A Connection of Shared Values: "We Loved the Same"
O'Day described their connection as profound, stating, "we loved the same." This suggests a deep understanding and shared perspective between the two, hinting at a connection that went beyond physical attraction.
The Beginning: Meeting on "The Celebrity Apprentice"
The alleged affair reportedly began in 2011 when O'Day was a contestant on season 5 of "The Celebrity Apprentice," where Donald Trump Jr. served as an advisor. This marked the beginning of their alleged relationship, which would become a source of public fascination and controversy.

The alleged affair is believed to have occurred between late 2011 and March 2012. During this period, Donald Trump Jr. was married to Vanessa Trump. The situation became public knowledge after Vanessa Trump reportedly discovered emails exchanged between O'Day and Trump Jr.
The End of the Affair and Subsequent Divorce
The alleged affair ended in March 2012. Six years later, in March 2018, Donald Trump Jr. and Vanessa Trump announced their divorce after 12 years of marriage. O'Day's alleged affair is widely considered a contributing factor to the dissolution of their marriage.
O'Day's Past Public Statements: "Ex" and "Soulmate"

Controversial Claims: The Gay Club Bathroom Incident
O'Day has made several controversial claims regarding her alleged relationship with Trump Jr. In July 2023, during an appearance on Michael Cohen's "Mea Culpa" podcast, she claimed that their first sexual encounter occurred in a gay club bathroom, where Trump Jr. was "super comfortable."
Donald Trump Jr.'s Silence and the Impact on Public Image
Throughout the years, Donald Trump Jr. has remained silent regarding the alleged affair. This silence contrasts sharply with O'Day's openness. For Donald Trump Jr., these repeated revelations, particularly ahead of a potential political landscape, could be seen as a distraction or a challenge to his public image.
