“Murphy Brown” star Candice Bergen didn’t think much of her time with Donald Trump. “I was 18, the first year of college,” Bergen told her “Book Club” co-stars, actors Jane Fonda, Mary Steenburgen, and Diane Keaton (via People). “I was home by 9:00. I mean, it was really a dud.”
Bergen recalled on an episode of “Harry” that she only went on the date because she didn’t have anything better to do. “[Donald] was a nice-looking guy … it was a blind date. He called me in the dorm, and I was bored,” she said (via EW). Apparently, the most memorable part of the evening was Trump’s ensemble. “He picked me up, he was wearing a burgundy three-piece suit, with burgundy patent leather boots, and he was in a burgundy limousine,” Bergen added.

But while Bergen was indifferent, Trump was anything enamoured. “[Candice] was so beautiful. She was dating guys from Paris, France, who were 35 years old, the whole thing. I did make the move,” he said in a 2015 interview with The Boston Globe. While Trump was running in the 2016 presidential election, Bergen made it clear that their shared history didn’t mean she’d be voting for him. Still, even though she backed Hillary Clinton, Bergen acknowledged that Trump has been “very nice” to her ever since their date night.
