Pagesix reports documents in the Epstein Files show Michelle Kydd, a founding member of Time's Up, engaged with Jeffrey Epstein in 2016 — two years before the group's high-profile 2018 debut at the Golden Globes. The files include emails and texts involving Joichi "Joi" Ito, Reid Hoffman and Steve Bannon that indicate outreach to Time's Up and to Kydd.

In a 2014 email, Ito told Epstein that Kydd "is the one everyone goes to when famous people under the protection of CAA go to when they get in trouble," and Kydd wrote to Epstein on April 30, 2016, sharing contact details for crisis public relations advisers. It is not clear what, if anything, followed beyond that correspondence.
