Rumors of Donald Trump's extramarital affairs continue to catch up with the president. A recent discovery indicates that Stephanie Clifford was not the only woman with whom he had an affair.
Clifford is an actress, screenwriter and director in the adult film industry where she works under the stage name Stormy Daniels.
Clifford's attorney, Michael Avenatti, announced on Thursday he is now representing three other women who were allegedly paid off by Donald Trump, American Media Inc (AMI) and Trump's former lawyer and fixer, Michael Cohen, in exchange for their silence.
ABC 7 news said Avenatti revealed the information during a West Hollywood panel that included Mayor John Duran, former federal prosecutor Steve Madison and Mariana Magana Gamero, who is a member of the Coalition for Human Immigration Rights of Los Angeles.
Details are scant, however, as Avenatti's disclosure omitted the identities of the women and the amount of money they were each paid in order for them to remain quiet about their involvement with the President.
Avenatti stated:
There are three additional female clients of mine that have not been disclosed that were paid hush money prior to the 2016 election, whether it be from Michael Cohen on behalf of the president, an entity that Michael Cohen formed, or AMI.
A possible pregnancy was mentioned as Clifford's lawyer continues receiving further intel about payment arrangements. Avenatti also pointed out:
Last time I checked, they weren't just handing out checks to anyone whether they had a relationship or not.
Stephanie Clifford said she had a liaison with Donald Trump in 2006 – an allegation Trump vehemently continues to deny. Yet in the days leading up to the 2016 presidential election, Clifford was paid $130,000 to stay silent about the tryst in a transaction handled by Michael Cohen.
Angel Ryan, a sex educator who teaches seminars and workshops around the world and works as an adult film actress under the name Jessica Drake, accused Trump of sexual misconduct in October 2016 and claims to have "confidential information" regarding his affair with Clifford.
Business Insider said both Ryan and Clifford, better known in the media as Drake and Daniels, met Trump at a Lake Tahoe celebrity golf tournament in 2006.
Avenatti's disclosure follows the report of an audio recording from the two months prior to the 2016 presidential election submitted to CNN by Cohen's lawyer, Lanny Davis.
In the recording, Trump and Cohen can be heard discussing payment arrangements to former Playboy model Karen McDougal, according to USA Today.
