Jeffrey Epstein’s 2010 Email: “Our ..Soon Princess Sofia” Hellqvist

Below is an email with a forwarded or screenshot from February 7, 2010 (Sun, 07 Feb 2010), sent from someone (signature “BE”, likely Barbro Ehnbom, a Swedish businesswoman) to Jeffrey Epstein at an address like JEEVACATION@gmail.com.

The message greets “Hi Jeffrey” and asks where he is and when he’ll return to town. It attaches/shares a photo of “our Sofia” (described as “i.e. soon Princess Sofia”), noting that the whole Swedish press is looking for her while she’s in Africa.

The photo shows a woman (Sofia) lying on her stomach on what looks like a rooftop or terrace by the sea, in a red dress, with a laptop, water bottles, and a scenic ocean/sky background. The sender signs off casually with “Take care – Saints will… Africa.! BE” (partially cut off, possibly referencing New Orleans Saints or something similar).

It’s informal, familiar, and references Sofia Hellqvist (who later became Princess Sofia of Sweden in 2015 after marrying Prince Carl Philip) in a proprietary way (“our Sofia”) and speculates on her future royal status.

Is this Epstein File real?

Yes, this email and the associated photo are real and come from documents unsealed/released in connection with Jeffrey Epstein’s case (likely from recent batches in late 2025 or early 2026).Multiple credible sources, including Swedish newspapers (Dagens Nyheter, Expressen), international outlets (People, Fox News, Newsweek, Anadolu Agency), and discussions on platforms like Reddit and X, reference this exact or very similar 2010 email and photo sent by Barbro Ehnbom to Epstein.Key points from reports:

• Barbro Ehnbom (a mentor/networker for young women, who attended Sofia’s wedding) sent Epstein photos and updates about Sofia over the years.
  
• Earlier emails (from ~2005) show Ehnbom introducing Sofia (then an aspiring model/actress in New York) to Epstein, with Epstein offering to fly her to his Caribbean island (which Sofia reportedly declined; the Swedish Royal Court states no island visit and no contact after ~2005).
  
• The 2010 email with this beach photo fits the pattern of Ehnbom sharing updates about Sofia.
  
• The Swedish Royal Court has confirmed limited meetings with Epstein around 2005, no ongoing contact for 20+ years, and no wrongdoing by Sofia. She’s described in some contexts as a potential/possible victim in Epstein’s network rather than participant.

No major sources treat this as fabricated; it’s part of the publicly released Epstein files. The phrasing matches exactly what’s quoted in reports (“our Sofia… i.e. soon Princess Sofia… the whole Swedish press is looking for her… while she is in Africa”).
