- President Donald Trump's niece, Mary L. Trump, has written a tell-all book about her uncle. It's scheduled to publish on July 28.
- Publisher Simon & Schuster said the book will be a "revelatory, authoritative portrait of Donald J. Trump and the toxic family that made him."
- Mary Trump is known to have been on bad terms with her uncle Donald for at least 20 years, when they were involved in a public legal battle against each other. She has largely stayed out of the limelight since.
- According to state records she is a registered Democrat, and an unverified Twitter account bearing her name includes tweets supportive of Hillary Clinton.
- Members of the Trump family are trying to block the release of her book, but a New York judge recently granted Simon & Schuster permission to release it. However, there is still a temporary injunction on Mary Trump herself.
- Here's everything we know about the president's niece, the latest updates about her book, and what she reportedly says in it.

She is the daughter of Fred Trump Jr., the president's older brother and once-heir apparent to the Trump family's real-estate business. Her mother is Linda Clapp, a flight attendant whom "Freddy" met while training to be a pilot.

Fred Trump Jr. and Clapp married in 1962, and had two children: Fred Trump III and Mary.
Both Mary and her brother were named after their paternal grandparents, Fred Trump Sr. and his Scottish immigrant wife, Mary Anne MacLeod Trump.
The couple's marriage was short-lived. They divorced in 1970 after eight years of marriage, as Freddy's alcoholism got more and more out of control.

Freddy died at the age of 42 in 1981 due to complications from alcoholism. He was considered a black sheep of the family for not taking an interest in the family's real-estate business.
