Video Shows Fake Ghislaine Maxwell Sighting
|
7.1
In February 2026, Snopes investigated a viral video that appeared to show Ghislaine Maxwell walking in Quebec, Canada, but found it was a face-swap deepfake. The Instagram user who posted the clip reportedly admitted to using AI face-swap tools, and visual discrepancies (notably mismatched teeth) contradicted Maxwell's known appearance. The finding reinforces the need for verification amid viral misinformation.
