Marla Maples Warned Mother of Dangers at 1994 Mar-a-Lago Party

In a disturbing revelation, new documents have surfaced detailing a warning allegedly issued by Marla Maples to a mother regarding the safety of young models at a 1994 event held at the Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach. Sandra Coleman claims that during the gathering, which was attended by high-profile figures including Donald Trump and the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, Maples advised her to keep her daughter, Tina Davis, away from the men present, particularly Trump himself.

The incident reportedly took place in a bathroom during a lavish party where teenage models had been invited. According to an account published in the New York Times, Coleman recalls an unsettling atmosphere, noting that many of the young women were encouraged to “dress sexy” and were approached by older men throughout the evening. At the time, Tina was only 14 and had recently signed with Ford Models, making her one of several young girls scouted for the event.

During their encounter, Maples allegedly took Coleman by the hands and warned her, “Whatever you do, do not let her around any of these men, and especially my husband. Protect her.” This comment raises questions about the environment at Mar-a-Lago and the awareness of those close to Trump regarding potential dangers.

Maples, who was married to Trump from 1993 to 1999, has since denied the specific wording of the conversation but affirmed her commitment to protecting young women. She stated, “I am sure I didn’t specifically say that about my daughter’s father,” indicating a level of ambiguity regarding her remarks.

The gathering in question has since come under scrutiny as part of ongoing investigations into Epstein’s activities. New documents released on December 19, 2025, have reignited discussions about Epstein’s connections with Trump and other elite figures. In one leaked email, Epstein suggested that Trump “knew about the girls,” although the identities of those mentioned remain unclear.

Mary Trump, the president’s niece, has publicly criticized her uncle and confirmed seeing Epstein at the wedding of Trump and Maples in 1993. Reflecting on her experiences, she remarked, “I never met him, thankfully, but I have had the great misfortune of being in the same room with Jeffrey Epstein… which is alarming enough.”

Despite numerous photographs from the early 1990s showing Trump and Epstein socializing, the president has consistently denied any involvement with Epstein’s illicit activities. Nonetheless, as these historical accounts resurface, they continue to cast a shadow over Trump’s public image and raise questions about the culture among the elite of the time.

The recollections from Coleman serve as a stark reminder of the lengths some parents felt compelled to go to protect their children from the potential dangers associated with power and influence. As more information comes to light, the narrative surrounding the events of that evening at Mar-a-Lago highlights the complex dynamics of privilege, protection, and predation within high society.
