Michael Cohen reportedly negotiated a $1.6 million payment to a former Playboy model who said a top RNC fundraiser impregnated her

President Donald Trump's longtime personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, negotiated a $1.6 million payment to a former Playboy model who says a top Republican National Committee official named Elliott Broidy got her pregnant, The Wall Street Journal reported Friday.

According to The Journal, the deal was negotiated late last year and blocks the woman from disclosing details of her relationship with Broidy. The first payment was due on December 1, the report says.

Broidy told the newspaper he had a consensual relationship with the woman.

"At the end of our relationship, this woman shared with me that she was pregnant," he said. "She alone decided that she did not want to continue with the pregnancy and I offered to help her financially during this difficult period."

Broidy, who is married, is a close friend of Trump's and works on the RNC with Cohen.
