A picture has emerged of Ghislaine Maxwell, ex-lover of disgraced billionaire Jeffrey Epstein, helping former President Bill Clinton celebrate his daughter’s wedding in 2010.
Maxwell was pictured at Chelsea’s nuptuals long after Bill Clinton had cut ties with Epstein, according to the Daily Mail . Epstein was convicted of soliciting underage girls, and Maxwell has been accused in court papers of procuring them for Epstein, her former boyfriend, charges that she vehemently denies.

Virginia Roberts, who has recently claimed in court papers that she was kept as Epstein’s “sex slave” and was forced to sleep with Prince Andrew three times, alleges that she met Clinton twice. She has also asserted that Epstein traveled with Clinton to a number of destinations, and that he hosted a dinner on his island for the former president after Clinton left office. On that occasion, she claims that Epstein invited two young girls, allegedly around 17-years-old, from New York, and sat them at a table with Clinton and Maxwell.
“Maybe Jeffrey thought they would entertain Bill, but I saw no evidence that he was interested in them… He and Jeffrey and Ghislaine seemed to have a very good relationship. Bill was very funny.”
Clinton’s tangential tie to Epstein has reportedly proven frustrating for his wife, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who is thought to be planning a presidential bid of her own. As the Inquisitr previously reported, witnesses claimed to see visible tension between the pair at the funeral of former New York Governor Mario Cuomo, amid rumors in Washington that Hillary is furious with her husband.

Though there is no evidence that Bill Clinton was involved in or complicit with nefarious behavior in regards to his relationship with Epstein, conservative sites have been buzzing with the news. Republican National Committee chair Reince Priebus stated in a recent interview that Bill Clinton’s activities would be fair game if Hillary launched her presidential bid, according to the Hill .
“Bill Clinton’s activities are fair game for Hillary Clinton to answer, absolutely… And if there are things that Bill Clinton has done that we don’t know about, politically or through business enterprise, that are questionable and/or illegal, then we ought to look into it and ask Hillary about it too, because the presumption is that she’s gonna benefit from the successes of Bill Clinton, so I think it’s fair game.”
