Stormy Daniels, real name Stéphanie Clifford, built a lucrative business empire around her alleged sexual relationship with Donald Trump in 2006. She is the most scrutinized woman of the moment in the United States, far ahead of Oprah Winfrey or Michèle Obama.
In a documentary published on March 18 on the Peacock streaming platform, Stormy Daniels claims to have had a sexual encounter with the real estate mogul in 2006. The actress is coming off an appearance in Judd Apatow's comedy "40, Still a Virgin." In 2018, he gave it the more harmless but unflattering nickname "Horse Face." She uses the nickname "Tiny" in reference to her male anatomy. In the summer of 2006, when she was 27, her path crossed that of the real estate mogul in a luxury resort in Nevada. According to the ex-actress' account, the billionaire noticed her and invited her to dinner. Still, according to her, she arrives early, and he then asks her, before going to the restaurant, to meet him in his suite. She turned to striptease at a very young age to provide for her needs. Stormy Daniels has rebuilt her life. She is married to another adult film star, is the mother of a young daughter, and the owner of a horse farm. Her marriage fell apart (she has since remarried). The insults from Donald Trump supporters became more virulent, and she feared for her safety. Before, she was called "a liar, a whore, a corrupt woman.' Since the ex-president was indicted, "it's very different. We're talking about direct threats like "I'm going to come to your house and cut your throat," "your daughter should be euthanized," says the woman who considered running for the Senate in 2010. "I'm living the American dream while doing a job that I love," she says.
