Melania Trump first met her future husband at a Kit Kat Club event during the New York Fashion Week in 1998, when the famous Italian businessman Paolo Zampolli, who helped her get a work visa to the U.S. brought a friend, Donald Trump. He was with a date that night, but when he saw Melania, he immediately wanted to know more about her.

One of Melania’s friends, Edit Molnar, spoke of that night and explained that Donald asked Melania for her number, but she didn’t give it to him because he wasn’t alone. “Melania said, ‘He’s here with a woman. I am absolutely not giving him my number,’” Molnar told
New York Post. “She wouldn’t even consider it. Donald did all the work.”
Melania also spoke of the night she first met Donald Trump. “He wanted my number,” she told
Tatler. “But he was on a date, so of course I didn’t give it to him. I said, ‘I am not giving you my number; give me yours and I will call you.’ If I give him my number, I’m just one of the women he calls.”
After they met again, one thing led to another and the two started a relationship. In 2001, at the time Melania got her green card, she was already living at Trump Tower.
They tied the knot some three years later, and in 2006, they welcomed their son Barron Trump.
Melania did end her career as a model, but she never stopped working, regardless of her husband’s enormous wealth.
When Donald Trump became a president, Melania was very supportive of her husband and executed the role of a First Lady just perfectly.
In her new book titled
I’ll Take Your Questions Now, former senior aide and press secretary to Donald Trump, Stephanie Grisham, revealed plenty of juicy details about the Trumps.
For one, Grisham writes about what it was like to be working for the former First Lady, Melania Trump. She also recalls one specific moment when Trump went mad over his wife’s “mistake,” which made him target of wide criticism. Namely, on her way to a migrant housing facility in Texas, Melania wore a jacket with the text “I REALLY DON’T CARE, DO U?”

In an attempt to help improve the image of her husband’s administration, Melania’s wrong choice of wardrobe only made things worse, and she eventually abandoned the program.
I’ll Take Your Questions Now also reveals that some of the staff working for the Secret Service in the White House didn’t quite like Melania’s approach to the job.
Namely, being the First Lady, she was expected to be working from her office in the East Wing, but instead, she spent most of her time in the executive resident.
During the four years at the White House, Melania was reportedly spotted in her office only “a handful of times.”
“Mrs. Trump was working from home long before the country was,” Grisham wrote, referring to the Covid-19 pandemic, as reported by
CNN.
“When warranted, we would have in-person meetings, but those generally took place in the Map Room across from the elevators to the residence. There we would plan out schedules, respond to pressing queries, and discuss goals. Other than that, the first lady kept to her rooms in the residence.”

Apparently, Melania was busy with “self-care” and would spend long hours sleeping.
“She believed that relaxation was central to one’s beauty regimen, as were, of course, spa treatments and facials.”
All this led to the staff at the Secret Service to secretly call her Rapunzel, because “she remained in her tower, never descending.”
Currently, Donald Trump is in the middle of a “hush-money” trial and Melania is not in the courtroom. The reason why is because she wants to protect her son from media scrutiny.
“Melania is good at taking care of business at hand, which includes her own life, the life of her son, and the lives of her close family members,” a source told P
eople Magazine in August last year.
“She would not stand in a circle of people she knows and openly comment on the lawsuits or the mug shot. She will have her way of dealing with this and anything else publicly when she feels like it,” the source added. “Remember, Melania is a mom with a not-yet-adult son to protect. A mug shot that everyone is talking about is just one more issue to wade through.”

If their marriage is solid or shaking, as some claim, can not be said with certainty.
What’s known is that Melania has always been someone who tends to avoid the spotlight, and now that Trump is in the middle of a presidential campaign and a trial doesn’t change that fact.
Once, Melania mocked Donald after he struggled to find the exit from the stage at a rally.
During a Wildwood, New Jersey rally, Donald Trump told the crowd that he no longer does an impression of Joe Biden – because Melania thought it was really him.
Trump recalled, “I called my wife [Melania Trump], the great first lady…I called our first lady – I said, ‘First Lady, how great a speech was that? ‘”
“I called my wife, the great first lady,’ Trump said. ‘I said, ‘First lady, how great a speech was that? ‘She said ‘You were OK’. I said, ‘What’s wrong? ‘. She said, ‘Well, you couldn’t find your way off stage!’
