Melania Trump has revealed the reasons she fell in love with her husband, former President Donald, in a gushing video just days after declaring her support for abortion rights.
On X, formerly Twitter, the former first lady posed in front of the camera to tell her 2.8 million followers that: “From the moment Donald and I met, there was an undeniable spark.”
Melania, 54, revealed there was “something magnetic about him, his confidence, his charm, his humor, his vision.”
Their wedding, she said, was a “beautiful affair,” with “a stunning dress, a perfectly created menu by a celebrity chef, and captivating live performances from music legends.”
The clip featured footage from the glamorous day, showing the couple embracing at a dance and herself in her iconic Christian Dior wedding dress.

The video emerged just days after Melania revealed that she was pro-choice, a stark contrast to the views of her husband Donald (pictured left on the couple’s wedding day).
She ended with a shot from her upcoming self-titled memoir, Melania, which will be released Tuesday.
The gushing post about her husband came just days after Melania defended abortion rights, in stark contrast to her “lovely” husband.
“Individual freedom is a fundamental principle that I safeguard,” he said in a video published on X.
‘Without a doubt, there is no room for compromise when it comes to this essential right that every woman has from birth: individual freedom. What does ‘my body, my choice’ really mean?
The video came after The Guardian obtained an early copy of Melania last week, where she told how she has totally different views on abortion than her husband. the current Republican candidate.
“It is imperative to ensure that women have the autonomy to decide their preference to have children, based on their own convictions, free from any government intervention or pressure,” writes the former first lady.
‘Why should anyone other than the woman herself have the power to determine what she does with her own body? A woman’s fundamental right to individual freedom, to her own life, gives her the authority to terminate her pregnancy if she so wishes,’ he continues.
“Restricting a woman’s right to choose whether to terminate an unwanted pregnancy is the same as denying her control over her own body,” he says. “I have carried this belief with me throughout my adult life.”

Melania reveals in her memoirs that she supports abortion as a defender of individual freedoms
“It is imperative to ensure that women have the autonomy to decide their preference to have children…free from any intervention or pressure,” she writes in the new book.
In her memoir, Melania writes that “occasional political disagreements between my husband and I” are “part of our relationship,” adding that she believes in “addressing them privately rather than challenging him publicly.”
Later in the book, he explains why he supports abortion.
“I have always believed that it is essential that people take care of themselves first,” she says. ‘It’s a very simple concept; In fact, we are all born with a set of fundamental rights, including the right to enjoy life.’
‘We all have the right to maintain a rewarding and dignified existence. This common sense approach applies to a woman’s natural right to make decisions about her own body and health.’
Donald Trump said he had spoken to his wife about the book and told her to “go with your heart” in an interview Thursday with Fox News.
‘We talked about it. And I said, you have to write what you believe. I’m not going to tell you what to do. You have to write what you believe,’ he said.
But pro-life activists quickly criticized Melania for having a different opinion than her husband.
Kristan Hawkins, president of Students for Life of America, wrote on Twitter/X: ‘It’s hard to follow the logic of releasing the former first lady’s book right before the election, undermining President Trump’s message to pro-life voters. What a loss of momentum!
The former first lady says she has privately challenged her husband on the issue.
Former first lady Melania Trump will release her memoir on Tuesday, in which she talks about keeping her political differences with her husband, former President Donald Trump, private, and then goes on to say she supports abortion rights.
Hawkins followed up last night in a lengthy post on Twitter/X, judging that Melania’s “support” for abortion is “anti-feminist and clearly outside the teaching of our Catholic faith.”
“Abortion takes an innocent life and is the opposite of empowerment, as women are told they cannot balance the gift of children and a career, so they have to choose one.”
Melania’s views are at odds with those of her husband, who has openly said that abortion law should be left to the states and has taken credit for appointing the three Supreme Court justices who helped overturn Roe. vs. Wade, the landmark 1973 Supreme Court decision that granted women at the federal level a right to abortion.
The decision has led to safe abortion practices being banned or restricted in 22 states, and Trump has said he has “no regrets” about the appointments.
Since then, the former president has tried to present himself as more moderate on the issue, as it has become a political problem for Republicans.
In August, Trump exclusively told DailyMail.com that he could vote to end Florida’s draconian six-week abortion ban when it comes up in a referendum later this year.
Days later, after irritating the anti-abortion wing of his party, he said he would not vote to repeal the six-week limit.
On Tuesday of this week, Trump finally said he would veto a federal abortion ban, having previously avoided giving a clear answer.
But his wife’s surprising admission comes just a month before he fights in the presidential election with Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, where abortion rights will be one of the most decisive issues among voters.
Harris has presented herself as the “pro-choice” candidate, while Trump has often struggled to find a clear position on the issue.
