Kathie Lee Gifford Shares Story of Trump Protecting Her from Dangerous Stalker in 1993

Gifford recalls how Donald Trump provided his helicopter and security to safeguard her and her newborn daughter after an FBI warning of a death threat.

• Kathie Lee Gifford revealed that in 1993 Donald Trump helped protect her and her six-week-old daughter from a dangerous stalker while she was traveling to host the Miss America pageant in Atlantic City.
• The FBI had informed Gifford's late husband, Frank Gifford, about a death threat from a man described as a 'psychopathic murderer' who had previously raped and tortured his own aunt.
• Frank Gifford contacted Trump, who owned the Miss America franchise, seeking assistance; Trump offered his personal helicopter and security to ensure Kathie Lee and her daughter’s safety.
• Gifford recounted that she was unaware of the threat at the time and only realized the extent of the danger after seeing a newspaper headline about the death threat during her stay in Atlantic City.
• The stalker was apprehended by the FBI shortly after the pageant, and Gifford expressed lifelong gratitude to Trump for his actions during the ordeal.
