Profiling Melanie Trump from life in the former Yugoslav republic until the first meeting with Donald Trump

Melanie Trump, the First Lady of the United States, was a model before marrying President Donald Trump 15 years ago.

She is an immigrant from Slovenia and usually avoids public appearances, except when she speaks in the name of supportive causes, which focus generally on child welfare.

American Voice correspondent Caroline Preutti sums up some of the most prominent features that distinguish Melanie Trump as First Lady.

First Lady Melanie Trump, always elegant and well dressed.

An immigrant who grew up in Slovenia, a former Yugoslav republic with a population of two million, where her childhood friends still live.

He was a very positive man. He liked to read. He also liked to stylish, make new clothes out of old”, says Mirjana Jelacic. Melanie's childhood friend.

That beautifully dressed passion helped her to obtain her first role as a model through which she came to the United States.

It's the first immigrant lady since President John Quince Adams' wife, Louise in the 19th century”, says People magazine columnist Michelle Tauber.

Melanie and President Donald Trump, by a 24-year margin, met at a party and married in 2005.

Barron Trump was born a year later and is the youngest son of a president, after that of President Kennedy, John F. Kennedy, Junior, 1963.

She's a wonderful mother and loves her son, Barron”, says President Donald Trump.

He likes school and sports. He's a good athlete. And I want to keep her from excessive attention right now, say Melanie about her son.

She herself shys away from the public eye except for any representation of her causes.

Its “campaign B E BEST” is focused on child welfare. In July it distributed food at a shelter for homeless mothers. Its campaign is also against bulimism in social media.

Technology enables people a digital shield to hide and anonymity often replaces care and responsibility, which can also make children and adults more bold to be savage”, Melanie says.

he issued a statement saying: “it is no secret that President and First Lady often communicate differently, like many couples”.

Sometimes she herself has been targeted. When President Trump won the election, Slovenians placed a statue in her honour, wearing the inauguration day dress. <

But on July 4th of this year, American Independence Day, vandals set him on fire and the statue was removed.

This is a very difficult task. It's easier for the first ladies to play a similar role before, but for someone who has never been in government, it's a hard job”, said analyst Cookie Roberts, who no longer lives.

It is an honor and a great pleasure to be here before you, as the First Lady of the United States”, she said in one case.

Although it has spent the last four years mainly away from cameras, experts say Melanie Trump will be more present publicly, while trying to be the first lady for yet another mandate.
