Jerry O’Connell made a shocking revelation about how his wife once went to Jeffrey Epstein’s island during his comedy show.
During his comedy set, the 51–year–old actor recalled how his now–wife, model Rebecca Romijn, once visited the private island in the U.S. Virgin Islands for modeling work.
He explained that her visit to the infamous island owned by the disgraced financier was not for anything untoward.
He did a stand–up comedy set with Seth Herzog at Cynthia Rowley’s store in Montauk this past weekend and shared the Femme Fatale star’s story about her trip to the private island in the U.S. Virgin Islands, per Page Six.
He said that Romijn did not meet Epstein and the former model was just there for a photoshoot — which occurred sometime between Epstein purchasing the private island in 1998 and his death in 2019.
The incident seemingly occurred prior to the Hollywood couple, who recently revealed why still they have separate bank accounts after 18 years of marriage, getting together and having been married for nearly two decades.

‘Actually, my wife told me she went to Epstein Island. There was a modeling shoot there. My wife was modeling at the time.’
O’Connell said: ‘I’m so sorry, everyone. I know this is a comedy show, but that’s the end of that story. There was no massaging of feet.’

While Herzog was doing a comedic bit on the disgraced billionaire and his island, he also made jokes about the late cosmologist Stephen Hawking even going there — even though he was never accused of any sexual misconduct.
Epstein was an American financier and convicted sex offender who died in prison waiting for his sex trafficking trial.
He owned a small private island called Little Saint James in the United States Virgin Islands, southeast of Saint Thomas.
The private island is the site of a number of alleged crimes, notorious and colloquially known as Pedophile Island due to allegations of sex trafficking and abuse.
Accusers claimed that the billionaire’s private island was the center of an international sex trafficking ring and the base for his criminal enterprise.
A number of prominent names have been mentioned in court documents related to Epstein with the files being unsealed and released in stages since his death in 2019.

Many high-profile figures named in newly released US court documents detailing the connections of the sex offender and reveal the list of people who were known to have visited the infamous island, whether or not they were involved in the crimes or not.
O’Connell name-dropping his wife having been to the island for work unrelated to Epstein comes shortly after they revealed their secret to the success of their decades-long marriage.
The power couple appeared on Sirius XM’s Andy Cohen Live on Thursday as Romijn shockingly explained: ‘We keep our money completely separate.’
She did note that the longtime couple do share a ‘community pot’ for family expenses.
Romijn said: ‘That’s like one of the first conversations you have when you decide to enter into a legal agreement together.’
The two — who share 16–year–old twin daughters Dolly Rebecca Rose and Charlie Tamara Tulip — explained that they both contribute to this pot ‘quarterly.’
