Donald Trump certainly knows how to add some excitement to a gathering.
Rachel Uchitel alleges that Donald Trump once played a prank on her at a party held at Mar-a-Lago, seemingly in retaliation for her declining an invitation to appear on “The Apprentice.”
In a sneak peek of her upcoming podcast episode, exclusively obtained by Page Six, Uchitel claims that Trump hired a Tiger Woods impersonator to approach her and attempt to take a photo with her. Describing the prank as juvenile, Uchitel likens it to behavior one might expect from an eighth-grader.

“He hired someone that was a Tiger Woods impersonator to walk around the room, and try and get a photo with me,” the host claims in a sneak peek of her upcoming “Miss Understood with Rachel Uchitel” podcast episode exclusively obtained by Page Six.
She adds of the bad joke, “I mean, how dumb, like, we’re talking about someone in, like, eighth grade.”
Uchitel gained notoriety for her affair with golfer Tiger Woods during his marriage to Elin Nordegren. Following Woods’ divorce in 2010, Uchitel’s name became synonymous with scandal, which likely brought her to Trump’s attention.
Reflecting on her notoriety during that time, Uchitel recalls Trump personally reaching out to her, offering her a spot on “The Apprentice.” However, she declined the opportunity, opting instead to appear on “Celebrity Rehab” due to her connection with Dr. Drew.
According to Uchitel, Trump’s rejection allegedly stemmed from her decision to decline his offer, leading him to deny knowing her or ever speaking to her publicly. Uchitel expresses frustration at Trump’s reaction, labeling him as disrespectful for dismissing her simply because she chose another opportunity over his.
Despite the apparent snub, Trump later reached out to Uchitel to apologize and invited her to his New Year’s Eve dinner at Mar-a-Lago, where he attempted the impersonator prank.
Uchitel highlights Trump’s history of engaging in feuds with public figures, including Rosie O’Donnell and Jimmy Kimmel, suggesting that Trump’s actions may stem from an inability to handle criticism or perceived slights.
While Trump has a reputation for dishing out criticism, Uchitel implies that he may struggle to handle similar treatment directed towards him. However, Trump’s representative did not immediately respond to Page Six’s request for comment regarding Uchitel’s claims.
“Miss Understood with Rachel Uchitel” releases new episodes every Monday and Thursday night.
