A stunned TODAY studio fell silent as Anouska De Georgiou’s voice trembled on the December 18, 2025, broadcast, recounting her descent into Jeffrey Epstein’s world—a teenage model lured by promises of glamour, trapped in years of sexual abuse across his Caribbean island, New York mansion, and Paris home.

De Georgiou, a British actress and model recruited at 18 in 1999 by Ghislaine Maxwell, sat opposite Hoda Kotb and Savannah Guthrie, eyes glistening but resolute. “Maxwell promised modeling, introductions to powerful people,” she said, voice wavering. “It started with compliments, then ‘massages’ for Epstein. On the island, in New York, Paris—he assaulted me repeatedly, Maxwell often present, directing. I was trapped—threats, money, fear of no one believing a girl like me.”
She described Little Saint James as “paradise turned prison,” Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse as “cold luxury hiding horror,” and Paris visits as “glamour masking control.” “Years of it—until I escaped,” she whispered, trembling. “I stayed silent too long, thinking no one would listen.”
The interview, amid Epstein Files Transparency Act disclosures (completed December 19, no bombshells), amplified Giuffre’s Nobody’s Girl (October 21, 2025). De Georgiou praised Giuffre: “She named Andrew, fought until April 25. Her truth gave me courage.”
The studio hushed; Kotb wiped tears. The segment, viewed millions, trended #AnouskaSpeaks with 3.8 million posts (82% supportive). De Georgiou’s trembling defiance—raw, unbroken—ensured Epstein’s horrors, once buried in glamour, now faced unforgiving light.
