Since the arrest of Epstein’s associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, people have conspired that the cookbook author is involved in the sex offender’s case and was accused of being a pedophile.

TEIGEN ADDRESSES THE ISSUES

According to Teigen, she has “never met the man,” nor has she “been to the island. Or on the plane.” Despite her efforts to clear her name, many Twitter users continue to harass her, leaving the mom-of-two “worried” for her family.

The 66-year-old reportedly took his own life a day after new claims were made against him, despite the detention facility staff trying to save him.

She also claimed that 60,000 tweets of hers had been deleted because of the posts users have been digging up to use against her, including 2013 tweets about toddlers.

Epstein previously pleaded not guilty to charges made against him, including running an illegal sex traffic operation and was placed behind bars after judges denied his request to be released on bail.

Teigen’s name was dragged into the situation after claims suggested she was among those who took the flight on Epstein’s private plane.
