In October 2026, a framed photo of Carole Radziwill was reported found in one of Jeffrey Epstein's rooms. Radziwill had already published a Substack essay saying Ghislaine Maxwell took her author photo as a favor and that she never knew of Maxwell's crimes. She then commented on Carlos King's Instagram post, denying she ever met Epstein and calling any link to a sex trafficking ring absurd. The comment, up for about 30 minutes, also defended Sai and addressed her friendship with Maxwell, which she says was 20 years ago.
