Who is the porn star who claims she had sex with Donald Trump four months after Melania gave birth?

A former adult film actress has claimed that Donald Trump began an affair with her only four months after Melania Trump gave birth in 2006.

Actress Stormy Daniels allegedly began an affair in Trump’s hotel in Lake Tahoe, Nevada, after they met during a golf tournament.

After she arrived at Trump’s hotel room, she reportedly went to the bathroom and returned to find the then reality star sitting on his bed, before they went on to have ‘generic’ sex’.

Daniels has denied the allegations, but The Wall Street Journal claims that she was silenced with a $130k payment a month before Trump’s 2016 election victory.

Here’s what you need to know.

Who is Stormy Daniels?

Born Stephanie Clifford in March 1979, she adopted the stage name after becoming a stripper at the age of 17 and later joining the adult film industry.

Along with an extensive career as a porn star, Daniels has also made appearances in films including The 40 Year Old Virgin and Knocked Up.

What are the claims about her and Donald Trump?

It is alleged that she embarked on an affair with Trump in 2006, although the claims have been quashed by both her and the White House – it was her fellow porn star Alana Evans who detailed them to the Wall Street Journal.

A White House spokesperson said: ‘These are old, recycled reports, which were published and strongly denied prior to the election.’

Although Daniels has denied the claims, she was pictured together with Trump at the time of the alleged tryst.

Her denial is a marked contrast to what she said in 2011 too, when she confirmed that the pair took part in ‘generic’ sex’.

What did she say in 2011?

She previously told magazine InTouch: ‘(The sex) was textbook generic. He was like, “Come here”. And I was like, ‘Ugh, here we go’.

‘I actually don’t even know why I did it, but I do remember while we were having sex I was like, ‘Please, don’t try to pay me’.

‘“And then I remember thinking, ‘I bet if he did, it would be a lot.’
