This photo did not age well.
Stephen Hawking popping up in the Epstein files, grinning between two bikini models holding cocktails, and yeah, the vibes are uncomfortably suspicious in hindsight.
Nobody knows exactly when or where it was taken, but there’s a very ugly… https://t.co/T5hDriNV33 pic.twitter.com/tQCRfY8DD9

The photograph showing the noted astrophysicist with two women was released with millions of documents by the US Department of Justice relating to Jeffrey Epstein
Professor Stephen Hawking has been pictured reclining with two bikini-clad women in a newly uncovered photo included in the Epstein files.
The ground-breaking British astrophysicist and cosmologist, who died in 2018 aged 76, can be seen grinning in the picture released along with the millions of documents relating to paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein by the US Department of Justice this month. No detail is provided on the date or location of the image, though many that appear alongside it appear to have been taken on Epstein’s Little Saint James Island in the US Virgin Islands.
Hawking is already known to have visited Epstein’s private island in March 2006 as one of 21 prominent scientists attending a five-day physics conference focused on gravity.
