Nikki Haley slams rumours of Trump affair as 'disgusting'

None

US Ambassador Nikki Haley has slammed rumours that she was having an affair with President Donald Trump as "highly offensive" and "disgusting."

 

The rumours stem from author Michael Wolff of the bestseller Fire and Fury, who suggested in an interview that Trump was having an affair and that the liaison was with someone detailed in his book.

 

Wolff wrote in his book that Haley, the most high-profile woman in Trump's administration, was positioning herself as the president's heir apparent.

 

In an interview with Politico's Women Rule podcast on Thursday, Haley shot down talk of being romantically involved with the US president.

 

"It is absolutely not true," Haley said. "It is highly offensive, and it's disgusting."
