The newly unsealed Department of Justice Epstein-related files are casting fresh scrutiny on Jeffrey Epstein’s long-standing connection to the family of his former girlfriend, Eva Dubin. The emails revealed unsettling details about his fixation on Dubin’s daughter, Celina Dubin, whom he described as a “goddaughter”, and the nature of their relationship over the years. The files outlined how the predator remained closely involved in Celina’s life and allegedly told his associates he wanted to marry her when she was still a teenager.

Eva dated Epstein for over a decade, from the early 1980s to the early 1990s, before marrying billionaire investor Glenn Dubin. Over time, the connection deepened into what records described as an exceptionally close bond. Emails cited in the files showed the teenager referring to Epstein as “Uncle F,” while Epstein described her as his “most favorite person in the whole world.” Image credits: Rob Kim/Getty Images The two reportedly exchanged hundreds of messages, discussing school and shopping, with Epstein at times offering to buy clothes and connect her to professional contacts. “Anything!! You know what I like, I also need some cool but also flattering and somewhat s*xy (ish) shirts that I can wear when I go out at night,” she wrote. “100%,” Epstein replied.

Should I get in touch with Jean Luc or Faith Kates?” Celina wrote in 2011. “Whatever you want. Jean Luc better,” Epstein replied. In 2012, Epstein contacted Jean-Luc Brunel to organize a photo shoot for Celina. The most disturbing revelations involved Epstein admitting wanting to marry Celina when she was 19 years old Image credits: Taylor Hill/Getty Images One of the most disturbing revelations involved Epstein telling his associates that Celina was the only person he wanted to marry. A source claimed to Business Insider that his intent was tied to financial inheritance planning. Though Celina was unaware of her inclusion as a contingent beneficiary in one of his trusts, she immediately removed herself once informed in 2020. The Dubins’ family spokesperson later described the remark as an “offhand comment,” noting there was no indication of a romantic relationship. “There is no justification for dragging Celina into a public controversy she had nothing to do with.” Besides marrying revelation, the documents also detailed moments that sparked intense online criticism Image credits: Roy Rochlin/Getty Images Image credits: JulieHammack619 Image credits: Cassand80312376 The documents also cited Eva Dubin inviting Epstein to her home in Colorado while Celina hosted friends. In one 2010 email, she wrote, “Come and visit next week. Celina will have 5 friends over.” Her friends included four boys and one girl. Her invitation came two years after the financier was convicted of soliciting and procuring a minor for pr*stitution.

He watched the game from the sidelines alongside Celina’s parents. After he attended the game, additional exchanges between him and Celina showed friendly conversations. “It was great fun, my first game,” Epstein wrote to Celina. Image credits: DoJ “I wish you could have come to a game where I played offense, but I’m glad you enjoyed it!!!!” Celina wrote back in an online chat. These revelations triggered a sharp public reaction, with many users questioning why he remained welcome after his conviction. “This is why parents don’t let their kids go to sleepovers… and this was their mother,” one commenter wrote, while another added, “No normal adult would ever make such a call or invite.” Following the criticism, the Dubin family strongly pushed back against the implications of wrongdoing Image credits: LibertyNewz Image credits: farahadams The Dubin family pushed back against the implications of wrongdoing, stating that Eva was unaware of Epstein’s criminal behavior. “As she has long stated, Dr. Eva Dubin was horrified by the unspeakable acts committed by Mr. Epstein,” the family spokesperson told The Post in a statement.  “She is deeply pained that her friendship with him has dragged her children into the public eye, through no fault of their own.” “Dr. Dubin never witnessed, nor was she aware of, Epstein’s conduct. Had she known, she would have severed all ties immediately and never allowed him near her children,” the statement concluded.

However, the Dubin family strongly denied that such outreach played any role in her admission. Image credits: DoJ Image credits: DoJ “The suggestion that she got into Harvard because of an email from Epstein to a math professor is a gratuitous and offensive undermining of a young woman’s significant accomplishments,” the spokesperson said. Celina graduated Magna c*m laude from Harvard in 2017 with a BA in psychology, Global Health, and Health Policy. She received her medical degree from the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. The 30-year-old is now a resident physician at Mount Sinai, as per her LinkedIn.

New Files Reveal Disturbing Details About ‘Uncle’ Epstein’s Obsession With Ex-Girlfriend’s Daughter Reviewed by New Viral Feed on 12:53 Rating: 5

For many of us, our pets are part of the family. They get to ride in our cars, sleep on our beds, and, in some instances, even accompany us to work. And who can resist those puppy dog eyes when they beg for a morsel of mom’s meatloaf at the family table? One digital community posts pics of pets looking lovingly at their human’s food in the hopes of getting a scrap and, with 27K members, we’d say the theme is pretty popular. So, without further ado, here’s a collection of our favorites.

From table scraps to specialized diets, the history of pet food reflects our growing understanding of animal nutrition and the deepening bond between people and their pets. #4 My Best Buddy, Bo, Who Was Laid To Rest Last Night, Loved His Birthday Steaks © Photo: User #5 I'm Prepared This Time © Photo: User #6 He Didn’t Get Any Of Our Food, And He Is Being Really Dramatic About It © Photo: haugisen In ancient times, domesticated animals like dogs and cats primarily subsisted on leftovers from human meals or even hunted their own food. This practice continued for centuries, with little distinction between human and animal diets. Pets were often fed raw meat, bones, and kitchen scraps, reflecting a utilitarian approach to animal care.  The mid-19th century marked a significant turning point in pet nutrition, though. In the 1860s, James Spratt, an American entrepreneur, observed stray dogs in England scavenging for food. Seeing a gap in the market, he developed the first commercial dog biscuit, known as "Spratt's Patent Meat Fibrine Dog Cakes." These biscuits combined wheat meals, vegetables, beetroot, and beef blood, and were a convenient alternative. #7 Willow Has Her Sights Set On Pizza © Photo: User #8 Nothing Is Safe From Loki © Photo: Prestigious_Paper_18 #9 We Didn't Let Him Eat A Steak © Photo: plasatar Following Spratt's success, other companies got in on the game. In the early 20th century, canned pet foods arrived, primarily using horse meat, which was abundant and inexpensive. In 1922, the Chappel Brothers introduced "Ken-L Ration," a canned dog food made which gained widespread popularity. This period also saw the introduction of commercial cat foods, as more households began keeping kitties as indoor pets. As the pet food industry grew, so too grew the need for regulation. In 1909, the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO) was established to oversee animal feed quality and safety. By 1917, they’d included specific language for pet food, setting standards for ingredients and labeling and, in 1969, they established the definition for "complete and balanced" pet food, ensuring products met the nutritional needs of pets. #10 Gimli Would Feel So Much Better If He Had A Little Taste Of Peanut Butter Toast © Photo: User #11 Patience Is A Virtue © Photo: brownishgirl #12 Looking At Food Is My Cats' Favorite Hobby © Photo: SligPants The fifties brought with them dry kibble as a convenient and shelf-stable pet food option. Advancements in technology allowed pet food manufacturers to produce dry, palatable kibble in various shapes and sizes. These innovations coincided with the post-World War II economic boom, leading to increased pet ownership and a demand for more convenient pet care solutions. In recent decades, there has been a shift towards natural, organic, and raw feeding practices. Pet owners, increasingly conscious of their pets' health and wellness, seek out diets free from artificial additives and preservatives. The raw food movement advocates for diets consisting of uncooked meats, bones, and vegetables, aiming to mimic the ancestral diets of dogs and cats. #13 Can You Tell She Really Wanted Some Tacos? © Photo: _Astronato #14 Perfect For This Subreddit © Photo: MadnessMaiden #15 I Was Told That This Was The Place For This Pic © Photo: Rusty-Crowe Bored Panda reached out to Cindy Teubes, Chief Barketing Officer at Vondi's to get some insights on who's leading the way in pet nutrition - canned food and kibble manufacturers, or the raw diet movement. According to Damian Stafford, Vondi's nutrition expert, "We now know that kibble and canned food produced using high-heat factory treatments are not the best options for pet nutrition. The modern pet food market has several competing approaches. One delineation lies between raw and cooked dog food." Stafford goes on to add, "The raw diets are fizzling because they rely on misinformation about canine nutrition. Beyond optimizing the current standards for pet nutrition, the forefront of ground-breaking pet nutrition lies in sustainability without compromising the nutrients that dogs need. The future lies in integrating alternative, sustainable protein sources like insect-based protein." #16 Bryce And The Biscuit © Photo: wartaco95 #17 Go Nuts For The Donuts © Photo: Eldiablotoro #18 Oh Boyo Oboyo Oboyo Oboyo Oboyo Oboyo Oboyo Oboyo © Photo: rastroboy #19 Toby Smells Bacon © Photo: jortbert #20 Don't Think For A Second That I Don't Know What You're After! © Photo: McMayhem27 The pet food industry often mirrors human dietary trends. As people gravitate towards gluten-free, grain-free, and plant-based diets, similar products have emerged in the pet food market. This alignment reflects the humanization of pets, with owners looking to provide their animal companions with diets comparable to their own.

For many of us, our pets are part of the family. They get to ride in our cars, sleep on our beds, and, in some instances, even accompany us to work. And who can resist those puppy dog eyes when they beg for a morsel of mom’s meatloaf at the family table?

One digital community posts pics of pets looking lovingly at their human’s food in the hopes of getting a scrap and, with 27K members, we’d say the theme is pretty popular. So, without further ado, here’s a collection of our favorites.

While you may be tempted to give Fido a bite off your plate the next time he’s giving you and your meal the side eye at the dinner table, take a moment to consider how far pet food has come since we first started spending quality time with our fluffy, furry companions. 

The evolution of pet food is a fascinating journey that mirrors societal changes, scientific advancements, and shifting perceptions of animal companionship. From table scraps to specialized diets, the history of pet food reflects our growing understanding of animal nutrition and the deepening bond between people and their pets.

In ancient times, domesticated animals like dogs and cats primarily subsisted on leftovers from human meals or even hunted their own food. This practice continued for centuries, with little distinction between human and animal diets. Pets were often fed raw meat, bones, and kitchen scraps, reflecting a utilitarian approach to animal care. 

The mid-19th century marked a significant turning point in pet nutrition, though. In the 1860s, James Spratt, an American entrepreneur, observed stray dogs in England scavenging for food. Seeing a gap in the market, he developed the first commercial dog biscuit, known as "Spratt's Patent Meat Fibrine Dog Cakes." These biscuits combined wheat meals, vegetables, beetroot, and beef blood, and were a convenient alternative.

Following Spratt's success, other companies got in on the game. In the early 20th century, canned pet foods arrived, primarily using horse meat, which was abundant and inexpensive. In 1922, the Chappel Brothers introduced "Ken-L Ration," a canned dog food made which gained widespread popularity. This period also saw the introduction of commercial cat foods, as more households began keeping kitties as indoor pets.

As the pet food industry grew, so too grew the need for regulation. In 1909, the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO) was established to oversee animal feed quality and safety. By 1917, they’d included specific language for pet food, setting standards for ingredients and labeling and, in 1969, they established the definition for "complete and balanced" pet food, ensuring products met the nutritional needs of pets.

The fifties brought with them dry kibble as a convenient and shelf-stable pet food option. Advancements in technology allowed pet food manufacturers to produce dry, palatable kibble in various shapes and sizes. These innovations coincided with the post-World War II economic boom, leading to increased pet ownership and a demand for more convenient pet care solutions.

In recent decades, there has been a shift towards natural, organic, and raw feeding practices. Pet owners, increasingly conscious of their pets' health and wellness, seek out diets free from artificial additives and preservatives. The raw food movement advocates for diets consisting of uncooked meats, bones, and vegetables, aiming to mimic the ancestral diets of dogs and cats.

Bored Panda reached out to Cindy Teubes, Chief Barketing Officer at Vondi's to get some insights on who's leading the way in pet nutrition - canned food and kibble manufacturers, or the raw diet movement.

According to Damian Stafford, Vondi's nutrition expert, "We now know that kibble and canned food produced using high-heat factory treatments are not the best options for pet nutrition. The modern pet food market has several competing approaches. One delineation lies between raw and cooked dog food."

Stafford goes on to add, "The raw diets are fizzling because they rely on misinformation about canine nutrition. Beyond optimizing the current standards for pet nutrition, the forefront of ground-breaking pet nutrition lies in sustainability without compromising the nutrients that dogs need. The future lies in integrating alternative, sustainable protein sources like insect-based protein."
