Yet another former pageant queen, 53-year-old Beatrice Keul claimed she was groped by Donald Trump everywhere in her body after she was invited to a suite at his New York hotel for a 'private talk'. "I think my size saved me," Keul said to Daily Mail about the 1993 incident. The report said Keul is coming forward now with the allegation because she discovered all the documentation. Trump campaign's national press secretary Karoline Leavitt said Keul's accusations are false and planted to distract from the accusations against Kamala Harris' 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," Levitt said.
According to the report, Keul attracted Donald Trump's attention when she won second place in the Miss Switzerland 1992 pageant in Zurich and reached the final round of the Miss Europe competition in Istanbul that year.
Keul said she received an invitation from Donald Trump American Dream pageant, offering an all-expense-paid trip to New York and Atlantic city to participate in that contest. "When you are from Switzerland, the US is a big wow. Then you think about New York, that's a second wow. And then comes the name Trump. Wow again".
"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."
"Ah we finally meet, Miss Keul. How nice to meet you finally," Keul recollected Donald Trump's first words to here where he mispronounced her name as 'cool'.
"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," she said.
There was a press luncheon after which Keul was asked by Trump staff to stay back and she was then taken to the upper floors. "I thought Trump wanted to talk, as the other guy told me...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...he kissed on my lips and on the neck. He tried to lift my dress. He was grabbing and touching my body everywhere he could."
"I'm very tall, that's what helped me a lot...I think my size saved me," she said adding that she managed the situation by saying 'let's talk first'. And that deterred Trump who slowed down and asked her whether she wanted to drink something.
After half-an-hour chat, "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," she said.
