Photos resurface of Prince Andrew, Ghislaine Maxwell, Donald Trump at Heidi Klum’s party
Previously unseen pictures have surfaced of Prince Andrew, Donald Trump and Ghislaine Maxwell at Heidi Klum’s Halloween party.
Previously unseen pictures of Prince Andrew at supermodel Heidi Klum’s 2000 Halloween party have surfaced, showing him rubbing shoulders with Donald Trump and Ghislaine Maxwell.
The disgraced royal – who was recently sacked from official duties after a disastrous BBC interview about his links to convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein – was photographed at the hookers and pimps-themed party in a suit alongside Maxwell, who was dressed in gold leather pants, leopard print coat, and bleached blonde wig.
And despite the US President’s widely-ridiculed claim on Tuesday that he “doesn’t know Prince Andrew”, according to a witness at the party, Mr Trump had been chatting with the Prince on that night almost two decades ago.
“Andrew … said hello to Donald, they were friends and any time Donald arrived at a party he made sure to say hello to every single celebrity. Always,” the source told the Daily Mail.
Mr Trump was also pictured with Ms Maxwell and his then-girlfriend, Melania Knauss (now Trump), at the party.
In other photos from the night, Klum was seen resting a hand on Prince Andrew’s shoulder and leaning in for an intimate conversation, while a laughing Ms Maxwell looked on.
Ms Maxwell, Epstein’s ex-girlfriend who has reportedly been close friends with Prince Andrew for decades, was also seen with an arm thrown over his shoulder as he leaned on a table.
Many Epstein accusers have claimed that Maxwell acted as his “madam” and helped procure young girls for the billionaire paedophile to have sex with.
Since Epstein’s arrest and prison suicide in July, Ms Maxwell has been in hiding.
But back then, she had no such concerns about being in the public eye. According to the Daily Mail, an eyewitness at the party reported that Trump and Ms Maxwell appeared to know each other and spent about 15 minutes chatting before she left to attend another party with the Duke of York.
“As soon as Prince Andrew came into the party it was pandemonium because no one expected to see him there,” the source told the publication.
“A hookers party for Halloween is not where you’d expect to see one of the Queen’s sons. No one could believe he was there. Prince Andrew was with Ghislaine and they were greeted by Heidi Klum.
“While Andrew was chatting with Heidi, Ghislaine went over to speak with Donald Trump.”
Prince Andrew was forced to step aside from royal duties in November following a trainwreck interview with the BBC about his ties to Epstein, in which he expressed no remorse over their relationship and failed to show any sympathy to the billionaire’s many victims.
During an official visit to the UK for a NATO summit this week, Mr Trump denied knowing Prince Andrew, despite the pair having been photographed together on numerous occasions.
The US President also distanced himself from Epstein this year, despite previously gushing over him as a “terrific guy” in a 2000 interview with New York Magazine.
But when Epstein was later arrested for sex trafficking underage girls, Trump denied knowing him very well and said he “wasn’t a fan”.
