Indian-born American author and alternative-medicine advocate, physician and public speaker
Deepak Chopra maintained a direct, personal correspondence with Jeffrey Epstein from at least 2016 through 2018, exchanging emails about social plans, philosophy, politics, and—most controversially—remarks about 'cute girls' that drew widespread public scrutiny when the documents were released.
Chopra appears extensively in personal emails sent directly to Epstein's email address ([email protected]), discussing meeting plans, sharing articles, and making social arrangements. The correspondence shows a familiar, ongoing relationship—Chopra shares his home address in Carlsbad, CA, references filming with Al Gore, forwards Harvard Medical School newsletters, and discusses figures like Donald Trump. Several emails reference scheduling in-person meetings, and event materials show Chopra promoted his 'Restore' wellness event in 2018. Separate informal references mention Chopra in the context of social gatherings near Trump's hotel.
Key Highlights
- •Over a dozen personal emails between Chopra and Epstein from 2016–2018 show a familiar, ongoing relationship—not casual acquaintances
- •Chopra emailed Epstein about scheduling meetings (e.g., 'just stick to Sept 18th meet'), shared his personal Carlsbad address, and discussed plans involving Al Gore and other high-profile figures
- •In a widely reported March 2017 exchange, Chopra wrote 'God is a construct. Cute girls are real' to Epstein, and separately asked if Epstein had found him 'a cute Israeli'
- •Chopra attended intimate dinner parties at Epstein's New York residence alongside Woody Allen, describing them as 'a blast'
- •Chopra quoted a Roman poet to Epstein—'Nothing human is foreign to me'—in a July 2016 email, suggesting philosophical discussions were a regular feature of their exchanges
