Melania Trump Reportedly 'Deeply Upset' by Karen McDougal's Affair With Donald, 'It's Humiliating for Her!'

As Donald Trump’s hush money trial continues, his wife, Melania Trump, is likely trying to tune out all the noise that comes with it as he’s been accused of having an affair with Stormy Daniels and ex-Playboy Playmate Karen McDougal while he was married to her. And newly married as well, since the two were married in 2005 and Donald was off banging other chicks the same year and into 2006 as well. On Tuesday, CNN’s Kaitlan Collins spoke about former National Enquirer publisher David Pecker and how he allegedly hid the ex-president’s affairs while at the magazine.

“And obviously this is going to be a really sensitive moment in this trial, which is how personal this will be for Donald Trump. Karen McDougal is one of the most personal parts of this because she alleged not only that they had an affair, she said they had a relationship,” Collins claimed. “And this was something that when, I know from covering the White House and covering Melania Trump, it was deeply upsetting for the first, the former first lady, Melania Trump, and it created a rift in the relationship between her and Donald Trump. Everyone talks about Stormy Daniels and yes, that certainly was there as well. But Karen McDougal, we were told at the time, agitated Melania Trump more so, actually, than Stormy Daniels had.”

Paula Reid also chimed in, noting that Trump and Daniels’ alleged relationship appeared to be “transactional,” and the adult film star was only talking to him because she wanted to be on The Apprentice. “And once it’s clear that wasn’t going to happen, she sort of dropped him,” Reid stated. “The Karen McDougal — as she tells the story, it was, you know, from her viewpoint, a romantic relationship that went on for some time, traveling together. It was much more of an intimate relationship, again, according to her account of events. So, it’s completely understanding why that would be frustrating and annoying to Melania and something that Trump would not want out in the public.”

According to Pecker, ex-editor-in-chief of the National Enquirer Dylan Howard called him in June 2016 about a Playboy model trying to sell the story about the relationship she had with Trump for a year.

She's already renegotiated their prenup several times. She knew the deal going in, he can do what he wants as long as it doesn't become public.

She was an illegal immigrant doing sex work for money when Jeffrey Epstein introduced her to Trump, it's hardly a traditional marriage.

You won't have to prove "marital fault" in court, and it will likely increase your financial settlement due to the egregious nature of your husband's infidelity.

"New York courts have held that judges may consider marital fault in the financial aspects of a divorce, but only if the fault was 'egregious.' That means it would have to be something outrageous or shocking to the conscience, and well outside the bounds of the typical basis for an ordinary divorce action." (Howard S. v. Lillian S., 928 N.E.2d 399 (N.Y. 2010).)

I’d say, it’s humiliating to have anything to do with don-the-con. Being married to him? I’d be hanging my head in shame and embarrassment.

along with the "Access Hollywood" tape which Melania allegedly "dismissed as locker room talk."

And all this was well known before trump and her came down the golden escalator and announced his run for president in 2015.

As I said, it's old news and was known by Melania and many of us all during the trump admin and on to now.

What, is Melania just upset because the news of all this is humiliating her yet again over trump's infidelity?

Wasn't she the mistress before wife? Why would she be surprised a cheater cheated?

I don't think she cares. Then or now. She may even be smug about his having to squirm about it now.
