A former Playboy model on Tuesday sued the company that owns the National Enquirer so she could break her silence about an alleged affair she claims she had with President Trump.
Karen McDougal is suing American Media Inc., which paid her $150,000 for her story about the alleged affair and then withheld it from publication, The New York Times reports.
McDougal, whose lawsuit was filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, alleges that she was misled by American Media Inc. and her lawyer at the time about the deal.
She also said in the lawsuit that she was warned by the media company after the spoke with The New Yorker last month that "any further disclosures would break Karen's contract" and "cause considerable monetary damages," according to the Times.
McDougal's current lawyer, Peter Stris told the newspaper in an email that American Media Inc. carried out a "multifaceted effort to silence" his client.
The lawsuit filed today aims to restore her right to her own voice, he said. We intend to invalidate the so-called contract that American Media Inc. imposed on Karen so she can move forward with the private life she deserves.

His wife probably doesn't like it all that much, but that's between him and her. I learned that from the press when Bill was chasing interns young enough to be his daughter around his desk.
Now, if President Trump is shagging models three at a time in the Oval Office, I might have a bit of an issue with it. He's president. Needs to be doing President Stuff.
But gossip that happened a decade or more ago? Don't see how this hurts him, and I don't care about it.
I thought it had been conclusively established that having sex out of wedlock has nothing to do with your qualifications to be President.
Pres Trump will always be successful at my primary reason for voting for him - He's not Hillary Clinton, and never will be. So, no matter what, he's always ahead of what might have been.
I don't particularly like the guy either. But, I don't need to marry him, and his personality isn't at issue. It's all about performance. I hired him to do a job - go to DC and start kicking things over, firing people left, right, and center, and tearing stuff out to the roots. IMO, so far, so good.
In 2020, I'll re-evaluate. But I don't think I'm going to change my mind. He's doing what I hired him to do, and I want him to keep it up.
She is trying to Sue saying that she was coerced into the Agreement and that POTUS Trump somehow slandered her by criticizing her breaking the terms of the Contract.
Remember the Godfather, either your Signature or your Brains will be in the Contract.
She took the Cash and ran. There is no going back if Contract Law means anything in this Country anymore.
Someone is paying them.
I find it interesting that BILLIONAIRE Businessman Donald Trump, throughout his entire Career has never been successfully Sued for Sexual Harassment. (as far as I know)
This is especially noteworthy considering he has always employed a number of Women in top tier Executive Positions within his Organization.
Even Lower Management and Non Management positions in the day to day operations of his Properties are filled by Women.
I don’t care how many smoking hot pieces of ass Donald Trump nailed when he was just a billionaire and NOT the President! It’s irrelevant. Get back to me if he bangs one of them in the Oval Office.
This is nothing g but a desperate attempt by the deep state to erode Trumps approval rating. These godless corrupt people dont realize that you cant win against the almighty. I believe more everyday after all these attacks he is anointed for a purpose.
I am not DEFENDING Trump’s alleged behavior, I just don’t give a crap about it. Sunday School teachers make lousy leaders IMHO.
If his behavior troubles you, then that is your problem, not mine.
Wait ... she’s suing to get the private life she deserves by publishing information about an alleged affair with POTUS? I know I’m missing something here. Just know it.
Will everyone who has shared the Presidential Penis please just shut up?
Bill Clinton was thrown out of his Oxford studies for rape, raped many times again, had constant affairs and gropes while President, in the Oval Office even, and has visited Pedo Island dozens of times since his presidency.
No one cares.
Trump banged hot chicks. I shoulda voted for Hillary.
You raise a good point.
Am I allowed to say that on this thread?
I'm starting to wonder as well
I’m not believing any of this.
DNC operatives are probably dragging these people around.
I bet they all have another common thread like Gloria Allred or Lisa Bloom.
If any of this really happened(no it didn’t but play along)it would have been all over the National Enquirer.
None of these brief encounters in hotel rooms fit because Donald Trump was known to have potential partners carefully screened.
Deep state bs and they aren’t even good at it.
When all this was alleged to have happened he was a democrat.
The best part of this discussion is that NO ONE on FR gives a Shiite about your inane opinion. Go back to NeverTrump land!
Gloria Alread needs the money.
