The columnist’s book, which detailed allegations that Trump raped her in a New York department store dressing room in the 1990s, officially came out in July. An excerpt was published in New York Magazine in June.

Since 2015, more than a dozen women have alleged Trump participated in sexual misconduct over decades. The president has denied all allegations.

Hill admitted to having an “inappropriate” relationship with a campaign aide on Wednesday after the House Ethics Committee announced it was investigating the California representative. The conservative site RedState published an article last week alleging Hill’s sexual relationship with a staff member along with a nude photo of the representative with a female staffer.
