Following the late January 2026 release of more files related to the case of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein,
For example, one Facebook user posted the clip on Feb. 3, during which Spacey appeared to say (archived):
In 2015, I started seeing reports online, things on my Twitter account, that I had flown to this guy Jeffrey Epstein's island and I had abused young girls. And I was like, I mean, if you'd asked me in 2015, maybe even if you'd asked me in 2002, did I know a guy named Jeffrey Epstein, I probably would have said no.
Well, of course, I have since learned who he is and I have since been able to go back and find out that the airplane that we flew on for this humanitarian mission was owned by Jeffrey Epstein, and to then learn, "Oh, he was actually on some of those flights and this Maxwell woman was on some of those flights."
I didn't know him. I've never spent any time with him. I was with the Clinton Foundation people, that's who I was with.
[ ... ]
I didn't want to be around this guy because I felt he put the president at risk on that trip to South Africa because there were these young girls, and we were like, "Who is this guy?" So, I will say this, there were young girls on those flights.
The footage appeared elsewhere on Facebook in February 2026, as well as on X. Social media users also posted it in June 2024.
In July 2023, Spacey was found not guilty on all charges of sexual assault against four men between 2001 and 2013 following a trial in London, U.K. In October 2022, a U.S. court also dismissed a sexual assault lawsuit against the actor.
However, as of early 2026 he was set to face civil claims over allegations that he sexually assaulted three men between 2000 and 2013.
In short, Spacey did appear in an interview with Morgan on June 11, 2024. He said he flew with Clinton Foundation members on one of Epstein's planes that also had "young girls" on it. Therefore, we have rated this claim true.
Morgan's show, "Piers Morgan Uncensored," posted the same footage on X on June 11.
The full show was also posted on the Piers Morgan Uncensored YouTube channel that same day. The clip starts at around 1:11:38 and ends at around 1:13:44.
During the interview, Spacey said he learned a plane he used to fly to South Africa in for humanitarian work with the Clinton Foundation, the charity former U.S. President Bill Clinton established, belonged to Epstein:

Well, of course, I have since learned who he is and I have since been able to go back and find out that the airplane that we flew on for this humanitarian mission was owned by Jeffrey Epstein. And to then learn, "oh, he was actually on some of those flights, and this [Ghislaine] Maxwell woman was on some of those flights." I didn't know him. I've never spent any time with him. I was with the Clinton Foundation people, that's who I was with.
Spacey also said he had no relationship with Maxwell or Epstein and "never spent time" with the latter.
He then explained he never took anything, such as money, from Epstein, as he "didn't want to be around this guy," and that he never visited Epstein's island, where the late financier
I felt he put the president [Bill Clinton] at risk on that trip to South Africa because there were these young girls; and we were like, "who's this guy?"... there were young girls on those flights, and that's been out. They've talked about it. But here's my point, there's a big difference between not remembering that I met some guy and some woman on a humanitarian trip where my focus was entirely on what we were there to do, and not remembering whether I went to somebody's island. So, I never went to Jeffrey Epstein's island. I did not know him.
