Fashion model Stacey Williams has come under scrutiny after making allegations against former President Donald Trump during a recent interview. 

In a video released on October 24, 2024, with The Guardian, Williams claimed that Trump groped her in 1993 during a visit to Jeffrey Epstein's infamous Upper East Side Manhattan mansion.

In the approximately five-minute interview, Williams recounted an unsettling encounter where Trump allegedly pulled her close and groped her. “He put his hands all over my breasts, my waist, my butt, and I froze,” she stated. However, internet users have raised doubts about the validity of her claims, particularly her assertion that the incident occurred at Epstein’s mansion in 1993.

Reports indicate that Epstein actually acquired the property in 1996, casting doubt on Williams' timeline. According to multiple sources, Epstein moved into the mansion that year, but it wasn’t until 2011 that it was confirmed he was the beneficiary of the property, which was gifted to him by Les Wexner, the CEO of L Brands. The mansion, valued at approximately $77 million, was transferred without any money changing hands and recorded as a $0 purchase.

In her interview, Williams elaborated that she first met Trump at a Christmas party in 1992. She expressed feelings of “disgust” and confusion regarding the alleged incident in 1993, reflecting on the shame it caused her. 

Additionally, she noted that Trump and Epstein appeared to be close friends, stating, “It became very clear then that he and Donald were really, really good friends and spent a lot of time together.” Williams also suggested a brief romantic relationship with Epstein during that period, indicating that he was interested in her when he introduced her to Trump.
