Stephanie Clifford, the adult film actress and exotic dancer known as Stormy Daniels, took the stand Tuesday in Donald Trump‘s hush money trial.
Her testimony involved details of her journey into exotic dancing and provided information about her encounter with Trump in July 2006.
She has also seemed to have confirmed a detail regarding the former president’s relationship with his wife, Melania.
In response to questioning, Daniels testified that Trump’s bodyguard, Keith Schiller, asked her if she wanted to join Trump for dinner, which she refused. However, upon her publicist’s insisting, she agreed and found herself arriving at the penthouse floor where she encountered Schiller and noticed a partially open door to Trump’s room.
According to her, Trump was wearing satin pajamas and she asked him to change, which she did. What followed was a conversation during which the business mogul asked “very thought-out business questions” about Daniels’ work.
“He asked about the business aspects of it. Are there any unions, do you get residuals, how are people paid. Do you get health insurance. What about testing. Are you worried about STDs?” she recalled on the stand.
While he was interested into Daniels’ personal life, their discussion about him and his wife Melania, who had recently given birth to their son Barron, was described as “very brief.”
Daniels recalled asking Trump about his wife and commenting of her beauty, and remembered him saying “We don’t sleep in the same room.”
In a Washington Post feature from 2018, a source disclosed that then-President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump did not share a bedroom.
First lady scholar Annette Dunlap shared with People that the last time couples occupied separate bedrooms in the White House was Patricia and Richard Nixon. Prior to the 1970s, it wasn’t particularly unusual for couples to have separate sleeping arrangements.
“It was kind of a European thing,” Dunlap said at the time. “The idea of sleeping in the same bed together in the late 19th century and into the early 20th century was a symbol of poverty, because you couldn’t afford your own bed or your own bedroom.”
