Danity Kane singer Aubrey O’Day met Donald Trump Jr. when she competed on “The Celebrity Apprentice” in 2011, and she soon became one of his biggest celebrity admirers. In fact, O’Day claimed to Page Six that she and Donald Jr. had an affair while he was still married to Vanessa Trump, whom he divorced in 2018. O’Day once considered Don Jr. her “soulmate,” but she was not a fan of the way he started behaving when Donald Trump decided to run for president. “I saw him choose a life that was inauthentic,” she said.
O’Day revealed that she wasn’t convinced her ex had really swallowed that red MAGA pill, but even if he were faking his far-right political beliefs, the change had been a tough pill for her to swallow. “The man that he’s become is a ridiculous joke,” she told Hollywood Life in 2022. “And I’m so sad about who he’s become with his platform. I don’t think he had much of a choice.” The star also revealed that it took going to therapy for her to realize that the old Donald Jr. was gone for good.

On a since-deleted “Mea Culpa” podcast appearance in July 2023 (via Out), O’Day told Donald Sr.’s ex-attorney, Michael Cohen, that Don Jr. allegedly once had sex with her inside a restroom at a gay club. But these days, she’s been seeing him post homophobic and transphobic content on his Instagram page. “There is no way that I could have ever loved somebody like what we see today,” O’Day said.
