiving medical care in the hospital. She greatly appreciates the support and well wishes people are sending.'
This latest update comes after Prince Andrew's former girlfriend socialite Victoria Hervey called Ms Guiffre a 'fantasist' and suggested that she was lying over the extent of the crash.
Lady Victoria, 48, was dubbed 'nasty' and 'vile' by many social media users since she posted Ms Giuffre's selfie in a hospital bed with the word 'Karma' added to it.
But the aristocrat who briefly dated Prince Andrew in 1999 refused to back down from her brutal Instagram post today.
Speaking exclusively to MailOnline, she said she was continuing to doubt Ms Giuffre's claims that she had been seriously hurt in the crash and had only days to live due to her injuries including kidney failure.
She said: 'Virginia Guiffre is a fantasist. It's been a long drawn out process these last few years, but it's unravelling. Her lies are being exposed. Let's see in three days, but I bet she will still be alive'
She spoke out as police in Australia appeared to confirm that Ms Giuffre had only been involved in what they described as a 'minor' crash with a school bus with no initial reports of anyone being injured.
A Western Australia Police Force spokesperson at the time said they were aware of a 'minor crash' between a bus and a car in Neergabby, north of Perth, on March 24.
The collision was reported by the bus driver the following day. The car sustained about $2,000 (£1,547) worth of damage but there were no injuries reported, the spokesperson said.
Lady Victoria insisted she had no regrets about re-posting the 'Karma' message accompanied by the rocking soundtrack of Europe's 1986 glam rock smash 'The Final Countdown' after it was originally posted by a friend.
She said: 'I re-posted the Karma (post) because I felt, well you know, she deserves it. But I also knew in my head that she was lying.'
Ms Giuffre found herself at the centre of one of the world's biggest scandals when she launched legal action against billionaire Jeffrey Epstein in 2015.
She alleged she was trafficked for sex at age 16 after his associate and ex-lover, Ghislaine Maxwell recruited her from her job as a locker room attendant at Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida.
Ms Giuffre and Maxwell eventually reached an undisclosed settlement over a defamation case in 2017.
Epstein took his own life in a jail cell in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges, while Maxwell was jailed for 20 years in 2022 for conspiring with him to sexually abuse minors.
Ms Giuffre alleges Epstein forced her to have sex with Prince Andrew on at least three occasions when she was 17 and that she spent two days alone with the royal in New Mexico.
In 2022, she received an out-of-court settlement reported to be worth millions from the Duke of York.
The settlement accepted no liability and Andrew has always strongly rejected claims.
But he agreed to pay the unspecified amount to Ms Giuffre and her charity for victims' rights.
