Melania Trump: will the Slovenian woman become the first lady of the United States of America?

Behind the name Melanija Knavs, Melania Knauss and Melania Trump is the same woman. The Slovenian woman from Sevnica, who ten years ago married Donald Trump in a $200,000 Dior dress, is the personified definition of American success. Since Slovenia's most famous son-in-law is eagerly competing for the position of Republican candidate for the presidency of the United States of America (USA), the eyes of the world public are increasingly focused on his wife, who intends to become the first lady of the United States next year and the first foreign-born first lady after more than a century and a half.

45 years old today Melania Trump is its own modeling career entered into marriage with American billionaire Donald Trump. Yes, to those uncles who make new enemies every day in the American presidential battle, but still extremely highly rated. Before they met at the Kit Kat Klub in Manhattan (New York, USA) and before the architecture graduate entered the high world of fashion, glitz and fame and became Trump third wife, lived a completely normal life. Lady with a cat's eye she grew up in Sevnica, where her parents still live today, according to her childhood friend Mirjana Jelančič, as a child she stayed in the background.

She swam into modeling waters at the age of 16, and she signed her first professional contract with a Milanese fashion agency, namely when she crossed the formal threshold of adulthood. After a (phantom) degree in design, she ventured across the pond where her heart was warmed for a 24-year-old financial mogul Trump; they married in 2005, and a year later, Melania gave birth to their only child Barron William Trump. Since then, the doors have been wide open for her everywhere, including those of the White House, where her husband wants to move. Can the next occupants of the White House really become members of the Trump family and can Slovenian Melania Trump succeed Michelle Obama on the throne of first lady? For Slovenians, this sounds even more incredible than the victory of the first black presidential candidate seven years ago. Whether that actually happens will also largely depend on Melanie, because we know it does behind every successful man is a successful woman, and if she wins the hearts of Americans, her husband will be forgiven by voters for many more hiccups. And who is Melania Trump today anyway?

Melanie Trump is mother, wife and businesswoman with your own jewelry line Melania Timepieces & Fashion Jewelry, which combines beauty, fashion and design. He draws inspiration from New York, Paris and Palm Beach (Florida), which he considers his home. Our condolences, Sevnica. She loves silk clothes, and she does not subordinate her style of dressing to her husband's. Her favorite brands are Louis Vuitton, Chanel, Valentino and Gucci, and as she says, you won't catch her outside in plain clothes. Merely in a white T-shirt and jeans she is only found at home playing with her son. The beam of the headlights she is no stranger to her modeling days, and during her "career" as the wife of one of the richest Americans, he became her second sun. Her cat-like gaze is characterized by some foreign media as icy and murderous, which is definitely not something American voters are looking for. Or is it?

Melania is increasingly coming to the fore in the presidential race as well.

She could be seen on magazine covers Vogue, GQ, Glamour, Elle, Vanity Fair, Harper's Bazaar and Self, but she was also the face of many commercials. If she managed to break into the White House, she would become the first First Lady since Louisa Adams, the wife of President John Quincy Adams, who moved into the official residence of the President of the United States in 1825, born abroad. But she would be the first first lady to be a third wife.
