‘Trump told Stormy Daniels she reminded him of his blonde and beautiful daughter Ivanka’

Porn star Stormy Daniels said that ex-President Donald Trump told her she reminded him of his daughter who is ‘smart and blonde and beautiful’.

Daniels claimed that Trump remarked, presumably about his eldest Ivanka Trump, ‘She’s smart and blonde and beautiful and people underestimate her as well,’ reported The New York Times.

The adult film star – whose alleged sexual affair with Trump is at the center of his hush money trial – also said Trump told her not to worry about his wife Melania Trump because they didn’t ‘even sleep in the same room’.

Trump shook his head slightly and gave a sour look as Daniels mentioned his wife on the witness stand on Tuesday morning, according to The Times.

Daniels’ comment about Trump’s daughter is one she has uttered before. Daniels told In Touch magazine in 2011: ‘He told me once that I was someone to be reckoned with, beautiful and smart just like his daughter.’ When the alleged affair happened, Trump’s younger daughter who is also blonde, Tiffany Trump, was 13 years old, so Daniels assumed he was referring to Ivanka.

Trump has notoriously made numerous compliments publicly about Ivanka, whom he appointed as his senior White House adviser while president.

Daniels described her dinner with Trump at Lake Tahoe in 2006, which led to his historic criminal trial.
