Daniels has been embroiled in a legal battle with Trump concerning an alleged affair the pair had more than a decade ago. Michael Cohen, Trump’s personal lawyer, paid Daniels $130,000 for her to stay quiet regarding her relationship with Trump days before the 2016 election, but she filed a lawsuit earlier in 2018 claiming the nondisclosure agreement should be nullified because Trump didn’t sign it. Additionally, she has sued Trump and Cohen for defamation.
The White House and Trump have denied the Daniels affair.
