Billy Bush, the TV personality who appears on the infamous Access Hollywood tape that captured Donald Trump being an absolute pig about women, has penned a heartfelt op-ed for the New York Times clarifying the events that took place back in 2005.

The op-ed comes in the wake of reports that Trump has started to deny that it was his voice bragging about “grabbing [women] by the pussy“. The NYT reported that Trump “suggested to a senator earlier this year that it was not authentic, and repeated that claim to an advisor more recently” (this is despite the fact that during his presidential campaign, Trump formally apologised for his actions on the tape).
