Donald Trump is said to be nervous about claims he had an affair with a porn star as the actress lawyer revealed plans to bring him to court.
NBC News White House Correspondent Kristen Walker reported Wednesday: Now Mr Trump hasnt commented publicly on the controversy, but privately hes been expressing his concern about it to top aides.

She made the revelation hours after Stormy Daniels lawyer Michael Avenatti asked permission from a federal judge to depose the President.
He wants to make Trump and his personal lawyer Michael Cohen answer questions about how and why Stormy was made to sign a non-disclosure agreement for $130,000 under oath.

Avenatti told NBC Wednesday: We are confident that after applying Supreme Court precedent from the Clinton matter, the Court will order the depositions and the trial to proceed.
We expect to be placing the president and his fixer under oath in the coming months.
Avenatti and Daniels – real name Stephanie Clifford – want to get to the bottom of why she was ordered to sign the NDA in October 2016, 11 days before the presidential election.
Cohen asked her to do so, and paid her $130,000 in return, but says the cash was his own money, and that President Trump was unaware of the agreement.
He has always denied having a one-night stand with the adult actress after they met at a Lake Tahoe golf tournament in 2006, a year after he married his wife Melania.
Stormy says she slept with Trump in the hope of furthering her career.
She told 60 Minutes on Sunday that she was threatened by a thug in 2011 after Cohen discovered she was planning to sell the story of their affair to a magazine.
Cohen denies any involvement in that alleged threat.
