The White House says it will support a forensic analysis of the signature on a letter allegedly given by Donald Trump to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Mr Trump has denied giving the former financier a letter that appears in a birthday book for Epstein with the crude sketch of a woman's body and a note about secrets.

Democrats on the US House Oversight Committee released the letter on social media to the public after it was delivered by Epstein's estate.

The White House, and Mr Trump, have both denied its authenticity.

"It's not my signature and it's not the way I speak," Trump told reporters before dining out in the US capital on Tuesday.
