Real estate mogul Frederick Rudd and his wife Kim are the new owners of Ghislaine Maxwell’s $15 million townhouse at 116 E. 65th St, Gimme Shelter has learned.

This is not the first time Rudd has purchased real estate from a, um, colorful and controversial character.

Maxwell, if you recall, is the daughter of the late disgraced press baron Robert Maxwell.

She is also known for her friendship with Prince Andrew and her convicted sex offender ex-boyfriend Jeffrey Epstein.

Maxwell gained notoriety for her alleged role as a “sex madam,” reportedly procuring underage girls for Epstein and other powerful men. (She has denied any wrongdoing.)

Her father died falling off his yacht, Lady Ghislaine. At the time, he had stolen massive amounts of money from his companies to pay for his extravagant lifestyle.

For his part, Rudd once purchased an $8.3 mansion at a public auction in Old Brookville on Long Island. The manse, which came with an indoor pool with a sliding roof, was owned by one Michael Pescatore, who ran the largest “chop shop” on the East Coast before his conviction.

“If the mansion embodied the American Dream to Pescatore, it came to represent a mockery of that dream for law enforcement officials,” the Village Voice’s Sean Gardiner wrote of the Nassau County mansion in 2007.
