GHISLAINE Maxwell will appear in court via video-link from the ‘hellhole’ jail where she is being held in New York.

She is being held at Brooklyn’s tough Metropolitan Detention Centre before she appears in court on Friday.

The 58-year-old is expected to be denied bail.

The arrested socialite has been charged with several offences relating to sex crimes with minors.

It is believed the former girlfriend of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein will be cooperative with FBI, which could see the likes of Donald Trump and Bill Clinton called into question.

This comes after sources say Prince Andrew is “agonising” over the arrest of socialite Ghislaine Maxwell and fears “making enemies”.

The Duke of York hasn’t commented since Maxwell was arrested and charged with grooming and trafficking underage girls for her then-boyfriend Jeffrey Epstein.
