Jeffrey Epstein‘s Australian sex trafficking victim Virginia Roberts has moved to Perth with her family after buying a $1.9million luxurious beachside home.
Ms Roberts, 37, who is also known by her married name Giuffre, on Thursday shared a smiling family photo outside the coastal home in Ocean Reef in the city’s northern suburbs after relocating 4,400km across the country from Cairns.
The home is billed as a ‘peaceful cul-de-sac location’ with ‘breathtaking ocean views’ and boasts a swimming pool, six bedrooms, and four bathrooms.
‘Our new home,’ Ms Roberts wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of her with her husband Robert Giuffre, three children, and family dog in front of the house.

Ms Roberts was born in the US but moved Down Under after meeting her Australian husband who was working as a martial arts expert in Thailand.
She escaped Epstein’s clutches at the age of 19 after he bought her a plane ticket to the southeast Asian country, where he enrolled her in a massage course.
The mother-of-three has claimed Epstein forced her to have sex with Prince Andrew when she was as young as 17-years-old on at least three occasions.
They include at Epstein’s alleged former madam Ghislaine Maxwell‘s apartment in London, in New York, and on Epstein’s private island in the US Virgin Islands.
Roberts also claims she spent two days alone with Prince Andrew at Epstein‘s New Mexico ranch, where she was directed to ‘entertain him endlessly’ and give him ‘erotic massages’, according to unsealed court documents.
The claims have all been strongly denied by the British royal.
Prince Andrew also disputes a photograph seemingly showing them together, with the royal posing with his hand on her waist, when she was a teenager is real.
Maxwell is accused of helping Epstein recruit and groom underage girls as young as 14 to engage in illegal sexual acts in the mid-1990s.

Maxwell was arrested on July 2 in New Hampshire, where prosecutors said she had been hiding out.
She has been locked up in a Brooklyn jail after US District Judge Alison Nathan, who oversees the criminal case, called her an unacceptable flight risk.
Maxwell has pleaded not guilty to charges that she procured three girls for Epstein to abuse in the mid-1990s, and denies all other allegations.
In October, Roberts slammed the decision to redact Prince Andrew’s name from newly released court documents in the Maxwell case.
The unsealed court records from a 2016 deposition show Epstein told Maxwell to offer a reward to anyone who could discredit Roberts after she accused them of rape.
‘I feel very angry,’ she told ABC News.
‘I don’t understand why we are protecting someone who hides behind mummy’s skirt and says “I didn’t do it”. His name should have been out there in the deposition.’

Lisa Bloom, attorney for six of Epstein’s victims, has separately urged the Duke to talk to the FBI – a year after he agreed to assist with their investigation into the paedophile.
Speaking on British TV show Lorraine, Bloom said she hopes a Biden White House might bring fresh pressure on Andrew to make good on his promise.
‘I have great faith in our Vice President elect Kamala Harris who is a former prosecutor who is tough as nails on behalf of victims of sex assault,’ she said.
‘So perhaps she will get tough and stand up for victims and insist that Prince Andrew answer questions.
‘Not just answer questions, but also turn over documents, calendars, diaries, information, and encourage those around him to go and testify to what they know.’
