Melania Trump gave an interview for the first time in two years. In it, the former First Lady reveals private details about her relationship with Donald Trump.
Former First Lady Melania Trump has decided to appear in front of the camera and give an interview for the first time in two years. The occasion is the publication of her memoirs on October 8th. The controversial, conservative US broadcaster Fox News published the conversation with the 54-year-old on Thursday. “It’s time for me to tell my story – and the truth,” says Melania Trump.
In the interview, the 54-year-old looks back, among other things, at the beginning of her relationship with Donald Trump. She reveals how unusual her first date with her now husband was. Because the two didn’t meet in a restaurant, café or cinema: the entrepreneur took her to a property that he was planning to buy. Apparently it wasn’t a problem for Melania: it was “very nice”.
“Because we were alone in the car for about an hour or an hour and a half. No other noises, no other people,” said Melania. “He was already known as a celebrity at the time, so it was really nice to just be alone with him.” Melania Trump immediately felt a connection to him. “I loved the vision he had. And the connection we had. It was very special.” What she loves about her husband is “his[en] Humor, his personality, his friendliness, he is very special. His positivity. His energy. It’s unbelievable,” enthuses Melania.
Melania also talks about her engagement to the entrepreneur in 2004 in the interview: “It was my birthday. And it was the Met Gala. All in one evening. We were already at home, both in gala outfits. Then he proposed made.” They married in January 2005. Their son Barron was born about a year later. For Melania Trump it is the only child; Donald Trump has a total of five children.
The couple did not have any more children, although Donald Trump apparently would have wanted more, as Melania revealed in the interview. “It was always perfect for me,” said the 54-year-old. Donald “encouraged her to have more.” “But I said that I’m completely happy with a child because it’s a very busy life. And I know how busy he is. And I’m responsible for everything. So it’s just perfect.”
According to Melania Trump, her husband only later shared his political ambitions with her. She didn’t know anything about it at the time of her engagement. “We didn’t talk about it at the time.” Only a little later did he mention that he wanted to get involved in politics. When asked what she thinks about her husband running for president again, Melania finds clear words: “I support him.”
In contrast to the 2016 presidential election, Melania Trump hardly appears this time. This time she didn’t give a speech at the Republican convention. She was also not present at the debate with Democrat Kamala Harris. Her conspicuous absence was discussed several times in the media. Not least because of this behavior, there is constant speculation about a marital crisis for the Trumps.
