A former model, Stacey Williams, has come forward with disturbing allegations against Donald Trump, accusing him of groping her during a visit to Trump Tower in 1993. Williams, who says she met Trump through the late Jeffrey Epstein, claims the incident left her feeling like a pawn in what she describes as a “twisted game” between the two men.

Stacey Williams was a professional model in the 1990s when she first crossed paths with Trump. According to Williams, she met Trump at a 1992 Christmas party, introduced by Epstein, with whom she was casually dating at the time. Epstein, later convicted of sex crimes, was widely known for his connections to influential figures, including Trump.

In a recent interview, Williams recalled the unsettling encounter that took place in the late winter or early spring of 1993. She says Epstein suggested they stop by Trump Tower during a walk, where they were greeted by Trump. Not long after, Williams alleges Trump pulled her in and began groping her. She claims he placed his hands on her breasts, waist, and buttocks while Epstein stood nearby, both men allegedly smiling as the disturbing incident unfolded.

Williams admits she froze, unsure of what was happening, describing the moment as deeply confusing. “It felt orchestrated,” she said. “I felt like a piece of meat.”

The day after the alleged incident, Williams says she received a postcard from Trump, delivered to her modeling agent. The postcard featured an aerial view of Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s Palm Beach estate. In Trump’s handwriting, it read, “Stacey – Your home away from home. Love, Donald.”

Williams, who hails from Pennsylvania and is now 56, shared the postcard with The Guardian as part of her account. She had previously hinted at her experience on social media but decided to share the full details during a recent Zoom call organized by Survivors4Harris, a group that supports Kamala Harris.

In response to the allegations, Trump’s campaign press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, issued a statement calling Williams’ claims “unequivocally false.” Leavitt suggested the accusations were politically motivated, noting that Williams had been involved in supporting Barack Obama and appeared on a call organized by a pro-Harris group just weeks before the election.

Williams’ story adds to a growing list of allegations against the former president. Over the years, about two dozen women have accused Trump of sexual misconduct, ranging from groping to unwanted advances and inappropriate behavior.

Williams explained her decision to share her story after years of silence, saying she had wanted to avoid the public scrutiny that often follows women who accuse powerful men of misconduct. “I left the business and disappeared on purpose,” Williams said. “I love my private life and I didn’t want to face the kind of abuse I saw other women endure when they came forward.”

Despite her desire for privacy, Williams revealed the incident to close friends in the mid-2000s. One friend, who wished to remain anonymous, confirmed to The Guardian that Williams had confided in her about Trump groping her at Trump Tower. Another friend, Ally Gutwillinger, recalled a 2015 conversation where Williams showed her the Mar-a-Lago postcard and mentioned that Trump had groped her years before.

Reflecting on the incident, Williams said she believes it was part of a disturbing dynamic between Trump and Epstein, one that left her feeling humiliated. “I felt this seething rage from Epstein afterward. He looked at me and berated me, as if it was my fault,” Williams shared. She said Epstein’s reaction made her feel even more confused and disgusted.
