For years, major outlets framed Ghislaine Maxwell with euphemisms like “British socialite” or “heiress,” softening the reality of what she actually did. This language wasn’t neutral—it was protective, creating a veneer of glamour and legitimacy around a woman who was actively grooming, recruiting, and enabling the sexual abuse of minors for Jeffrey Epstein. Survivors have long argued that this framing distorted the public’s understanding of the crimes and allowed Maxwell to maintain an image of sophistication instead of infamy. Calling her a “socialite” isn’t just inaccurate; it’s complicit in minimizing the suffering of her victims.
It’s long past time to strip away that veneer and call Maxwell exactly what she is: a human trafficker. She was convicted in a court of law for sex trafficking and conspiracy to entice minors—crimes that destroyed countless lives. Continuing to use titles like “socialite” or “heiress” plays into the same elite-friendly narrative that let Epstein operate for decades. Words matter. Framing matters. And in this case, the only framing that honors the truth and the victims is the one that calls her by her real identity: a convicted human trafficker, not a jet-setting socialite.
