Stormy Daniels, the star witness in former President Donald Trump’s hush money trial, was very “emotional” about the guilty verdict reached by a Manhattan jury Thursday night, according to her lawyer.

Trump was found guilty of 34 counts of falsifying business records on Thursday, marking the first time a former president has been convicted of a felony.

Clark Brewster, the porn star and director’s lawyer, spoke to CNN’s Kaitlan Collins about the verdict. He said Daniels had a strong and emotional reaction when the news broke.

“I texted her and then she called and we spoke and she was really emotional. She was quite taken I think with the finality as much as anything. But she was really, really emotional,” he said.

He said she experienced a combination of many emotions, including empathy and the “realization” that it is now over.

Daniels testified earlier this month, describing intimate details about her affair with Trump in 2006. The trial was about a payment that Trump’s former “fixer” Michael Cohen made to Daniels, to the tune of $130,000, that Trump later reimbursed him for. The payment was allegedly to keep her from speaking about their affair in tabloids.

Her testimony was the first time she had seen the former president since 2007, and she wore a bulletproof vest to the courthouse out of fear about backlash over her testimony.

“She has great trust in the system and the fact that these jurors gave their time and listened to that evidence very attentively, as you know, that‘s to be commended and respected. But it could have gone either way and she understood that and I think she’s glad she testified. … It would have been like a half-eaten sandwich if the story never came out,” Brewster said.

Daniels’s husband, Barrett Blade, said earlier that the verdict is a “weight off her shoulders.”

Trump’s lawyers plan to appeal the verdict, and the former president is scheduled to be sentenced by Judge Juan Merchan on July 11, four days before the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.
