Karen McDougal now lives a secluded private life in Arizona. Karen has been the center of attraction as Trump is indicated by Manhattan Grand Jury.

McDougal also had an affair with the former president as we discussed earlier but her account differs from Trump's other companions. She was paid by a media company for her story but her story was never published.

The Sun claims the tactic to be "Catch and Kill" in journalism. It is a practice in media to catch a possible damaging story and suppress it to minimize the potential damage to someone or something. 

According to Inside Edition, she was last seen on television when she spoke with CNN in 2018. Since then, Karen has lived a secluded life alone in Arizona with her pets. The story adds, it is unclear if McDougal will testify against Donald Trump in the case that is being overseen by Judge Juan Merchan.

Although she might not be active on television screens, she is fairly active on social media. Karen recently shared an image from New York City on March 26, 2023. She also shared glimpses of attending the Super Bowl with her friends and followers on Facebook in February 2023.

She also updates her social media followers on her mother's dementia frequently. Karen appears to have left the glamorous showbiz industry partly and has taken up the responsibility of advocating for different health concerns including Demtia and breast cancer.

According to her personal website, she is now available for public speaking, writing columns for magazines, and spokesmodel.
