Who is the woman Epstein left a diamond ring 'in contemplation of marriage'?

The estate's final value is uncertain because money has already been paid to many of Epstein's victims. It is now estimated to be worth between $120 million and $200 million. Jeffrey Epstein was a convicted sex offender who died by suicide in a New York jail in August 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex-trafficking charges. Dr. Shuliak was reportedly the last person Epstein called before his death in jail in 2019.

Epstein files reveal relationshipAt the time the files became public, Dr. Shuliak was quietly working as a part-time dentist in Downtown Brooklyn, and many patients did not know about her past connection to Epstein. Her identity became widely known after the US Justice Department released around three million pages of investigative files and emails related to Epstein, according to The New York Times. The released records included thousands of emails exchanged between Epstein and Dr. Shuliak, along with dozens of photographs showing them together.

The emails showed details of their nearly eight-year relationship, including personal conversations about their relationship, health issues and intimate matters. The records show Epstein often referred to Dr. Shuliak as his "favorite" and frequently told her he loved her. The emails also show Epstein gave her access to a credit card, paid nearly $1 million to her over the years and also sent tens of thousands of dollars to her parents in Belarus.
