    Just days after his wife filed for divorce, a new report has emerged that Donald Trump Jr. may have smushed Danity Kane Star Aubrey O'Day back in 2011. According to Page Six, a source has revealed the two had an affair during the filming of Celebrity Apprentice.

    Trump Jr. "pursued [Aubrey]. It was him who chased her," a source told the site. "He told her that his marriage was already in the process of dissolving." At the time, his wife, Vanessa, was pregnant with their third child.

    According to Page Six, Don Jr. told Vanessa that he planned to leave her for O'Day, but Trump Sr. stepped in and told him to "knock it off." Effective!

    Five years later, O'Day mysteriously did the tell-tale tweet-and-delete on election night, posting: "My story I didn’t tell is worth millions now." TELL US, AUBREY!

    But per Page Six, the Danity Kane singer took the 2011 breakup hard, which the paper revealed in a magnificently shady way:

    However, sources say that O’Day was truly in love with Don Jr., that she never sought money either to tell her story or to keep quiet, and that she was never paid by the Trump family. Suggesting an unusual taste in men, she later went on to date “Jersey Shore” star Pauly D.

    Honestly, the perfect way to address the whole thing.

    Meanwhile, Vulture has raised the question of O'Day's 2013 banger "DJT," a song about an ex that may or may not have the same initials as her maybe or maybe not ex-boyfriend Donald Trump Jr. Below, the lyrics via Genius.

    You can say it was all a fucking fairytale
    Or you can say it was real
    But I need to know and you know

    Whatever the truth is defines the reality of you and I forever
    And I need to be able to define that before I can walk away
    I thought it was forever at the time but maybe I was lying to myself
    Is that what you want?
    You want to believe that everything with me was a lie? A fantasy?
    And you want to go back and live in the life that you had have forever?
    I don't know, I couldn't do what I said I would do
    So that answered the question for me
    I'll always want you and always wonder about it
    But it doesn't matter because I have to stay here
    What made you stop believing in our world?
    You know, I think probably the loss of the other world
    I'm torn between two worlds both of which I wanted

    I hate me for loving you, hate you for letting our love die
    I hate me for loving you, hate you for letting our love die
    I hate me for loving you, hate you for letting our love die
    I hate me for, I hate me for, hate you for letting our love die

    Tell me you love me, I need you to do that
    No, you don't
    Yeah I do, I need to know it before I walk away
    No, that's exactly what's stopping you from walking away
    No it wouldn't, that's exactly what would help me walk away
    You know everything anyway
    You're the only one who ever knew my heart
    I have to move on, I need your help
    I can't believe that this was all a lie
    You have to tell me you love me
    I don't 'cause you're a fucking pain in my ass
    Tell me you love me and I won't talk to you anymore
    I'll leave you alone
    Look, it doesn't matter, it can't matter
    The truth will only kill us both
    You have to say it once to yourself and to me and then I'll go
    I love you
    Talk to you later

    Just another day, another drama!
