She has said she came to America in 1996, but the nude photo shoots took place in 1995, according to the political news site.

In a statement, the GOP nominee’s wife said Thursday: “Let me set the record straight: I have at all times been in full compliance with the immigration laws of this country. Any allegation to the contrary is simply untrue.”

She noted she had become a citizen in 2006, and said there was “inaccurate reporting and misinformation” about her immigration status in 1996.
