Melania Trump, America's First Foreign-Born First Lady In 2 Centuries
Melania Trump brings poise and glamour to the presidency of her husband Donald Trump, and will become America's first foreign-born first lady in two centuries.
Elegant with a dazzling smile, the 46-year-old native Slovenian was at her husband's side in New York early Wednesday when he declared victory -- a discreet source of support, out of the camera frame.
Glamorous life
Born Melanija Knavs in Slovenia -- then part of Yugoslavia -- to a fashion-industry mother and a car-salesman father, she studied design and architecture before leaving for Milan and Paris to launch her modelling career.
That brought her to the United States in 1996, where two years later she met Trump. She later became his third wife.
At the convention, she said becoming a US citizen, in 2006, was "the greatest privilege on planet earth."
