British socialite ‘put together group of girls’ for Jeffrey Epstein, emails suggest

A British socialite and model appeared to procure “girls” for convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, emails suggest.

Annabelle Neilson appears numerous times in the latest tranche of documents relating to disgraced financier Epstein, released by the US Department of Justice on Friday.

Neilson, who died at the age of 49 in 2018, was a prominent model in the 1990s and 2000s and was a fixture of the London party scene. She later appeared on the TV programme Ladies of London in the 2010s.

The latest release of files appears to show that Neilson emailed Epstein numerous times between 2010 and 2012, after his 2008 conviction for soliciting prostitution from a minor.

In an email dated 15 September 2010, Epstein wrote: “I will have Ghislaine reach out to Annabelle Neilson.”

Two days later, an email signed by “Annabelle” said: “Hi Jeffrey. So I am putting a little group of girls together. Hopefuly one of them will have all the right qualities you desire.

“Wish I was twenty years younger and could speak French!!!

“I have to say that a few of my girls, who would be perfect for the job but are unfortunately past their sell-by date, would of all dropped their husband and almost children for the job when I asked them.”

The email continued: “You know I’ve just had a spark of genius while writing this, I think I may have the right girl.”

Epstein replied saying: “I appreciate the effort – and you.”

The following month, an email to Epstein from an account signed off by an “Annabelle” and appearing to be Ms Neilson said: “How are you and all the girls?!

Additionally, an email from a redacted sender to an account named Annabelle Neilson on 26 January 2011 read: “Hey Annabelle, let’s you and I try and find something cute for JE tonight.”

Epstein and Neilson also appeared to discuss art, including a sculpture she recommended to him.
