Wasserman plans to divest talent agency amid Epstein controversy

Scrutiny has fallen on the notable agent and head of the LA Olympics due to their previous associations with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

American agent Casey Wasserman is expected to divest his talent company following the release of documents in the US that link him to Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell.

This week, several high-profile clients, including singer Chappell Roan, parted ways with Wasserman's firm after it was revealed that he had traveled on Epstein's private plane and exchanged emails with Maxwell in 2003.

According to US media reports, Wasserman informed his employees that he had become a "distraction" and announced his intention to sell the prominent LA-based agency.

The 51-year-old agent, who has also faced calls to step down as chair of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, had previously stated that he had no "personal or business relationship" with Epstein.

In a memo published on Friday, as reported by the Wall Street Journal, Wasserman expressed regret, stating, "I'm deeply sorry that my past personal mistakes have caused you so much discomfort."

He further acknowledged that his actions had impacted his colleagues and clients, saying, "It's not fair to you, and it's not fair to the clients and partners we represent so vigorously and care so deeply about."

Wasserman has expressed deep regret over his past interactions with Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for her role in facilitating the sexual abuse of teenage girls by Epstein.

He clarified that his email exchanges with Maxwell took place over two decades ago, prior to the discovery of her involvement in Epstein's crimes.

Although Wasserman's name appears in the documents related to Epstein, he has not been accused of any wrongdoing by Epstein's victims, and his inclusion in the files does not imply any criminal activity.

Earlier this week, the organizers of the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, LA28, announced that Wasserman would retain his position as chairman after a review of his past interactions with Maxwell.

The investigation found that Wasserman's relationship with Maxwell was limited to the previously documented email exchanges, and that he had fully cooperated with the inquiry.

In a statement, the LA28 board explained that Wasserman and his then-wife had flown on Epstein's plane to Africa in 2003 as part of a humanitarian mission organized by the Clinton Foundation.

The board noted that this trip took place before Wasserman or the public were aware of Epstein and Maxwell's crimes.

According to the statement, Wasserman's only interaction with Epstein was the aforementioned flight, after which he exchanged emails with Maxwell.

In recent days, several notable figures have severed ties with Wasserman's agency.

On Tuesday, singer Chappell Roan took to Instagram to announce that she would no longer be working with Wasserman.

Roan stated, "No artist, agent, or employee should ever be expected to defend or overlook actions that conflict so deeply with our own moral values."

While Roan's statement did not explicitly mention the documents related to Epstein, it conveyed her decision to part ways with Wasserman's agency.

Former US football player Abby Wambach also announced her departure from the agency, citing her values and intuition, saying, "I know what I know, and I am following my gut and values. I will not participate in any business arrangement under his leadership."
