Trump rape accuser E. Jean Carroll has been fired by ELLE after having her name 'dragged through mud' by the president seven months after she accused him of raping her.

Carroll accused Trump of raping her in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room in the 1980s in June last year. She sued him ever since, the pair have been entangled in a legal back and forth.

On Tuesday, Carroll tweeted that she had been fired by ELLE, the magazine she wrote an advice column for for 26 years.

'Because Trump ridiculed my reputation, laughed at my looks, & dragged me through the mud, after 26 years, ELLE fired me. I don't blame Elle.

'It was the great honor of my life writing "Ask E. Jean." I blame @realdonaltrump,' she said.

E. Jean Carroll publicly accused Trump of rape last June then sued him in November after he called her a liar

On December 11, Carroll received this email from ELLE's Executive Managing Editor informing her that her contract would be terminated after 26 years

ELLE has not commented to her claims and did not immediately respond to DailyMail.com's inquiries on Wednesday.

The revelation that she had been fired was included in court documents filed by her lawyer, Roberta Kaplan, on Tuesday.

Carroll's allegation against Trump went public last June in an excerpt of her book that was published by New York Magazine.

She said it happened in 1996. She had run into Trump in the luxury department store and he recognized her from her advice column.

After asking her to help him pick out a gift for a woman, he took her to the lingerie department and asked her to try on an item he'd selected, she claimed.

Then, she alleged that he raped her in the dressing room after a 'colossal struggle'.

Carroll tweeted this on Tuesday after her attorneys included the email in court on Tuesday

Trump denies it vehemently and said he does not even remember meeting her.

After his denial, Carroll sued him for defamation.

To fight the lawsuit, Trump is trying to delay it. His attorneys say that her case should not proceed until that of Summer Zervos - an apprentice contestant who also claims he assaulted her - is resolved.

That case is also on hold pending a decision by the New York Court of Appeals on whether or not a sitting president can be sued.

Kaplan said in her filings on Tuesday that Trump is trying to stall both cases.

In a statement to DailyMail.com, she said: 'Our client filed this lawsuit to prove that Donald Trump lied about sexually assaulting her and to restore her credibility and reputation.

'From the very beginning, Trump has tried every tactic lawyers can think of to halt this case in its tracks and keep the truth from coming out.

'His latest effort — a motion to stay our client’s case until the New York Court of Appeals decides the Summer Zervos case likely after November 2020 — is yet another obvious delay tactic that is not grounded in the law and, like his previous attempts to stall this case, will be rejected by the court.'

In her book, Carroll describes the 'attack' in more detail.

Carroll claims Trump raped her in a dressing room in Bergdorf Goodman's in the 1990s

'He opens the overcoat, unzips his pants, and, forcing his fingers around my private area, thrusts his penis halfway — or completely, I’m not certain — inside me.

'It turns into a colossal struggle.

'I am wearing a pair of sturdy black patent-leather four-inch Barneys high heels, which puts my height around six-one, and I try to stomp his foot. I try to push him off with my one free hand — for some reason, I keep holding my purse with the other — and I finally get a knee up high enough to push him out and off and I turn, open the door, and run out of the dressing room.

'The whole episode lasts no more than three minutes. I do not believe he ejaculates. I don’t remember if any person or attendant is now in the lingerie department.

'I don’t remember if I run for the elevator or if I take the slow ride down on the escalator. As soon as I land on the main floor, I run through the store and out the door — I don’t recall which door — and find myself outside on Fifth Avenue.

'The Donna Karan coatdress still hangs on the back of my closet door, unworn and unlaundered since that evening,' she wrote'.

Kaplan has asked Trump's lawyers for a DNA sample so she can see if it matches a trace of DNA found on the dress.

She has asked lawyers to provide the sample by March 2.
