Caroline Kaufman claims ‘creepy’ Ex-Prince Andrew ‘brushed’ her chest at Epstein’s party
Caroline Kaufman, now 32, has alleged that she attended a gathering at Jeffrey Epstein’s Upper East Side mansion in December 2010 after being told it would involve a modeling opportunity. According to Kaufman, she initially believed she had been invited to take part in a photoshoot. However, she said that when she arrived, the event appeared to be a large private party.
Kaufman claimed the atmosphere inside the mansion felt “seedy.” She alleged that dozens of young women were gathered in a large room and instructed to wear similar black dresses. Speaking with The Sun, she said the women appeared to be positioned in a way that felt like a presentation. “Everyone was given the same type of dress,” she said, adding that she believed the setup was intended to please visiting guests.
Per Kaufman’s account, former Prince Andrew entered the room wearing a tuxedo and greeted some of the women. She alleged that during their brief interaction, his hand “brushed” against her chest. Kaufman claimed he asked her age during the exchange and that when she told him she was 17, he appeared to pull back.
“He didn’t say he was Prince Andrew or ask my name,” she alleged. Kaufman added that she only later realized who he was after hearing other guests mention him. “You could tell Andrew felt like he was a king,” Kaufman said. “I just wanted to get out of there. It was creepy.”
She further claimed that the environment felt like a “meat market.” “It felt like all these girls were there for him to choose from,” she said. Kaufman added that she was taken from the main gathering area after roughly 40 minutes.
