Trump faces another groping allegation, pageant queen claims 'he tried to lift my dress'

United States former president and Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has again been accused of groping, days after model Stacey Williams claimed that the business tycoon had touched her inappropriately in Trump Tower in 1993. Now while speaking exclusively to Daily Mail, beauty queen Beatrice Keul said that Trump took her to a hotel suite for a “private talk” in 1993 but as soon as he entered the room, he allegedly “jumped” on her and grabbed “her body everywhere.” Beatrice Keul had won the second position in the Miss Switzerland 1992 contest after which she caught Trump's attention. Keul said that she believes she was able to fight off because of her height and strength. "I think my size saved me," she said.

Trump American Dream Pageant had sent her an invitation and offered her an all-expense-paid trip to New York and Atlantic City for taking part in the contest. "Trump, as a brand, was quite something at that time. You could be blinded by all that. I didn't know it's a jungle there," she said. Speaking about her meeting with Trump, Keul said, "He said, 'Ah we finally meet, Miss Keul. How nice to meet you finally.' He was definitely excited. He stayed a long time. We talked for so long that everybody was staring at us. A good 10 minutes if not 15. I couldn't believe he was so fond of me." "He took me to the upper floors. It was one of the big suites. I thought Trump wanted to talk, as the other guy told me. I was confident, but I went with closed eyes. When I entered, he jumped on me. I just had time to turn. I was not prepared. I tried to do what I could to get rid of him," she added. Keul said that Trump groped her while she tried to stop him. "He kissed me on the lips and on the neck. He tried to lift my dress. He was grabbing and touching my body everywhere he could," she said. Watch: US Election 2024: Former Model Accuses Donald Trump of Groping Her "I'm very tall, that's what helped me a lot. I'm 185cm [6'1'] with a good 5-7cm shoes [2-3']. I think my size saved me. I tried everything I could. Finally, I said 'let's talk first' or something like that, then he slowed down. Then he held my hand, he kissed me, he asked me if I wanted to drink something, he asked me to sit down," she added. "I didn't know how to react. I had to breathe. I was thinking, how do I get out of here? Let's be nice, I thought. He asked me to agree to see him again. I said yes, because I didn't want trouble. He asked me if I'm mad, I said no. I had to find something diplomatic. I remember he was holding me, kissing me, he said 'I'll see you later," Keul further stated. National Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said that the accusations of Keul "are false" and claimed that they were planted so that people's attention could be distracted from accusations against Kamala Harris's husband Doug Emhoff. "Fake allegations like this are a disservice to women who are truly victims of assault, like the women in Doug Emhoff's past," claimed Levitt.
