DONALD Trump's sexual abuse victim has said she is "overwhelmed with joy" for women across America after holding the former President to account.
E. Jean Carroll appeared on US television yesterday after a civil jury found Trump liable for sexually abusing and defaming her.
The writer, who was awarded €4.5million in damages, is one of over two dozen women who have accused Trump of sexual assault or harassment over the years - but the first to successfully sue him in court.
He has always denied their claims.
Yesterday Carroll, 79, said: "I am overwhelmed with joy and happiness and delight for the women in this country. This is not about the money. This is about getting my name back.
The former Elle magazine columnist explained why she did not report the 1996 incident to police decades ago, saying she had been "too ashamed" and "blamed herself".
