A Playboy model who allegedly had an affair with Trump reported what he said about Ivanka and it's disturbing people

A former Playboy model who claims to have had an affair with Donald Trump has said that the President compared her to his daughter Ivanka.

Speaking to CNN Karen McDougal stated that she had an affair with Trump for 10 months between 2006 and 2007, with their first sexual encounter taking place at a Beverly Hills Hotel.

She is said to have first met Trump at the Playboy Mansion during filming for the Celebrity Apprentice and admitted that he was a "nice looking" and charismatic man.

During the interview with journalist Anderson Cooper, the 47-year-old said that Trump had offered her money after the first time they had sex but she refused.

Despite admitting that she was upset after the gesture, she continued to see Trump at his various properties around the US and had sex with him "many dozens of times".

However, one of the most disturbing elements of this interview is McDougal's claims that Trump sometimes complimented her with comparisons to Ivanka.

Cooper asked her:

Did he ever compare you to any of his kids?

In reply, McDougal said that he did and that she heard a lot about Ivanka during the affair. She is quoted as saying:

You know, he’s very proud of Ivanka as he should be.

She’s a brilliant woman, she’s beautiful, she’s — you know, that’s his daughter and he should be proud of her.

He said I was beautiful like her and, you know, ‘you’re a smart girl’ and there wasn’t a lot of comparing but there was some, yeah. I heard a lot about her.

These quotes haven't escaped people on Twitter, who are grossed out the thought of Trump having sex with a woman who reminded him of his own daughter.

Images of Donald, Melania and Ivanka with McDougal at the Playboy mansion have since begun to appear online.

Besides the allegations that Trump had an affair with a woman just a few months into his marriage to Melania, this will do little to distract people away from the awkward relationship the President shares with his daughter.

The White House has reported that Trump has denied having an affair with McDougal and chose not to immediately respond after the interview aired on Thursday night.

McDougal added that she had sympathy for Melania and wouldn't want the same thing to happen to her.

What can you say except, I'm sorry? I'm sorry I wouldn't want it done to me.
