Donald Trump 'had an affair with a Playboy Bunny' just months after Melania gave birth

Donald Trump embarked on an affair with a Playboy bunny when his son Barron with Melania was just a few months old, the New Yorker has reported.

The President reportedly met Karen McDougal, who was voted runner-up for best Playmate of the ’90s, at a pool party at the Playboy Mansion in 2006.

At the time he had been married to third wife Melania for less than two years.

McDougal claims that the businessman was so taken with her at the party that one Playboy exec told her: “I think you could be his next wife”.

A handwritten note by the model that was obtained by the New Yorker reveals that Mr Trump allegedly offered her money after they had sex, and when she refused told her she was “special”.

‘We talked for a couple hours – then, it was “ON”! We got naked and had sex.’ she wrote.

‘He offered me money. I looked at him (and felt sad) and said, “No thanks – I’m not ‘that girl.’

‘I slept w/you because I like you – NOT for money. He told me “you are special.”‘

The model said Mr Trump always ordered the same meal – steak and mashed potato – and never drank, describing him as “charming” and “polite”.

McDougal’s note claims the POTUS paid for her to travel across the country as well as taking her on a tour of Trump Towers, even pointing out Melania’s separate bedroom.

She wrote: ‘He said she liked her space. To read or be alone’

The Playboy Bunny said she ended the relationship in 2007 after nine months after feeling guilty about the affair and “disrespectful comments” made by Mr Trump.

The allegations have echoes of similar claims made about Trump’s alleged affairs.

Adult film star Stormy Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, claimed she had a sexual relationship with Trump in 2006 but was paid to keep quiet about it.

In an interview she said she regretted it and felt sorry for Melania, who had given birth to Barron just four months before she and Trump met at a celebrity golf tournament.

Of the allegations about McDougal, a White House spokesman as said: “This is an old story that is just more fake news. The President says he never had a relationship with McDougal.”
