UPDATE: Gennifer Flowers, who had a relationship with former President Bill Clinton, may not be invited to the presidential debate after all.

Donald Trump's campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, weighed in on the controversy Sunday.

"We have not invited her formally, and we do not expect her to be there as a guest of the Trump campaign," Conway said on CNN's "State of the Union."

"Gennifer Flowers will not be there," Republican vice presidential nominee and Indiana Gov. Mike Pence said. "The tweet was actually mocking effort by Hillary Clinton and her campaign to distract voters."

Meanwhile, on Fox News, Trump's running mate said Trump's tweet was just a joke.

ORIGINAL STORY: Hillary Clinton's campaign is firing back after rival Donald Trump threatened to bring a woman who had a relationship with former President Bill Clinton to Monday's presidential debate.

According to Politico, the Republican presidential nominee tweeted Saturday, "If dopey Mark Cuban of failed Benefactor fame wants to sit in the front row, perhaps I will put Jennifer [sic] Flowers right alongside of him!"

That tweet was later deleted and reposted with the correct spelling of Gennifer Flowers' name.

"Hillary Clinton plans on using the debate to discuss the issues that make a difference in people's lives," Palmieri said, according to Politico. "It's not surprising that Donald Trump has chosen a different path."

The Associated Press reported that it was "unclear whether Flowers would actually attend."
