Allegedly, the Kazakh-Russian model, who was just beginning her career, jumped from her ninth-floor balcony, according to NYPOST. Her ex-boyfriend, speaking to the publication, revealed that she had internal struggles and kept her problems "bottled up." Ruslana reportedly joined the ‘extreme self-help group’ in Russia, days before her death.
Just a few weeks prior to Epstein's 2006 arrest and subsequent conviction for having sex with minors, Korshunova paid a visit to the financier's controversial island. The plane used for these trips was called the Lolita Express and was reportedly used to transport young girls to the island with wealthy and influential men.
Virginia Giuffre on Ruslana Korshunova’s death
Virginia Giuffre, one of the victims of the island and the most outspoken among them, also accusing Prince Andrew, was asked about Ruslana Korshunova's death. She was questioned if she had any knowledge of the model. Back in 2011, Ruslana’s then-PR manager over email asked, “I think it's a long shot you would recognize her, but read the article I attached and then look at the pictures and see if you recognize her.”
“I am so sorry to hear the news of Ruslana, and my condolences are with her family and friends,” she continued “I can say that I have never had any meetings with her, sorry not to be of any help there.”
Later it was revealed that the model left a message for her family and friends stating how much she missed home and citing problems in her love life.
