Former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger's name cropped up in Donald Trump's hush-money trial on Tuesday after porn star Stormy Daniels recalled their infamous meeting at a Lake Tahoe night club in 2006.
Trump is currently on trial in New York City over claims he falsified business records to conceal a hush-money payment to Daniels - whose real name is Stephanie Clifford - in an attempt to hide an alleged sexual encounter between the pair.
The adult-film actress took the stand on Tuesday to testify about the alleged $130,000 she received to keep quiet about her affair with the former US President, who was said to have been with Roethlisberger during one of their early meetings.
Daniels previously discussed her experience with Roethlisberger in her 2018 book 'Full Disclosure', claiming she became 'terrified' of him when he was asked by Trump to walk her back to her hotel room.
