In her upcoming memoir, Melania, out Tuesday, the former first lady lifts the veil on her marriage to Donald
Throughout the 184-page book, she makes an effort to demonstrate that the public only partially knows her husband.
“As I got to know him better, I realized that the public only saw one side of Donald Trump,” he wrote.
“In private he revealed himself to be a gentleman, showing tenderness and consideration.”
Melania summed up her husband as not “flashy or dramatic,” but “genuine and caring.”
The former first lady offered readers other tender details of her nearly two-decade marriage to Donald.
Over five pages, Melania recounted the moment she and the former president met in 1998, when she was 28 years old and he was 52.
Throughout the 184-page book, Melania took pains to show that the public only partially knows her husband.
At the time of the meeting, she explained that she had reluctantly accepted a friend’s invitation to a party at the Kit Kat Klub because it was Fashion Week.
Amid the “sophistication and camaraderie” of the venue’s VIP section, she said a man approached her and said, “Hello.” I’m Donald Trump.’
“I recognized the name and knew he was a businessman or a celebrity, but not much else,” he recalled. “Hello,” I responded. “I’m Melania.”
But Trump was not alone. Melania said she had a ‘beautiful date’, rumored to be Celina Mildefar, a Norwegian heiress.
Despite feeling “drawn to (Trump’s) magnetic energy,” Melania said she resisted giving him her phone number.
Melania summed up her husband as not “flashy or dramatic,” but “genuine and caring.”
Undeterred, the former president had his “bodyguard” hand him an “elegant business card,” on which he wrote down two more numbers.
Later, when Melania returned from a modeling job in the Caribbean, she said she called him because “the connection between us was palpable.”
For their first date, she wrote that they toured Donald’s bucolic estate in Bedford, just north of New York City.
During the tour, Melania said Trump mentioned that he was in the process of divorcing his second wife, Marla Maples, whom she did not name.
“I refrained from passing any judgment and chose to enjoy his company,” he wrote.
“Our connection was undeniable and our connection felt natural,” Melania said of her chemistry with Trump.
“He was a little older than me, but I, at the age of 28, felt an instant connection with him,” she continued.
“Our connection was undeniable and our connection felt natural.”
At another point in the book, Melania took aim at those who call her a “gold digger” and claim that she married her husband because of his wealth.
“I had made my fortune and could have easily attracted the attention of numerous celebrities if I had so desired,” he wrote.
She said that upon moving into Trump Tower, about four years into their relationship, she would cook for him.
“Every time I played music at home, it turned up the volume and made me dance spontaneously,” he wrote, evoking a domestic idyll.
Melania continued to gush about her Mar-a-Lago wedding with her ‘500 celebrity guests.’
“He was a little older than me, but I, at the age of 28, felt an instant connection with him,” Melania wrote.
She noted that Anna Wintour, the editor-in-chief of Vogue, accompanied her to Paris to choose her dress.
In her book, Melania briefly addresses her relationship with Donald’s four oldest children, whose names she only mentions once.
The former first lady wrote that there are “intricate dynamics” at play when it comes to interacting with the sons and daughters of Donald’s previous marriages.
“While I do not agree with every opinion or choice expressed by Donald’s adult children, nor do I agree with all of Donald’s decisions, I recognize that different points of view are a natural aspect of human relationships,” he wrote.
