Porn star Stormy Daniels has been offered $1million by “at least” ten people to cover the penalty if she spoke publicly about her alleged affair with Donald Trump.
The adult actress’s lawyer, Michael Avenatti, has said his client would be covered if she chooses to speak out despite signing a gagging agreement with the President’s lawyer.
Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, was paid £94,000 just weeks before the 2016 US election to keep quiet about her alleged sexual relationship with Trump. She is claimed to have an affair with the billionaire which began weeks after his son, Barron, was born in 2006 to wife, Melania.
As part of Daniels non-disclosure agreement, it forbid her from ever contacting any of the Trump family or talking about her affair the President. The contract states she will have to pay $1 million (£720,000) if she ever broke the terms of the agreement. Last week Daniels, 38, filed a civil lawsuit against Trump in Los Angeles Superior Court claiming the contract is null and void since the President never signed it.
While appearing on CNN, Mr Avenatti was asked if anyone “offered to pony up the million dollars to protect her” to allow the porn star to speak. “At least ten individuals in the last three days alone,” he replied. He added she was not seriously considering any of the offers.
Daniels, star of more than 150 adult movies including Good Will Humping, believes as Trump did not sign the agreement the contract is not binding and therefore she should be allowed her to speak freely about her relationship with Trump. She is one of more than 20 women to come forward to accuse the President of an affair or sexual misconduct.
