Emma Thompson Could Have Been Mrs Donald Trump, But She Turned Down Date In 1997

Emma Thompson, a British Hollywood actress, was once asked out for a date by President Donald Trump in 1997. The "Love Actually" actress spoke about the incident on SVT, a Swedish news outlet, Thursday. She revealed that soon after her divorce from Irish actor, Kenneth Branagh, and between Trump's marriages to Marla Maples and Melania, Trump had asked Thompson out.

In 1997, Thompson was on the Universal Studios lot to shoot for her movie "Primary Colors," which was about the White House and was inspired by former President Bill Clinton's 1992 presidential race. She told the interviewer that one day when she was in her trailer, she got a phone call from Trump. She said: "'Hi, it's Donald Trump here.' I said 'Really? Can I help you?' And he said 'Yeah, I just, you know, I wondered if I could offer you some accommodation in one of my Trump Towers. They're really comfortable,' And I said, 'Why are you offering me somewhere to stay in my trailer in ... What?'"

Thompson claimed that Trump asked her out for dinner. She added: "I didn't know what to do with myself. I was on my own, and I just said, 'OK, well I'll get back to you! Thank you so much for ringing."

Although Thompson never called Trump back but she wished on the show that she did, she could have been the first lady today.
