Warpole told MailOnline: ?"The earthquake happened the day after my story came out and I remember thinking how much more important this was than who had or hadn't slept with a Prince.
"I thought auctioning this bit of cheeky Royal memorabilia could be my way of helping out."
Warpole, who now works as a digger drive and still lives in Wiltshire, added: "Miss Piggy had been living quietly up in my attic for 20 years, so hopefully someone can give her a new lease of life that befits her colourful outfit and story. To me it was just a stuffed toy given to me by a friend.
"But I hope it raises a lot of money for a good cause."
She explained the earthquake happened the day after the story she was Prince Harry's first sexual partner was revealed and she remembered thinking how much more important the natural disaster was compared to her dalliance with the royal.
"I thought auctioning this bit of cheeky Royal memorabilia could be my way of helping out."
The digger driver, who still lives in Wiltshire, added: "Miss Piggy had been living quietly up in my attic for 20 years, so hopefully someone can give her a new lease of life that befits her colourful outfit and story.
"To me it was just a stuffed toy given to me by a friend," she continued. "But I hope it raises a lot of money for a good cause."
Sasha was given the gift on her 19th birthday after the Duke won the doll during a trip to Thorpe Park. The pair would have sex behind a pub later that day.
In his memoir, released on January 11, Prince Harry wrote about what he describes as an "inglorious episode" with a woman who was fond of horses and that "treated me not unlike a young stallion".
He described the five-minute romp as "a quick ride, after which she'd smacked my rump and sent me off to graze".
Walpole later confirmed the details in an interview with The Sun, saying, "I don't mind him saying that because it isn't really very glorious, is it? We were drunk and having sex in a field."?
Walpole knew the Prince from her job as a horse groomer at the now-King Charles' Gloucestershire estate, Highgrove.
Walpole shared she had recently broken up with her ?long-term boyfriend, Skip, and was dismayed when he turned up with his new girlfriend. Prince Harry, having seen this, offered her a tray of ten shots to help her let loose.
By the end of the night, the two went out for a smoke break, which is when the infamous session occurred.?
"He started to kiss me. It was passionate, intense. We both knew. It went from a kiss on to the floor pretty quickly," the now mum-of-two recalled.
"It was instant, fiery, wham bam, between two friends. It was sparky because we shouldn't have been doing it. He wasn't 'Prince Harry' to me, this was Harry, my friend, and the situation had got a little bit out of control. It felt naughty, I suppose, in the sense that it shouldn't be happening.
"We didn't set out to do it จC it wasn't premeditated and I didn't know he was a virgin. There were no virgin vibes จC he seemed to know what he was doing. It was quick, wild, exciting. We were both drunk. It wouldn't have happened if we weren't."
