A second beauty pageant queen has come forward claiming Donald Trump also shamed her over her weight by telling her to 'suck her gut in' during the Miss Universe pageant.
Australia's Jodie Seal competed in the Miss Universe pageant with Alicia Machado, and now she is backing up her former competitor's claims about Trump.
In an interview with Inside Edition, Seal claims the Republican presidential candidate mocked women about their bodies regularly who were participating in the pageant the year he took over the competition, as she called him a 'Mussolini-' grade tyrant.
Seal claims that Trump even directly targeted her, by also shaming her for her weight.

Tyrant? In an interview with Inside Edition, Seal (above) claims Trump mocked women about their bodies regularly who were participating in the pageant, as she called him a 'Mussolini-' grade tyrant
Harsh?: Seal said Trump (pictured above on Wednesday) called some 'girls some pretty horrible names' during the pageant contest in 1996
'He was calling some girls some pretty horrible names,' she said.
'But he said to me, myself, 'suck your gut in.' He was always wanting us to be sexy, wear swimsuits out.'
Seal described Trump as 'very brash,' 'very sexist,' 'not at all nurturing' and said he was 'very scathing.'
'He'd walk by while we were eating. He put a lot of the girls down. It was supposed to be the time of our lives,' she said. 'He would make us exercise every day.'
In the interview that aired on Wednesday night on Inside Edition, Seal defended Machado.
'She weighed less than I did, during the pageant, after the pageant. There's no way she was big,' Seal said.
Sexist?: Seal (above) described Trump as 'very brash,' 'very sexist,' 'not at all nurturing' and said he was 'very scathing.'
'I really feel for her. She was meant to be the most beautiful woman in the world – Miss Universe - and she was treated with no respect.'
However, Miss Sweden 2014, Camilla Hansson, told Inside Edition that she had a better experience with Trump and described him as the 'perfect gentleman'.
Trump has yet to comment about Seal's claims against him, which came to light after Machado came forward with her allegations against Trump.
After Machado put on weight as Miss Universe, Trump, who was the new pageant owner, invited reporters to watch her work out – encouraging her to stay the course and avoid losing her title.
Machado said this week that the process was insulting and claimed Trump called her 'Miss Piggy'.
Earlier on Wednesday, Trump went after Machado while appearing on Fox News before a campaign rally in Wisconsin.
The billionaire brought up an incident where the former Miss Universe allegedly threatened to kill a Venezuelan judge.
Trump was asked about Machado repeatedly during an appearance with host Bill O'Reilly, just two days after he referenced her weight gain after Hillary Clinton brought up the fat shaming during a presidential debate.
Trump immediately mentioned damaging reports, but at first said he didn't want to say anything negative.
'A lot of things are coming out about her. I'm not gonna say anything. I couldn't care less,' Trump said.
'I really just don't know her,' he added.
But pressed by O'Reilly, Trump brought up potentially damaging information in Machado's background.

'Now a lot of things are coming out that I wasn't aware of, like they say that she threatened the life of a judge and got involved in all sorts of problems,' Trump said. He referenced other unexplained reports that he said came out just 20 minutes before the live televised interview.
'If that turns out to be true, a lot of the things that are turning out to be, perhaps, true, I think it's going to make Hillary look extremely bad,' Trump said.
Clinton used Machado's experience as one of the most effective hits of the presidential debate.
'He loves beauty contests, supporting them and hanging around them,' she said of Trump. 'And he called this woman 'Miss Piggy.' Then he called her 'Miss Housekeeping,' because she was Latina. Donald, she has a name,' Clinton said, before saying Machado was now a citizen who would vote.
