Karyna Shuliak, a 37-year-old dentist from Belarus, was Jeffrey Epstein’s last partner. According to Department of Justice documents published by The New York Times, she could inherit up to $100 million from the convicted sex offender, who died in prison in 2019.
Relationship and will
Shuliak and Epstein had an eight-year relationship. They met when she was 21 and had just arrived in New York. Epstein called her his “favorite,” helping her get into Columbia Dental School and obtain permanent residency.
She managed his assets and was the last person Epstein called before he died. In a will signed on August 8, 2019, two days before his death, Epstein named her the primary beneficiary of his fortune, which included properties in Manhattan, Palm Beach, New Mexico, Paris, two private islands and a 33-carat diamond ring.
The trust and the victims
After Epstein’s death, the assets passed to the “1953 Trust”, a trust under judicial management. This fund has been used to pay compensation to victims of their crimes and cover legal expenses. Most of the properties have been sold or earmarked for compensation, so the final amount Shuliak will receive is still in the legal process.
