When supermodel Beverly Peele’s son Trey Peele was 11, his mother told him something shocking about his father. The sexual encounter she had had a decade prior with fashion mogul Peter Nygard that led to his birth was not consensual, she said. Nygard had raped her, according to Beverly Peele. It was a secret she had kept from almost everyone else. In 2020, as other allegations of sexual misconduct mounted against Nygard, Trey Peele urged her to go public with it. “I was like, ‘Mom, we need to speak up about it,’” Trey Peele, now 18, told “Dateline NBC” in an exclusive interview. “I think I’m OK with it as long as you’re OK with it,” he said to her. “‘And we could just go through this together.’” The model then said she struggled with the discovery that she had a child with Nygard. "I did not want to breastfeed. I didn't want to put the baby's smell on me," she said. "I hate saying that but it's the truth and it's because it's what Peter Nygard did to me … and the way everything went down." Peele also talked about the alleged sexual assault in the discovery+ documentary Unseamly: The Investigation of Peter Nygard, which examines the stories of several women who have accused the jailed fashion executive of sexual assault and sex trafficking.
