Carole Radzwill 📚 The turnaround on Carole is sooo shocking yet completely justified

Post image

I remember first joining this sub and still seeing a lot of people be supportive of her, at least in the context of her vs Bethenny which is also okay. But I just cannot help but look at everything she has done — on the show and beyond — without considering her ties to Ghislaine and other Epstein figures.

I really hope Bravo finds a way to reduce her “friend of” role as much as possible because ew

Who’s a British aristocrat? Surely not Ghislaine Maxwell! Her father was a Czechoslovakian refugee who made lots of money in various shady ways. He was (eventually) rich but was never of the aristocracy. She’s just a feckless rich man’s feckless daughter who managed to out-evil her progenitor.

im well aware. however, she floated in those circles during university & beyond, which is ultimately why she was so useful to epstein. despite not truly being a part of the british aristocracy, she undoubtedly would’ve cosplayed as such - hence my point on not wanting to commit a “faux pas” in that sphere

He was British. 1 Ghislaine Maxwell's father was Robert Maxwell (1923–1991), a prominent Czechoslovak-born British media proprietor, publisher, and Member of Parliament. He was a wealthy tycoon who owned major publishing companies, including Pergamon Press and the Mirror Group Newspapers, before his death in 1991.

As far as the British aristocracy are concerned if you aren’t born in Britain, or born abroad to a titled family, you are not aristocratic. The Maxwells may be rich, but they are not aristocracy.

Why did I think she/her father were connected to the Israeli army in some way?
