“I didn’t hide my race from Donald Trump. He knew,” Kara Young told The New York Times. “He would say, ‘You’re like Derek Jeter.’ And I would say, ‘Exactly.’”

She told the paper that she's never heard him make any sort of racist comments, but was left "horrified" by what he said about the deadly attack in Charlottesville.

During the campaign, the mom-of-two told the TV show Chasing News that the real estate tycoon is not a racist.

The two met at a party in the Hamptons in 1997. At the time, she was a model, gracing the pages of the Victoria's Secret catalog and countless magazines including Playboy in Germany.
