President Trump denied saying he did not want to appear in photographs with his daughter Tiffany because she was perceived as being overweight.

Trump said he had called his daughter, but the two had not yet spoken.

“She’s going to be calling me back as soon as we get to Camp David,” he told reporters as he left the White House on Friday. “It’s just absolutely false. She’s a wonderful person and she studies so hard. She’s a great student. She’s a great person.”

“Tiffany is great. I love Tiffany,” Trump said.

Trump’s 25-year-old daughter is entering her second year of law school at Georgetown in Washington, D.C. She is the president’s only child from his marriage to Marla Maples, and she spent most of her childhood growing up on the west coast.

A report from Politico on Friday said Trump’s personal assistant Madeleine Westerhout, who was fired Thursday, told a small group of reporters at an off-the-record dinner that Trump had made critical comments about Tiffany’s weight. Westerhout, 28, also joked that Trump could not pick Tiffany out of a crowd.

Trump called Westerhout’s comments “hurtful to some people” and said the situation was “unfortunate.”

“She called me. She was very upset. She was very down. She said she was drinking a little bit, and she was with reporters and everything she said was off the record,” he said.
