Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein’s Bizarre Pregnancy Bet Revealed
Biographer Michael Wolff alleges that Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein discussed pushing Marla Maples down the stairs after she announced her pregnancy in 1993. While the White House has dismissed these claims as fabricated, emails from the Epstein files reportedly confirm a bet involving a truckload of baby food regarding the pregnancy.
What were the claims regarding Marla Maples’ pregnancy?
According to Michael Wolff in his Substack series “The Epstein Diaries,” Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein debated taking drastic measures after Maples revealed she was expecting a child. Wolff writes that Trump suggested pushing Maples down the stairs, while Epstein reportedly suggested his friend was “simply screwed.”
Wolff further reports that Epstein initially doubted the pregnancy. The two men entered a bet where Epstein would provide a truckload of baby food if the pregnancy were real. Once the pregnancy was confirmed, Epstein delivered the baby food.
How did the pregnancy and relationship timeline unfold?
Tiffany Trump was born on October 13, 1993. She is the only child from the relationship between Trump and Maples and the fourth of Trump’s five children.
The couple married on December 20, 1993, at the New York Plaza Hotel, two months after the birth. Jeffrey Epstein attended the wedding. The relationship, which began during Trump’s marriage to Ivana Trump in the late 1980s, ended in separation in 1997. The divorce became official in 1999, by which time Trump had begun a relationship with Melania Trump.
What is the official response to these reports?
The Trump administration has rejected the claims. White House Communications Director Steven Cheung told “The Daily Beast” that the stories are completely invented.
Cheung described Michael Wolff as a “fraud” and claimed the narratives were products of Wolff’s “sick and twisted imagination.”
What may happen next?
Further disclosures from the Epstein files could potentially provide more context regarding the interactions between Trump and Epstein. It is possible that additional witnesses or documents may be cited to either support or refute Wolff’s claims.
