The then 24-year-old model was in Trump’s VIP lodge during the US Open tennis tournament in New York with her boyfriend when the incident occurred in 1997, she told British newspaper The Guardian.
The then-girlfriend is said to be a close friend of Trump.
She says she was on her way to the bathroom when the current president grabbed her.
– His hands were everywhere, on my butt, his breasts
He pressed his tongue down my throat. When I pulled her away, her grip tightened. His hands were everywhere, on my butt, breasts and backsays the older model.
She says she finally had to use her teeth to stick out Trump’s tongue.
The current president of the United States was then 51 years old and was married to his second wife, Marla Maples.
In connection with the metoo campaign in 2017, at least 19 women stood up and accused the president of harassment and abuse, according to The Atlantic.
Retaliation feared
Dorris is currently 48 years old and lives in Florida. She says she considered appearing in 2016 when several other women presented similar depictions, but gave up when she feared retaliation against her family.
– Now that my girls are 13 years old, I want them to know that you should not let anyone do anything to you that you do not want. I want to be a role model for them so they can see that I didn’t keep quiet, but stood up and said when someone did something to me that was unacceptable, she says.
She says the alleged assault took place behind a living wall near the bathroom in the VIP room at the tennis arena.
Trump’s lawyers reject
She has given the newspaper photos of her, her then boyfriend and Trump.
Her mother, psychiatrists and friends independently told the newspaper that she told them the events shortly after they happened.
The then-girlfriend declined to comment on the revelations, while Trump’s lawyers deny the allegations to the newspaper. They wonder why Dorris never reviewed the case or raised it directly with Trump.
They also criticize that this revelation comes in the middle of the electoral campaign between Trump and Joe Biden, and consider it politically motivated.
