Bill Clinton was spotted palling around with California Gov. Gavin Newsom in a luxurious Mexican resort last week as troves of court documents tied to Jeffrey Epstein pulled the ex-president back in the spotlight.
The 42nd president and the Golden State governor, along with his wife Jennifer Siebel Newsom, were seen riding in a golf cart together as they vacationed at the Four Seasons Resort in Tamarindo, Mexico on Friday, according to photos obtained by The Post.
Clinton was seen sporting a multi-colored short-sleeved shirt and pair of blue shorts while carrying a Panama hat as the sun was shining, photos obtained by The Post show. He was lounging in the back of a golf cart with his legs crossed.
Newsom – dressed in dark clothes and a baseball cap — was joined by his wife Jennifer in the front of the cart, according to the photos.
It’s unclear if former presidential candidate and ex-secretary of state Hillary Clinton was also at the ritzy resort.
Bill was apparently staying in a villa that could only be reached by private footpath, but the US Secret Service made sure other guests couldn’t come close to that spot, according to the witness.
Emails to the Clinton Foundation and the California governor’s office about the pair of Democrats spending time together were not immediately returned Monday evening.
Before enjoying his resort stay, the ex-president was seen south of the border two days prior when he visited San Miguel de Allende in central Mexico.
The mayor of the small city boasted about the visit on social media.
“Even Bill Clinton walks calmly and safely through the streets of San Miguel de Allende, enjoying its unique beauty and kindness of the people of San Miguel de Allende,” Mayor Mauricio Trejo Pureco posted on X.
Bill was thrust back into Epstein’s orbit last week when documents tied to the pedophile were released, though he was not implicated in any illegal activity or wrongdoing.
One mention includes 2016 testimony from Epstein accuser Johanna Sjoberg, who said Epstein told her the former president “likes them young” — referring to his preference for women.
Other appearances in the court documents include Epstein accuser Virginia Giuffre’s attempts to compel Bill to be deposed in her 2015 lawsuit against Ghislaine Maxwell, who is serving 20 years behind bars for her role in the sex trafficking scheme.
The former president has admitted to flying on Epstein’s jet around the world, but has staunchly insisted he did not know about the pervert’s twisted sex crimes.
Well before being seen together last week, Bill and Newsom have had a friendly relationship.
Newsom wished him a happy 70th birthday in 2016, saying he was grateful for the former president’s leadership and friendship.
The California governor also delivered remarks at a Clinton Global Initiative 2022 meeting that focused on tackling climate change.
