Newly released pictures contained within the Epstein files show Ghislaine Maxwell posing alongside Bill Clinton and actor Kevin Spacey inside Winston Churchill’s War Rooms.
The extraordinary photos likely date back to 2002, when the trio famously visited London for former president Clinton to address the the Labour Party conference.
At the time, Spacey was a highly respected Hollywood actor, Clinton had recently finished his second term as president and Maxwell was a prominent socialite with links to Prince Andrew and A-listers around the world.
More than 23 years on, those pictures form part of a highly sought after data dump related to the crimes of disgraced billionaire Jeffrey Epstein.
President Donald Trump‘s administration was ordered to release the files by Friday following widespread anger and backlash from rusted-on MAGA supporters and critics alike.
One of the images shows the trio beaming as they stand shoulder to shoulder, along with three other men, in the famed War Rooms where Churchill directed the British response to the Second World War.
The rooms are located beneath the Treasury building in Westminster and are a tourist hotspot today. They were opened to the public in April 1984.
During that same trip, the group were reportedly invited to tour Buckingham Palace, with an invitation from the Duke of York.

In 2020, The Telegraph published a shocking picture of Maxwell and Spacey lounging on thrones belonging to the Queen and Prince Philip.
The throne Maxwell was seated on was the same one the Queen used for her Coronation in 1953 – a breach of palace protocol.
The pictures of Maxwell, Clinton and Spacey are the latest showing the depth of Clinton’s friendship with Epstein’s right-hand woman, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for her involvement in the disgraced financier’s crimes.
Epstein died by suicide while awaiting trial.
Clinton was seen lazing about in a pool with Maxwell in one picture, and seen in another with Epstein himself where both men were wearing satin shirts with loud patterns.
Epstein was also seen with Michael Jackson in an undated photograph. The late King of Pop was also seen with Clinton, though it was unclear if this was a different occasion.
The release was intended to comply with a law overwhelmingly passed by Congress in November that mandated the disclosure of all Epstein files, despite the Republican president’s months-long effort to keep them sealed.
Trump for years had promoted conspiracy theories about Epstein, but the case has turned into a political liability for him since his return to the White House in January.

Britain’s disgraced former royal Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor also appeared in the material, along with his former wife Sarah Ferguson.
References to Trump are limited in the documents, and he has never been accused of wrongdoing in connection with the case.
The Department of Justice acknowledged that not all of the documents have yet been released, and said additional material is expected to be unsealed before the end of the year.
The DOJ did not provide any context for the images of people included in the files.
Being named or pictured in the files is not necessarily an indication of wrongdoing with Epstein.
The Department of Justice has redacted entire documents in some cases, with more than a dozen politically exposed and high profile names reportedly blacked out, enraging the general public who had been waiting for new revelations about Epstein and his connections with society’s elite.
One of the stipulations was that nothing could be withheld solely because it ’embarrassed’ a government official or public figure.
