Another #FakeNews story debunked. On Friday The Wall Street Journal reported that porn star Stormy Daniels received a payment of $130,000 arranged by Trump and Michael Cohen, Trump's laywer. According to the report, Daniels received the payment "as part of an agreement that precluded her from publicly discussing an alleged sexual encounter with Mr. Trump."
Once the first story like this popped, others began to follow suit. The Daily Beast published a report about a second porn star, Jessica Drake, was also being "silenced" by a non-disclosure agreement. Drake had accused Trump of sexual misconduct back in October 2016.

Per The Daily Beast:
“Jessica’s NDA blankets any and every mention of Trump, so she’s legally unable to comment,” her publicist, Josh Ortiz, informed The Daily Beast. “Jessica signed a non-disclosure agreement after her allegations of misconduct, and she can’t do as much as peep his name publicly.”
On Saturday evening, following the initial publication of this story, Ortiz radically changed his tune.
“I made an incorrect assumption due to a grave misunderstanding regarding Jessica Drake’s ability to speak or comment about matters relating to President Trump," Ortiz said in a statement supplied by Drake's lawyer, Gloria Allred. “I have never been told directly, or indirectly, Jessica Drake signed a Non Disclosure Agreement or reached any settlement in regards to any interactions with President Trump. My misunderstanding resulted in incorrect information being provided to The Daily Beast and undue stress to Jessica Drake, for which I am truly sorry.”

Trump was accused of greeting Drake with a huge and a kiss"without asking permission" back in 2006. Additionally she claims he offered her $10,000 for sex.
“This is not acceptable behavior for anyone, much less a presidential candidate,” Drake said of the alleged exchange of the two.
