Les Wexner, the billionaire founder of L Brands and Victoria’s Secret, has alleged that Jeffrey Epstein stole millions of dollars from him while serving as his personal money manager. Wexner gave Epstein sweeping power of attorney in the early 1990s, allowing him control over financial and real estate transactions. When Wexner severed ties with him in 2007, he said he discovered that Epstein had misappropriated a significant amount of money, with at least $46 million identified as funds taken without authorization. Wexner claimed that some of this money was supposed to support his charitable foundation but was instead diverted by Epstein.

Despite the large sum, Wexner has never disclosed the full extent of what was allegedly stolen, nor has he clarified why Epstein was granted such unchecked financial authority. Reports suggest that Epstein’s control over Wexner’s finances allowed him to access charitable funds and move money with little oversight. Wexner has publicly insisted that he was one of Epstein’s victims, but critics have pointed out that he has never fully explained how such theft went unnoticed for years or whether authorities were ever asked to investigate the alleged financial misconduct.
