The lawyer for porn star Stormy Daniels today said that she had a sexual relationship with Donald Trump and wants to nullify a "hush agreement" so the public can decide "who's telling the truth."
Los Angeles lawyer Michael Avenatti filed a lawsuit on behalf of Daniels yesterday seeking to toss out the confidential settlement she signed just days before the November 2016 election.
Avenatti made the rounds of the morning talk shows today to explain the legal move by Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford.
Asked on NBC's "Today" show if Daniels had a sexual relationship with Trump, Avenatti immediately replied "Yes."
"She believes it's important that the public learn the truth about what happened," he said. "I think it's time for her to tell her story and for the public to decide who's telling the truth."
The White House has dodged questions about whether allegations of the affair are true, claiming the matter was dealt with during the campaign.
"We've addressed our feelings on that situation and I don't have anything else to add," White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders said today.
