A string of American women have accused comb-over king Donald Trump of sexual assault and inappropriate behaviour during recent weeks in the increasingly acrimonious presidential election campaign.
Now, a prominent British woman could be about to step forward and make her own ‘bombshell’ claims.
Broadcaster Selina Scott, who presented an ITV documentary about Trump in 1995, is said by friends to be on the point of revealing exactly what went on when the cameras stopped rolling.
‘It will be a huge scoop that she will tell the American broadcaster NBC,’ one of her friends told me. ‘She is normally discreet, but is about to drop a bombshell about Trump’s sexual advances to her.’
Most revealing is what really happened when the blond tycoon invited Selina to look at his ‘seduction pad’ — the big, white leather bed on board his private jet.
She has previously said of the encounter: ‘Even by the extraordinary standards of Donald Trump, it was a creepy chat-up line. He showed me his white leather double bed. “I like beautiful things,” he purred seductively. “That’s why I like you so much.”
Selina, 65, the former ‘golden girl’ of the BBC, is understood to have signed a five-figure deal this week for NBC to broadcast again the 60-minute ITV documentary, as Trump’s White House bid becomes ever deeper mired in sleaze.

The programme gives a fascinating early insight into Trump’s lavish lifestyle, his sexist attitude to women and his conflicting boasts about how successful he was as a businessman.
Selina was flown around the States by Trump in his private jet and given unprecedented access to the future presidential candidate. Trump, 70, was so angry at revelations in the programme that he allegedly sent her abusive letters for a decade until she warned him she would take legal action unless he stopped stalking her.
