It was most recently reported by former Epstein associate, Steven Hoffenberg that Maxwell was prepared to name some big names.
"She’s going to be naming some big names — not only in terms of those who abused underage girls at Epstein’s parties but also those who made financial agreements with Epstein or benefited from his generosity, including flying on his plane and staying at his homes," Hoffenberg explained via The New York Post. "She won’t be able to handle jail – and she’ll immediately start talking to try to get out of it."
Prince Andrew has found himself involved in the case due to his close relationship with both Maxwell and Epstein, and the reports made by one woman, Virginia Guiffre, formerly Roberts, that she was allegedly brought to the UK aged 17 to have sex with the royal. According to Guiffre, she was introduced to Prince Andrew by Ghislaine.
The royal family has denied the claims, with Prince Andrew explaining during his controversial Newsnight interview with Emily Maitlis that he had no recollection of meeting her. He also went on to find holes in the allegations by explaining that he medically couldn’t sweat (something doctors have since disputed) and using a Pizza Express in Woking as his ‘alibi’.
