Overview
- Hilton, 44, told The Sunday Times she does not remember ever meeting Maxwell and described herself as a frequent target for attention because she is a “good clickbait name.”
- The allegation dates to Surviving Jeffrey Epstein, where Christopher Mason recounted Maxwell saying the then‑19‑year‑old Hilton would be “perfect for Jeffrey” and asking for an introduction.
- A widely circulated image shows Hilton with Maxwell and Donald Trump at the Anand Jon Fashion Show in New York on Sept. 18, 2000, though the precise setting of the alleged approach remains unclear.
- Maxwell was convicted on multiple sex‑trafficking‑related counts and received a 20‑year prison sentence, which she is serving at a federal facility in Texas.
- Renewed interest in the claim follows political fights over releasing Epstein‑related documents, with President Trump publicly urging House Republicans to vote for disclosure.
