Naomi Campbell Breaks Silence After New Jeffrey Epstein Files Allege That She Gave Him Access to A-List Parties and Fashion Events
The release of the Jeffrey Epstein files have shown links and connections between the late convicted sex offender and many high-profile people.
One name that has been associated with Epstein for several years is disgraced British royal family member Andrew Mounbatten-Windsor. In 2019, after he was accused of having sex with Virginia Giuffre years earlier when she was a minor, King Charles brother tried to explain away the accusation in a disastrous TV interview. Although he denied any wrongdoing, settling a court case with his accuser didn’t do anything to help his reputation.
The public outcry and pressure from others within the monarchy became so great that the king decided it was time to strip his brother of his “prince” title and evict him from his lavish royal residence.
A statement released on Oct. 30 read: “His Majesty has today initiated a formal process to remove the Style, Titles and Honours of Prince Andrew. Prince Andrew will now be known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor.[Andrew’s] lease on Royal Lodge has, to date, provided him with legal protection to continue in residence. Formal notice has now been served to surrender the lease, and he will move to alternative private accommodation.”
“These censures are deemed necessary, notwithstanding the fact that he continues to deny the allegations against him. Their Majesties wish to make clear that their thoughts and utmost sympathies have been, and will remain with, the victims and survivors of any and all forms of abuse.”
One of the other names that has come up in the Epstein files is supermodel Naomi Campbell. According to The New York Times, the millions of files released by the U.S. Justice Department include Campbell’s name in emails, suggesting that they were in contact during the final two decades of Epstein’s life regarding event invitations and business-related meetings facilitated by the late financier’s assistant.
Attorneys for Campbell addressed what was in the documents, explaining that she was unaware of Epstein’s criminal activity prior to his 2019 arrest and did not have any contact with him after that. They added that the interactions between them were limited and often occurred in professional settings.
Campbell decided to respond as well. She took to her Instagram Stories on Feb. 15 and did not mince words, writing, “I said it in 2019, and I’ll say it again now: don’t come at me when there is no wrongdoing on my part. I stand in complete solidarity with the courageous survivors.”
Following Epstein’s arrest in 2019, Campbell shared a video response condemning his actions, saying, “What he has done is indefensible. When I heard it, it sickened me to my stomach just like everybody else.”
The fashion model also expressed empathy for Epstein’s victims and the survivors as she has had to deal with some experiences like that herself, sharing, “I’ve had my fair share of sexual predators. I stand with the victims. They are scarred for life.”
