The Epstein Files have shocked the world. Many celebrities, politicians, and even royals have been revealed in the files. Now, a new picture shows that even the late Professor Stephen Hawking was involved, as he’s pictured with two women in bikinis.

The Epstein files, which have partly been released by the Department of Justice under President Donald Trump, have exposed the horrors and scale of what has been ongoing for years, all connected to the late convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.

Celebrities, royals, and politicians from around the world have been exposed in the released files; however, it’s important to stress that just because a person’s name appears, it doesn’t make them guilty of a crime.

Still, the files don’t only include emails and flight logs. Thousands and thousands of pictures from the Epstein estate have been released. Now, one photo has become one headline, and it involves the late Professor Stephen Hawking.

Hawking, who died in 2018, was widely admired as one of the greatest scientists of his generation. The photo of him that appeared in the recent release of the Epstein files shows the scientist relaxing next to two women in bikinis. He is lying on a sun lounger, holding a cocktail, smiling.

Where and when the picture was taken is not known. Also, the identities of the two women in the picture have been redacted.

Stephen Hawking’s name appears hundreds of times in the Epstein files. Still, once again, it’s important to stress that being mentioned or appearing in the files does not mean he did anything illegal.

It’s known that Hawking visited the US. Virgin Islands, in March 2006, with a group of scientists, where he attended a five‑day scientific conference. It was funded by Jeffrey Epstein.

In the Epstein files, images of Hawking at events on Epstein’s private island, Little Saint James, have also been revealed.

For example, one shows the scientist at a barbecue, and another shows him in a submarine that was reportedly modified so he could go on a tour under the sea, despite being in a wheelchair.

Claims against Hawking
Moreover, per The Sun, documents also include an email from 2015 from Epstein to his associate Ghislaine Maxwell, which mentions Hawking and suggests offering a reward to anyone who could disprove certain allegations. The email said: “You can issue a reward to any of Virginia’s friends… that help prove her allegations are false. The strongest is… that Stephen Hawking participated in an underage orgy.”

The “Virginia” who is mentioned is the victim, Virginia Giuffre, who tragically committed suicide last year. Although Virginia Giuffre made those allegations about others in the Epstein case, it’s important to underline that she never directly accused Hawking of any crime. Also, there is no evidence that he was involved in any wrongdoing.
