The ‘Lady of the House’ Who Was Long Entangled With Jeffrey Epstein

Shortly after Ghislaine Maxwell arrived in New York from England in the early 1990s, she was looking for a new start. She had just lost her father, a British media mogul, along with much of her family fortune and her social standing.

What is clear is that their partnership was deep, entangled and continued even after their romance ended. Over more than a decade, Maxwell, now 57, helped manage Epstein’s homes, facilitate his social relationships and recruit masseuses to help satisfy his seemingly insatiable appetite for massages, according to his former employees. Some of Epstein’s accusers allege that in their experiences the massages were just a pretext for sexual abuse by Epstein, according to court records.

“Her father was a swashbuckling rogue,” Mason said in an interview. “Jeffrey had a less social persona, but he was in his way swashbuckling, too.” Once Maxwell began spending a lot of time at the Florida house in the late 1990s, the visitors began coming. Young women, from the Palm Beach area and Europe. Celebrities, such as David Copperfield and Donald Trump. A new guest corridor of the house was constructed; Prince Andrew was among the regulars, Alessi said.

Rellie knew that Maxwell, whose lawyers did not respond to requests for comment, came from a family that had been engulfed in scandal but said it gave her a kind of frisson. “That was part of the mystique,” he said. “New York people enjoy salacious stories. Having somebody who has a colorful past, including a dad who was controversial, made her interesting.”

She continued to reside at least part-time in Epstein’s homes in New York and Florida. “Mrs. Maxwell was like the lady of the house,” said Alfredo Rodriguez, who worked in the Palm Beach mansion in 2005, explaining that household expenses were paid out of a bank account in Maxwell’s name, according to a deposition in a court case.

In a 2009 lawsuit against Epstein, Virginia Giuffre alleged that Epstein and Maxwell sexually abused her starting when she was 16. She said she had been working as a changing room assistant at the Mar-a-Lago Club when Maxwell invited her to Epstein’s home with promises that she could learn massage therapy and earn a lot of money. Once there, she said, Maxwell helped Epstein force her into sexual activity with him, then paid her $200 that day.
