Juliet Huddy, a former Fox News anchor, has confessed that Donald Trump once tried to kiss her in an elevator around the time he married Melania. She apparently received a settlement after making a complaint against Bill O’Reilly, who also tried to kiss her at Trump Tower in 2005.

Juliet now hosts a radio show on WABC, and as she said on Morning!!! with Bill Shulz, after she turned Trump away in the elevator he went on her show and said to the audience, “I hit on her but she blew me off.”

“He took me for lunch at Trump Tower, just us two,” Juliet said. “He said goodbye to me in an elevator while his security guy was there, rather than kiss me on the cheek he leaned in to kiss me on the lips. I wasn’t offended, I was kind of like, ‘Oh my god’.”

She added, “I was surprised that he went for the lips. But I didn’t feel threatened … he took me out to lunch to talk about maybe me doing something with ‘The Apprentice.’ He used to watch ‘Fox & Friends,’ the show I was hosting on the weekend. Whatever, everything was fine. It was a weird moment. He never tried anything after that, and I was never alone with him.”

“Trump was a guest and he came on stage, He said, to the audience and producers, not on camera, ‘I tried hitting on her but she blew me off.’ He was laughing,” she said of the moment he was a guest. “At the time I was not offended by it, I thought he was a single man and leaned in for a kiss… maybe he thought, ‘She’s been out to lunch with me and maybe she is interested.’”

Re: @PageSix story: Yes, it’s true. And though I’m offended by his comments on ‘other matters’ – as I said on @77WABCradio & @BillSchulz‘s show yesterday – I was neither threatened nor offended in elevator. End of story. Now, plz let me get back to @TheCrownNetflix.
