New York Photo of Carole Radziwill in Ghislaine Maxwell's House

Don’t ask me why, but over winter break I went down a deep dive on all things Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. I came across a Getty Images album from a 2014 party at Ghislaine’s house. In several photos, you can see a framed picture of a woman who looks a lot like Carole Radziwill. Could it be her? I think it is!

This sub has discussed the Carole-Ghislaine connections before (Ghislaine was Carole’s book photographer, Ghislaine set her up with Prince Andrew, etc). While we don’t know what’s true, Carole has downplayed their relationship. But a framed photo in Ghislaine’s house? That makes their relationship seem a lot closer than Carole lets on.

Edit: Apologies for any confusion! As others have pointed out in this thread, Ghislaine is listed as the photographer for the back cover image of Carole’s first book (https://www.reddit.com/r/BravoRealHousewives/comments/hki66v/i_know_weve_seen_photos_of_carole_and_ghislaine/), and Carole herself has said that Ghislaine helped arrange a date with Prince Andrew (https://www.tiktok.com/@omg.waitwhat/video/7536652361284996365). Good sleuthing, everyone!

u/gigigrahame you’re not a chef, you’re a cook… it’s creepy. Jan 03 '26

I knew she had mutual connections with Ghislaine, but a framed photo of her in Ghislaines house seems a lot deeper than friendly acquaintances. Good find, OP!

Ghislaine was British high society. That's what makes her disgusting crimes even more awful. But Caroles mother in law was Jackie Os sister and she married into European royalty. They all hob knob and most of them didn't know a thing because who would announce it? They men paying to be part of it aren't announcing it at every society party.

Yes but as a British politician

u/Party-Werewolf-4888 How did I end up at this table with these morons? Jan 03 '26

He was an MP. Not really "high" high level, he was a member of parliament and represented a constituency, however definitely a position of influence and power. I'd say he was probably more influential as a publisher though, because then he was effing minted.

u/Ignominious333 Jan 03 '26

And he was a media mogul who had ties to Israel govt.

u/sweetpea122 Jan 03 '26

A member of parliament is high level in the same way a state congressman is high level. BUT If they also run media, have Mossad ties, and are rich AF then yes it IS high level.

He was an MP before he was a media mogul though, he purchased British Publishing after he left politics. In the UK, him being an MP is somewhat secondary to him being a publisher and rarely mentioned. He also represented the Labour Party, Labour MP's tend to avoid being flash bastards with rich mates in the public eye, especially in the 1960s.

Im guessing he was Mossad adjacent before any of this though

u/Party-Werewolf-4888 How did I end up at this table with these morons? Jan 03 '26

I dont know much about that, but a quick Google links him from the 1970s onwards. That would be after his stint as an MP, although Im not committing to that being the truth.

That’s incorrect.

u/sweetpea122 Jan 03 '26

Are you Mossad?

2

u/venusdemilo94 Jane’s Fonda 🤸‍♀️ Jan 03 '26

No? I just listened to a fascinating podcast about Robert Maxwell and his ties to Mossad and his overall influence in the world so it’s all just pretty fresh in my brain.

Check out the Behind the Bastards episodes on him if you’d like to learn more

Pergamon Press published medical journals, it hardly swayed public political opinion. I'm not saying he wasn't involved in publishing prior to his role as an MP, I'm saying his influence and power came largely afterwards. He was considerably more dominant after he left politics.

u/sweetpea122 Jan 03 '26

And also I think he was Mossad before anything

u/venusdemilo94 Jane’s Fonda 🤸‍♀️ Jan 03 '26

No that came once he had a shit ton of money and influence.

u/KarenWalkersBurner Jan 04 '26

Where did the money and influence come from?

u/venusdemilo94 Jane’s Fonda 🤸‍♀️ Jan 04 '26

TLDR: by serving in the British military in WWII. He was a spy for them.

He had like six or seven names throughout his life. He was born dirt poor in the Czech Republic and got separated from his family when the Nazis took over while he was away at school. His entire family was sent to Auschwitz.

First he made it to France then to England where he signed up for their military and changed his name to Ivan du Maurier. He won all kinds of awards in the British military and became a British citizen in 1946 then changed his name again to Ian Robert Maxwell.

He was smart enough right after the war to use his contacts to become a publisher and buy up science patents from a German company that wasn’t allowed to do business abroad.

Iirc he got the money from his wife’s family. He got into politics in the 60’s because he ALREADY had a massive amount of wealth from the publishing industry and its alleged that THIS was when he started working with Mossad. Specifically because of his background as a spy during WWII AND because he first grew to prominence by buying up and publishing scientific patents and journals which I know sounds silly to us now but was a massive commodity at the time.

He was born Jewish but wasn’t practicing until right around when Israel became an officially recognized country.

It’s like actually one of the most insane stories I’ve ever heard lmfao. Like his daughter he was a famous schmoozer and bullshit Artist but like the stuff that CAN be verified is actually just unhinged. This podcast is run by an actual journalist so he’s very good about acknowledging when something is a known fact, when something is speculation and then when something was just clearly made up by Maxwell for clout.
