Former President Donald Trump claims his falling out with the late financier Jeffrey Epstein stemmed from a personal dispute — not Epstein’s later criminal charges. According to Trump, the break occurred after Epstein allegedly tried to “poach” staff from Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort spa.
Trump reiterated he “was not a fan” of Epstein and distanced himself from the disgraced figure, who faced serious allegations of sex trafficking before his 2019 death. The comment comes as renewed public and legal scrutiny surrounds Epstein’s network and relationships.
