During your marriage. Who is Melania? Melania Trump, born as Melania Knavs on April 26, 1970, in Novo Mesto, Slovenia (then Yugoslavia), grew up in a working-class family. Her interest in fashion emerged early. Her father, Viktor Knavs, was a car importer, and her mother, Amalija Knavs, worked as a fashion designer. So the foundation for taste and style was laid early. Melania spoke Slovenian as a child but later also learned German, French, and English. She began working as a model when she was 16 years old.

The missteps Melania's missteps are not as significant as her husband's, but there are a few: Plagiarism scandal (2016): During the Republican National Convention, her speech was accused of being plagiarized, as parts of it were very similar to Michelle Obama's speech from 2008. "I really don't care, do u?" jacket (2018): She wore this during a visit to migrant children at the border. She later said it was a statement against fake news, but it was not a particularly wise decision. Passive role: She was often criticized for her limited public involvement during Donald's presidency.
