In a recent development in the Epstein case, it seems that Ghislaine Maxwell allegedly tried to recruit a young Paris Hilton for Jeffrey Epstein.
On August 7, the Daily Mail reported that the docuseries Surviving Jeffrey Epstein contains an interview with Maxwell’s former friend Christopher Mason, who claims that the British socialite considered the then 19-year-old Hilton “perfect for Jeffrey.”
According to Mason, Maxwell noticed Hilton at the Anand Jon Fashion Show in New York in September 2000, not long after she was signed to Donald Trump’s modelling agency. Designer Anand Jon Alexander is himself currently serving a prison sentence for sexual assault of a minor.
“A friend of mine was at a party and Ghislaine said, ‘Oh my god, who is that?’ and was looking at this pretty, younger teenage girl,” Mason said in the docuseries. “She said, ‘Do you know her?’ My friend said, ‘Yeah, she’s called Paris Hilton’ and Ghislaine said, ‘Ohhhh she’d be perfect for Jeffrey. Can you introduce us?'”
Mason admitted that “it seemed a bit naughty” at the time, before continuing to admit that there were already rumours surrounding Maxwell’s prevalence for finding young girls for Epstein to “date.” However, it remains unconfirmed if Maxwell ever actually approached Hilton.
Earlier this year, Hilton announced that her upcoming documentary This Is Paris would be uncovering a “heartbreaking trauma” from her past that she “still [has] nightmares about”. However, whether it’s related to Maxwell and Epstein is still unknown at this point.
Maxwell was arrested in July 2020, and it is alleged that she conspired with Epstein in the abuse of minors. Apparently, Maxwell is ready to spill some “big names” during her court hearings, however she has pleaded not guilty and remains in custody.
