Social Media Posts Spread False Claim About Fauci's Wife
By Caitlin Quinn
Posted on July 10, 2020
Quick Take
Social media posts falsely claim that Ghislaine Maxwell, the associate of convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, is the sister of Dr. Christine Grady, Dr. Anthony Faucis wife. Maxwell and Grady are not siblings.
British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell was arrested July 2 in New Hampshire on multiple charges related to the sexual abuse of girls and young women by the late financier Jeffrey Epstein. The announcement of Maxwells arrest was quickly followed by various rumors on social media, including the bogus claim she has contracted COVID-19, as we reported.
A social media post on Facebook now falsely claims that Maxwell is the sister of Dr. Christine Grady, the wife of Dr. Anthony Fauci. Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and a prominent figure during the coronavirus pandemic, has been the target of fake claims himself, as public backlash to COVID-19 mitigation measures has grown.
The Facebook post shows a photo of Fauci and Grady with the caption: Dr Fauci is married to Ghislaine Maxwells sister. Another post claims: Dr. Anthony Fauci is married to Ghislaine Maxwell sister who changed her name from Christine Maxwell to Christine Grady[.] There Are No Coincedences.

that can make the guy you're mad at at the moment look bad.
