Ex-Playboy model says sorry to Melania
A former Playboy model apologised to US First Lady Melania Trump for a 10-month affair she claims she had with President Donald Trump that started with him offering her money after the first time they had sex.

Trump married Melania in 2005, and their son, Barron, was born in 2006.
