First Lady Melania Trump was reportedly blindsided by the bombshell
report that President Donald Trump's lawyer previously arranged a payment
to Stephanie Clifford, a porn star who goes by the stage name
"Stormy Daniels," to keep her from publicly disclosing an alleged
sexual encounter with Donald Trump.

Melania was furious at the president, two people close to the
Trumps said in a New York Times report published on Monday.

The alleged sexual encounter, first reported in The Wall Street
Journal, alleged that Michael Cohen, the president's longtime
attorney, had arranged a payment of $130,000 to Daniels, a month
before the 2016 US presidential election. Following the report,
celebrity gossip magazine InTouch published a seven-year-old
interview with Daniels, in which the former porn star described
an alleged encounter with the president.

The Trump administration has denied the allegation. Cohen shared
what he said was a letter from Daniels, dated
January 10, 2018, denying she was paid to keep quiet about the
alleged incident.

The first lady's communications director, Stephanie Grisham,
criticized reports surrounding Melania Trump's behavior of late,
calling
it "salacious and flat-out false."

Following the reports of the alleged sexual encounters, Melania
unexpectedly dropped out of a two-day trip with the president to
Davos, Switzerland, for the World Economic Forum, where he met
with, and addressed world leaders.

The first lady made an unexpected trip to the
Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington instead, ahead of the
International Day of Holocaust Remembrance.

Despite her recent absence from the public spotlight, the first
lady is expected to attend the president's first State of the
Union address on Tuesday, where Trump will deliver a speech on "building a safe,
strong and proud America."
