The adult film star seeking to sue Donald Trump claims she was threatened with violence to stay silent about their alleged affair.
In a highly anticipated TV interview broadcast on Sunday night, porn actress Stormy Daniels said she was approached by a man in a car park when she sought to sell details of the fling, who told her to "leave Trump alone" and "forget about the story".
The 39-year-old told CBS News' 60 Minutes programme that she had unprotected sex with Mr Trump in July 2006, and that she was threatened when she later agreed to tell her story to a sister publication of In Touch magazine for $15,000 (£12,000) in 2011.
"A guy walked up on me and said to me, 'Leave Trump alone. Forget the story'," she claimed.
"And then he leaned around and looked at my daughter and said, 'That's a beautiful little girl. It'd be a shame if something happened to her mom'."
The model – real name Stephanie Clifford – is seeking to be released from a $130,000 non-disclosure agreement she signed shortly before the 2016 presidential election to stay quiet about the alleged affair.
She said it took place shortly after the President's wife Melania gave birth to the couple's son Barron, having been introduced to the then reality TV star at a celebrity golf tournament in Lake Tahoe.
Ms Clifford, then 27, claims she laughed at Mr Trump when he started talking about himself and showed her a magazine cover with his face on.
She said to him: "Someone should take that magazine and spank you with it."
Ms Clifford said she did not think anyone had ever spoken to him like that and she then demanded he gave her the magazine before telling him to "turn around, drop 'em".
She claims he pulled his trousers down a little bit and "I just gave him a couple swats".
He then stopped talking about himself, invited her to dinner and she met him at his hotel suite, where they later had sex.
she said she did not find him physically attracted and did not want to have sex with him but she did not say no, emphasising "I'm not a victim".
She added: "He was like, 'Wow, you – you are special. You remind me of my daughter'. You know – he was like, 'You're smart and beautiful, and a woman to be reckoned with, and I like you. I like you'."
The pair allegedly remained in touch for a year after the encounter, with Mr Trump said to have been keen for Ms Clifford to appear on the US edition of The Apprentice, which he hosted at the time.
When the adult film actress asked about his wife and newly born son she claims the businessman "brushed it aside, said 'Oh yeah, yeah, you know, don't worry about that. We don't even…we have separate rooms and stuff'".
Mr Trump, then 60, has denied that the affair took place.
His lawyer, Michael Cohen has admitted he personally paid the cashto Ms Clifford but said that neither Mr Trump nor any of his organisations were part of the transaction.
Earlier on Sunday,the lawyer for Ms Clifford posted a picture of a data disc as a "warning shot" to the President on Twitter.
Michael Avenatti said the disc contained evidence proving the President had an affair with the model and that it was a warning shot to Mr Cohen.
Ms Clifford has said she is speaking out now to set the record straight, having been left too fearful for her and her family's safety to do so previously.
Asked what she would say to the President if he were watching the interview, she said: "He knows I'm telling the truth."
