Fugitive Ghislaine Maxwell is reportedly hiding out in a luxury flat close to billionaire Jeffrey Epstein‘s £7million Paris apartment.
The socialite has apparently escaped to her native France as the FBI continues to investigate links between her and convicted paedophile Epstein, as reported by The Sun.
Maxwell has rarely been seen in public since 2016 and rumours have circulated frequently since then on her whereabouts.
She is now understood to have moved into a flat on on Avenue Matignon, in Paris’s 8th Arrondissement, a wealthy part of the city dotted with upmarket retail shops.

A source told the newspaper: ‘Ghislaine is moving locations every month to keep private investigators off her tail and is staying at the residences of trusted colleagues and contacts.
‘She wants to remain in France for as long as she can to take advantage of extradition laws and has a huge network of contacts willing to keep her hidden.
‘Under French law anyone born on French soil is safe from extradition to another country, regardless of the alleged crime.

‘It doesn’t mean she won’t be prosecuted for her links to Epstein but if she does end up facing charges it will be in France and not the US.’ Maxwell has denied any wrongdoing.
There have been other claims that she was spotted walking away from the Israeli embassy, which is only a short distance away from where she is currently thought to be staying.
Ghislaine Maxwell first met Epstein in the 1990s and they struck up a relationship.
Not even Maxwell’s lawyers are certain of her current location as she only communicates with them via email.
A resident in France claims to her seen her out and about before the country went into lockdown to control the coronavirus pandemic.
They said: ‘She rarely went out, but when she did she wore a large patterned blanket which she pulled tightly around her face and draped across her shoulders.
