Bleary-eyed Eric Swalwell wears a robe, parties with ‘yacht girls’ during ‘hush-hush’ St. Tropez blowout, wild video shows
A newly surfaced video shows a bleary-eyed Eric Swalwell in a robe during a blowout trip on a yacht off St. Tropez with a bevy of young women, Page Six has learned.
The mysterious clip appeared on social media Sunday as Swalwell was hit with sexual harassment allegations that forced him first to drop out of the California governor’s race and then resign from Congress. Swalwell has denied the sexual misconduct allegations.
But we’ve learned the context of the stunning footage.
Sources tell us that in early September 2022, two of Swalwell’s pals jetted by private plane from Las Vegas to the French Riviera town where they chartered the 200-foot Arience yacht and called Swalwell to come join them.
We’re told there were some four or five men on the boat, including Swalwell, and a group of beautiful young women. One of the men is believed to be the entrepreneur Nik Richie.
According to our source, one of the women, a Brit believed to be in her late teens, appeared to be romantically involved with one of the men in the group. But the five or six other women, a mix of Brits and Americans who were a little older (apparently in their 20s), seemed otherwise unacquainted both with the group and with each other.
“The people on the boat were told to keep it hush-hush about Swalwell being on the trip,” said a source familiar with the weeklong excursion around the French Riviera. “They were told everything stays on the boat.”
The former Bay Area representative had been in Congress nine years by the time of the getaway.
“It didn’t seem like a politician,” said a source familiar with the antics aboard. “More like president of a frat house.”
We’re told some of the women seemed to be shipped back to shore, never to return, while others arrived to “replace them.”
We’re told the trip had a bacchanalian feel with booze flowing freely and that the group filled their days with jet skiing and lounging on the deck.
The source said they weren’t specifically aware of Swalwell being sexually or romantically involved with any of the women.
