The department said that Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, who published the book"Melania and Me" last month, had committed not to disclose information about President Donald Trump's wife that was gleaned from her position as a White House volunteer.
In that agreement, she was"specifically prohibited from publishing, reproducing or otherwise divulging any such information to any unauthorized person or entity in whole or in part." "Melania and Me: The Rise and Fall of My Friendship With the First Lady," purported to lift the veil off the 50-year-old ex-model of Slovenian origin who became the third wife of the real estate billionaire turned president.
Wolkoff fell out with the Trumps over a scandal related to millions of dollars that went unaccounted for in the president's inauguration in January 2017, which she helped organize.
