International child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell gave an exclusive interview to The Sun, published Saturday, where she detailed her close friendships with a number of people, including Prince Andrew and former Presidents Donald Trump and Bill Clinton.

Maxwell told the outlet that she knew her friendship with Prince Andrew “could not survive” her conviction and 20-year sentence for child sex trafficking in June after the death of fellow child trafficker and sex abuser Jeffrey Epstein, she told The Sun. “He is paying such a price for the association. I consider him a dear friend. I care about it,” she continued.

Another relationship the convict says she valued was with Clinton. “It was a special friendship, which continued over the years,” Maxwell told the outlet. “We had lots in common. I feel bad that he is another victim, only because of his association with Jeffrey. I understand he, like others, can no longer consider me as a friend.”

Clinton took a significant number of trips on Epstein’s plane, the “Lolita Express,” according to records obtained by Fox News. Records suggest that Clinton took at least 26 trips on the private jet, and even ditched his Secret Service for at least five of those. Photographs of Epstein, Maxwell, and Clinton on the plane, taken around 2002, surfaced in early January 2020. You can find them here.

Along with the loss of her relationships with Clinton and Prince Andrew, Maxwell said that she was “honoured” that Trump even “remembered” her. “We knew each other and mingled in the same circles, in New York, Palm Beach. I was very grateful when he wished me well after (the arrest). He got bad media for it, but he dared, while others didn’t,” Maxwell told the outlet.

The interview was conducted as part of an up-coming CBS-Paramount Plus special, The Sun noted. The outlet did not state when the full commentary from Maxwell would be released.
