In a whirlwind of romance, porn star Stormy Daniels, born Stephanie Clifford, found herself the center of attention.
But this time it wasn’t for her on-screen escapades, but rather a lavish gift from her fourth husband, adult film actor Barrett Blade.
According to documents uncovered by The Post, Blade, 50, in a grand gesture of affection, shelled out $535,000 in June 2022 to secure Daniels’ “dream home” months before they got married.
The property is a sprawling 2.2-acre horse farm in Dunnellon, Florida.
The home, with three bedrooms spread over nearly 3,000 square feet, has become the couple’s sanctuary.
A gated and fenced estate, it welcomes visitors with an open floor plan adorned with tile floors, vaulted ceilings, skylights and arched windows that bathe the space in natural light, according to the previous listing.
Daniels, 45, in a December 2022 social media post, gushed about her marital bliss, saying, “Being married to my best friend and moving into my dream house has made 2022 a difficult year to beat, but I bet this guy will somehow manage to outperform. himself! Here’s to another 24 years, Mr. Barrett.
The master suite has private access to a lanai and a spa-like bathroom with a Jacuzzi tub and double sinks.
Outside there is a swimming pool and a courtyard with a fireplace.
The property also includes a two-stall barn with a tack room and a fenced pasture.
But against a backdrop of reassurance, Daniels found herself mired in controversy once again.
She’s in the news this week as former President Donald Trump goes on trial for falsifying business records, allegedly to conceal “hush money” payments to the adult film star ahead of the 2016 general election in subject of an alleged affair. His testimony Tuesday nearly derailed the proceedings.
Trump’s legal team, led by attorney Todd Blanche, objected to the salacious details Daniels disclosed about 2006 events involving the former president, arguing they threatened the integrity of the trial.
Judge Juan Merchan, although sympathetic to the defense’s concerns, ultimately ruled against a mistrial. Instead, he chose to give a restrictive instruction regarding Daniels’ prior testimony, cautioning jurors about its application.
Merchan told Trump’s lawyers that he recognized the testimony went into “too much detail.”
“That said,” Merchan continued, “I don’t think we’ve reached the point where a mistrial is in order.”
