Princess Diana at center of latest Trump-Epstein bombshell

The late Princess Diana is at the center of a new revelation about the relationship between President Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein, the disgraced financier who died in 2019 awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges. The revelation sparked fury from the White House.According to Trump biographer Michael Wolf, Trump and Epstein allegedly competed to see which of the two could sleep with Diana first — with the contest continuing until the Princess of Wales died in the extensively covered 1997 vehicle crash in Paris, France.“They had a competition, Trump and Epstein,” Wolff told The Daily Beast, speaking on the publication’s podcast Inside Trump’s Head. “Of who would be the one, the first one to sleep with Princess Diana... they just understood, what could you get from these people? Both Trump and Epstein. What can you get from somebody, is the question you would always ask about anybody.”The Daily Beast’s report triggered an angry response from the White House, with Trump's Communications Director Steven Cheung lashing out at Wolff, who personally interviewed Epstein in 2017 and claims to possess more than 100 hours of recorded conversations with the late sex offender.“Michael Wolff is a lying sack of s--t and has been proven to be a fraud,” Cheung told The Daily Beast. “He routinely fabricates stories originating from his sick and warped imagination, only possible because he has a severe and debilitating case of Trump derangement syndrome that has rotted his peanut-sized brain.”The revelation, however, would be consistent with past comments made by Trump over the years. English journalist Selina Scott reported in 2015 that Trump said he wanted Diana to become his “trophy wife” following her 1996 divorce from then-Prince Charles, sending her flowers following the separation.Trump would go on to tell radio personality Howard Stern, on air in 1997, that he believed he “could have” slept with Diana, and would repeat the claims again to Stern in 2000, saying he would have slept with the Princess of Wales “without hesitation.”Trump’s ties with Epstein have been under increased scrutiny since the bombshell report from The Wall Street Journal in July that revealed new details about their relationship, suggesting it was more intimate than previously known. The Justice Department is also sitting on thousands of files related to Epstein that it refuses to release — files that Trump was told he was named in by Attorney General Pam Bondi.
