Melania Trump Bio
She was born on 26 April 1970 in Novo Mesto in the then-communist Yugoslavia (in today’s Slovenia). At the time of her birth, she was called Melanija Knavs. She grew up in a modest environment and lived in a block of flats in Sevnica, which lies in the lower Sava valley. Her family later moved to a two-story house in Sevnica.
She attended grammar school at the College of Design in Ljubljana, Slovenia, while living in a high-rise apartment in Ljubljana. Later she enrolled at the University of Ljubljana to study architecture and design but dropped out after a year.
Since she always wanted to become a model, Melania started working with Stane Jerko, a fashion photographer from Slovenia, at the age of sixteen. At eighteen she signed with a model agency in Milan. When she started modeling, she transcribed her surname “Knavs”, which is Slovenian, into a more German “Knauss”.

In 1992 Melania was named runner-up in the “Look of the Year” competition in Ljubljana by the magazine “Jana”. While still modeling in Milan, she did the same for fashion houses in Paris, and it was during this time that she met Paolo Zampolli, co-owner of Metropolitan Models, who convinced her to move to the United States.
In 1996 Melania came to New York and became a quite successful model, working with photographers like Helmut Newton and Patrick Demarchelier. She has been on the covers of several popular magazines such as Vogue, Vanity Fair, Harper’s Bazaar, Front, and GQ. During this time she changed her name to Melania Knauss. Besides skincare products, she also has a label for designer watches.

They began to meet and became engaged in 2004 and on January 22, 2005, Melania married Donald Trump at the Episcopal Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea in Palm Beach, Florida. The reception took place at Trump’s estate “Mar-a-Lago”. Fast forward to twelve months later, Melania gave birth to her first child and Donald Trump’s fifth, Barron William Trump.
A major pillar of the Trump presidency was controversy, some of which dealt with the President’s inappropriate behavior toward women and in some cases accusations of total infidelity. Amid all the apparent turmoil, the First Lady managed to keep up appearances and thus put to rest any rumors of an impending divorce.
