JEFFREY Epstein "didn't seem suicidal" when he called his dentist girlfriend before he took his own life in jail, reports claim.

Karyna Shuliak was the last person to speak with Epstein in a recorded phone call from Metropolitan Correctional Center before he hanged himself in his cell in August 2019, reports say.

In newly uncovered images, Epstein's 30-something lover can be seen wearing a white puffy jacket after leaving his $75 million New York City mansion as far back as 2015.

The New York Daily News reports that Shuliak had a dentist practice registered in the Virgin Islands where the foundation that owned Epstein’s jet was located.

She also enjoyed a glamorous trip to Paris with the notorious pervert before he returned to the US, where he was arrested at Teterboro Airport in July 2019, the Epstein source told the publication.

Shuliak was supposedly Epstein’s girlfriend for four or five years but she didn't want to speak a Southern District of New York prosecutor about their final chat which occurred hours before his death.

In a legal filing on Thursday lawyer Brad Edwards said he wants to talk to anyone who spokes with Epstein:  "Anyone that he spoke to during that month he was in custody is going to be relevant to why he committed suicide."

Unlike the slew of Epstein victims, Shuliak believed the millionaire loved her and the publication reports she was in Belarus at the time of his death and devastated by the loss of the pedophile financier.

The insider also revealed Shuliak was never exposed to Epsetin's shadowy sex trafficking dealings because he was adept at compartmentalizing different aspects of his life.

Although officials ruled it a death by hanging, a source told the Daily News when Shuliak "hung up the phone she was not under the impression Epstein was suicidal,” the night before he died.

This reflects the statements made by Epstein attorney Reid Weingarten, who previously told a Manhattan court his legal team "did not see a despairing, despondent, suicidal person."

Records indicate Shuliak was married an alleged Epstein victim – and US citizen – in 2013 before their divorce came through last year.

But another suit filed by a second Epstein victim claims he made her enter a sham marriage to a non- American victim in the country – and sources say Shuliak's marriage was similar without any lawsuits.

Sigrid McCawley, an attorney representing Epstein victims, said “Jeffrey Epstein’s international sex trafficking ring harmed an incomprehensible number of girls."

"These sham same-sex marriages served a basic and important purpose for Epstein’s trafficking operation," McCawley said.

"They enabled Epstein to get citizenship for girls that he wanted to keep in this country without facing a high level of scrutiny in the citizenship process."

The pictures of Shuliak came to light after it emerged her boyfriend had installed a ten-person shower for orgies on his Caribbean island and filled the walls of the bathroom with pictures of naked girls.

Steve Scully, 70, who maintained the phone lines and internet on Little St James, also told The Sun On Sunday how the billionaire would shuttle in topless girls by helicopter.

Last month, a top pathologist claimed there is evidence the shamed pedo Epstein was probably murdered and did not hang himself in his prison cell.

New York City’s former chief medical examiner Dr Michael Baden points to burst capillaries in the fiend's eyes as a big clue to him being manually strangled.

His interpretation backs up claims from Epstein's estate that he was murdered behind bars.

It also comes after conspiracy theorists claimed he was assassinated to stop him linking his famous and wealthy friends to his sickening crimes.

Some of Epstein's victims have also said they believe he was killed.

During his autopsy, Epstein was found to have broken his hyoid bone, which is near the Adam's apple in men, according to the Washington Post.

Although hyoid breaks can occur during a hanging, experts told the paper the fracture is more common in strangulation victims, which would echo Shuliak's reported belief that he wasn't suicidal in that final call.

Law enforcement officials confirmed on August 10 he had taken his own life at the Metropolitan Correctional Center, which is where he had been held pending a trial on child sex-trafficking charges.
