An interview with the porn star reportedly paid $130,000 to stay silent about an alleged affair with Donald Trump has been published by a celebrity magazine - in which she claims he told her she was “just like his daughter”.

Stormy Daniels, 38, spoke to In Touch magazine in 2011, but the interview remained unpublished until Wednesday - after rumours of the affair resurfaced in the Wall Street Journal.

Donald Trump's lawyer released a letter on January 10 - signed by Stormy - denying any sexual relationship.

The published interview hit newsstands today and contains explicit details of the affair, which reportedly began in Donald Trump’s Lake Tahoe hotel suite in 2006 - three months after Trump’s wife Melania gave birth to their son Barron.

Stormy, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, described the brief interactions between her and Mr Trump that eventually led up to “textbook generic” sex.

According to her recollection of the affair, supported by a polygraph test at the time of the interview, the pair met at the American Century celebrity golf tournament in July.

After a quick introduction, Stormy recalled how the business mogul came by the gift lounge sponsored by her adult film company, Wicked Pictures, later that day to ask Stormy for her number.

When he asked her to dinner, she says she accepted. But despite dressing for a night out, Stormy arrived at Mr Trump's suite to find him sprawled on the couch watching TV, wearing pyjama pants.

Clearly surprised the billionaire mogul wasn’t dressed for dinner, Stormy admits she was mean to him: “I was like, ‘Ha, does Mr Hefner know that you stole his outfit?’” to which Trump “got all huffy and tried to play it off.”

Despite the rough start to the evening, the pair ended up having dinner in the room.

Donald Trump repeatedly told Stormy he wanted to put her on his TV show, The Apprentice

After excusing herself to go to the bathroom at one point during the date, Stormy returned to find Mr Trump sitting on the bed. When he said "come here", she says she thought, "ugh, here we go" and they started kissing.

According to Stormy, the sex was forgettable. Admitting the two did not use protection, Stormy said that the sex was “nothing crazy. It was one position, what you would expect someone his age to do.”

From that point on, Stormy said Mr Trump called her often, meeting with her on several occasions - even telling her “I was someone to be reckoned with, beautiful and smart just like his daughter.”

She says he even promised her a role on his NBC reality show The Apprentice.

According to Stormy, the last call she received from Trump was in 2009, or early 2010.

Stormy’s account of the affair was also supported by her ex-husband, Mike Moz, who told In Touch in 2011 that the two spoke frequently.

President Trump’s lawyer, Michael Cohen, who allegedly arranged the silence payment, has repeatedly denied allegations of the affair, stating: “President Trump once again vehemently denies any such occurrence, as has Ms Daniels.”
