(Bloomberg) -- The Telegraph agreed to pay U.S. First Lady Melania Trump "substantial" damages after running an article in its magazine a week ago that it said included "a number of false statements" and shouldn't have been published.

The British newspaper said "The Mystery of Melania," the cover story of its Jan. 19 edition of the magazine, it made erroneous claims about her family and career. The article can no longer be found its website. In an explanation titled "Melania Trump -- An Apology," the newspaper wrote that the first lady's father was not "a fearsome presence and did not control the family." It also said she didnt leave her studies in design and architecture at university due to an exam, but because she wanted to pursue a career as a model. It also said it inaccurately stated she was "struggling" as a model when she met Donald Trump, now the president.
