Melania Trump is finally sharing her thoughts on her husband's alleged affairs.
The first lady told ABC News this week that the allegations of President Trump being unfaithful to her about a decade ago are "not a concern" because she has "much more important things to think about and to do." Adult film actress Stormy Daniels has claimed she had an affair with Donald Trump in 2006, and model Karen McDougal has claimed she had an affair with him around the same time. Donald and Melania Trump married in 2005 and had their son Barron in 2006. A White House spokesperson said in February that Trump denies having a relationship with McDougal, and the president tweeted in May that Daniels' allegations were "false and extortionist."
