Donald Trump had a decades-old picture of his ex-wife Marla Maples (in a bikini) on his desk, underneath a newspaper and a taco bowl when he posted his now infamous Cinco de Mayo tweet on Thursday.
And Marla exclusively shared her reaction to being in Donald’s snap, which showed him eating his lunch, with Access Hollywood’s Billy Bush on Friday.
“I gotta tell you, I was getting a lot of tweets the last 12 hours. It sort of caught me by surprise,” Marla told Billy exclusively, when he asked her for her reaction to being spotted in the pic.

“Is he checking back in? Just looking for old time’s sake? Reminiscing? A little memory lane? What was going on there, [do] you think?” Billy asked.
“Poor guy’s doing some innocent reading in People magazine and look what happened,” Marla said.

Marla revealed Donald’s tweet solved a two-decades-old mystery.
“I just want to tell you that those placemats that he’s eating on, I’ve been looking for for about 20 years,” she laughed.
Billy went on to ask Marla if due to being a health nut herself, if she would have preferred more vegetables in Donald’s lunch.
“You know, the vegetables are the most important. So, he’s doing better, but he’s got a little ways to go,” she said.
On Thursday, Donald made headlines when he tweeted, “Happy #CincoDeMayo! The best taco bowls are made in Trump Tower Grill. I love Hispanics!” alongside a photo of himself.
