Jeffrey Epstein’s $630M Heirs: Document Reveals 43 and a Planned Marriage
After Jeffrey Epstein’s controversial life, new revelations have come to light concerning his estate plan and intended heirs, particularly focused on a document known as The 1953 Trust. This document, unveiled following the Epstein Files Transparency Act, details how Epstein intended to allocate his significant assets worth approximately $630 million upon his death.
Key Assets and Intended Heirs of Epstein
Epstein’s estate planning included several major beneficiaries. Notably:
- Karyna Shuliak: Epstein’s then-girlfriend, received a 32.73-carat diamond ring and was set to inherit $100 million, along with multiple properties.
- Celina Dubin: The eldest daughter of Epstein’s former girlfriend, was initially slated to inherit significant assets, including Epstein’s Zorro Ranch.
- Darren Indyke and Richard Kahn: Epstein’s long-time lawyer and accountant were named as major beneficiaries, slated to receive $50 million and $25 million, respectively.
The 1953 Trust Details
Created on August 8, 2019, shortly before Epstein’s death, The 1953 Trust was designed to be a “pour-over trust.” This meant it would only distribute Epstein’s assets once his estate matters were resolved, which is currently ongoing amidst litigation. As of September 2025, the estate reportedly had about $127 million in assets remaining.
Changes from Previous Trusts
The 1953 Trust replaced an earlier document known as the Jeffrey E. Epstein 2019 Trust, which had listed 32 bequests amounting to nearly $225 million. In contrast, the new trust outlines 43 bequests totaling over $330 million. Shuliak was identified as the top beneficiary, receiving immediate and deferred payments as well as Epstein’s properties.
Controversial Connections and Public Reactions
Despite the close affiliations of many listed in the trusts with Epstein, no allegations of wrongdoing against them were found in the trust documents. For instance, Eva Andersson Dubin, another former girlfriend, was named as a backup trustee but has publicly condemned Epstein’s actions. A family representative has indicated they were unaware of the extent of Epstein’s conduct.
Notably, British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell, convicted for her role in Epstein’s offenses, was also designated a $10 million beneficiary under The 1953 Trust, a stark contrast to earlier documents where her name was absent.
Financial Disbursements and Victim Compensation
The estate has so far compensated over 100 victims with payments totaling $125 million. It faces hefty liabilities including taxes, legal fees, and settlements. Furthermore, no funds will be given to any beneficiary until all estate creditors are satisfied, underscoring the ongoing complexities of Epstein’s financial legacy.
Conclusion
The intricate web of beneficiaries and trusts constructed by Jeffrey Epstein reveals much about his relationships and financial dealings. While The 1953 Trust represents a final act of financial planning, the implications of these documents continue to unfold amid ongoing discussions about accountability and justice for victims.
