Newly released “Epstein files” describe extensive communication between wellness author Deepak Chopra and Jeffrey Epstein, including emails, text messages and references to in-person meetings. The materials are framed as records of association and contact, not proof of criminal conduct and inclusion does not automatically imply legal liability.
The correspondence is described as spanning several years, particularly 2016 to 2019, with hundreds of messages that range from wellness and spirituality to travel and mutual acquaintances. Some exchanges are described as friendly and informal, including references to “girls” in social contexts and messages encouraging Epstein to bring “your girls” on trips, including to workshops.
Reporting also describes professional and financial intersections tied to the Deepak Chopra Epstein messages, including seeking feedback on a wellness app and a $50,000 cheque in 2017 from “Gratitude America,” described as linked to Epstein. That mix of personal, business and monetary touchpoints adds context as scrutiny shifts from tone to documented transactions.
Chopra has publicly said he condemns abuse, was never involved in exploitative conduct and that some emails reflect poor judgment in tone.
