During a recent appearance on the Hodgetwins Podcast, media personality Megyn Kelly made controversial remarks about former President Donald Trump, including renewed references to long-standing personal allegations.

Kelly stated that Trump has been unfaithful in all of his marriages and discussed his past relationship history, including his affair with Marla Maples while still married to his first wife, Ivana Trump.The most sensitive portion of her comments involved her reference to a decades-old allegation connected to Ivana Trump’s 1990 divorce deposition.In that legal proceeding, Ivana Trump described a violent sexual encounter with her then-estranged husband, using the term “rape” under oath.

However, she later clarified her statement, saying she did not intend for the term to be interpreted in a literal or criminal sense and subsequently distanced herself from that characterization during Trump’s 2015 presidential campaign, calling the allegation “totally without merit.” Donald Trump has consistently and strongly denied the accusation.

Kelly emphasized that she could not personally verify the claim and acknowledged uncertainty about its validity while still referencing it in the context of criticizing Trump’s public comments about others’ personal lives.Her remarks were made in response to Trump’s recent criticism of former counterterrorism official Joe Kent’s remarriage after the death of his wife.

The comments have drawn attention due to Kelly’s previous proximity to Trump and conservative media circles, as well as the ongoing political sensitivity surrounding Trump’s legal and personal controversies.

The article also notes Trump’s past criminal conviction related to falsifying business records in connection with a hush money payment, which he disputes in terms of intent and awareness.
