Maxwell’s Bestie Ariadne Calvo-Platero: What is it like to be lifelong best friends with convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell?
Speaker Jim Rohn once said: “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with”.
Today we are going to talk about Ghislaine Maxwell’s aristocratic best friend to get more insight into the jailed socialite.
So who is Ariadne Calvo-Platero?
Besides once sitting on the board of Ghislaine Maxwell’s do-nothing charity, Calvo-Platero shares a lot in common with her bestie:
1. Both their fathers were British politicians
2. The two were once working in publishing
3. They are both living in America
4. Their fathers ended up broke
The Honorable Ariadne Calvo Platero is the daughter of Timothy Wentworth Beaumont, Baron Beaumont of Whitley. Her mother was a cousin of Lord Snowden, who married the Queen’s sister, Princess Margaret.
The qualified social worker is married to journalist Mario Calvo Platero, former editor of the prestigious Italian newspaper Il Sole 24, as well a former British energy executive for several companies.
The couple has a mention in Epstein’s black book and both have associations with children’s charities, although there are no allegations of impropriety.
Ariadne Calvo-Platero – Tennis Girl
According to Page Six, Ariadne Calvo-Platero is part of an exclusive group of women in white known as “The Tennis Girls.”
The ensemble includes Perri Peltz, Peggy Siegal, Tory Burch, Cristina Cuomo, Jeanne Greenberg Rohatyn, Gigi Mortimer, Renee Rockefeller, Sara Ayres, Ariadne Calvo-Platero and Kitty Sherrill.
“They play on summer weekends at Peltz’s Southampton home (with their own handsome pro, Marko, “The Croatian Sensation.”) They even have a rule: “You break it, you buy it,” which means if you cause injury with an aggressive ball, you pay for the surgery.”

Ghislaine’s brother said some of Ghislaine’s friends were in fear of being “cancelled” due to their association with the jailed socialite. So is this why we did not see the social worker in the court during Maxwell’s trial?

Ian Maxwell told Insider of Ghislaine: “She deserves support and love and affection. And one of the reasons that this has not happened from third parties — or is so rare that it doesn’t really matter — is because of their fear of being canceled,
And opprobrium, and losing their jobs, and having their kids teased at school, and much, much worse.”

But it is Virginia Giuffre who is attracting most of her attention.
