Donald Trump is getting sued left and right by women. This time the lawsuit comes from an ex-Playboy Playmate.
Karen McDougal is the latest woman to hit Trump with a lawsuit, so she can freely talk about their past affair. On Tuesday, McDougal filed paperwork in California to relieve her from what she says is a “fraudulent and illegal” contract. Back in 2006, McDougal and Trump shared an intimate relationship for 10 months back; this is while he and Melania were already married. The former playmate was paid $150,000 by the National Enquirer’s parent company to keep her mouth shut about the affair.

“American Media Inc. lied to me, made empty promises, and repeatedly intimidated and manipulated me. I just want the opportunity to set the record straight and move on with my life, free from this company, its executives, and its lawyers,” said McDougal.

The CEO of American Media Inc., David Pecker is good friends with Trump and because of this McDougal believes she was tricked into selling the exclusive rights to her story so Pecker could intentionally never air it. We started to hear about McDougal after the New Yorker published a written letter she’d sent to a friend about her and Trump’s relationship.
