In her memoir, Melania Trump offers a candid look at her marriage to former President Donald Trump, revealing some surprising and heartfelt aspects of their relationship. The 184-page book combines personal stories, political insights, and reflections on her time in the White House.
One of the most striking revelations is Donald’s thoughtful gesture of calling Melania’s personal doctor to check on her health, which she describes as “thoughtful.” Melania writes, “As I got to know him better, I realized the public only saw a part of Donald Trump. In private he revealed himself as a gentleman, displaying tenderness and thoughtfulness.”
In a recent interview, Melania further elaborates on this. “For example, Donald to this day calls my personal doctor to check in on my health, to ensure that I am okay and that they are taking perfect care of me. He isn’t flashy or dramatic, just genuine and caring,” she shared, giving a glimpse into the more private, caring side of her husband.
Melania also recalls their first meeting in 1998 during Fashion Week in New York City, when she was a 28-year-old model and Donald was a 52-year-old billionaire. Despite his charm, she resisted giving him her number. Instead, he handed her a “sleek business card,” which included two personal numbers. Their first date was a tour of his Bedford estate, a property often criticized for its tax breaks. Despite the controversies surrounding it, Melania describes being “drawn to his magnetic energy…He was a bit older than me, but I, at the age of 28, felt an instant connection with him.”
The memoir also touches on the complex dynamics of their relationship, including Melania’s interactions with Donald’s children from his previous marriages. However, it is clear that their bond has transcended their political differences. While Melania aligns with Donald in questioning the 2020 election results, she has expressed starkly different views on issues such as abortion.
In a video shared on her X account, Melania states, “Individual freedom is a fundamental principle that I safeguard… Without a doubt, there is no room for compromise when it comes to this essential right that all women possess from birth: individual freedom.” This statement stands in contrast to Donald’s anti-abortion stance and the broader Republican Party platform.
Melania’s memoir also delves into their 2005 wedding at Mar-a-Lago, which was attended by notable figures like Bill and Hillary Clinton and Shaquille O’Neal. Despite facing public scrutiny and accusations of being a “gold-digger,” Melania addresses these head-on, emphasizing her self-made success as a model long before meeting Donald. told by Daily Mail.
This memoir offers readers a unique perspective on Melania Trump’s personal beliefs, her marriage, and her life outside of the political spotlight.
