The First Time Donald Trump Hit on Melania
In her memoir Melania, released in October 2024, Melania Trump recounts the first time her now-husband, Donald Trump, made a move on her.
The former First Lady reveals that this occurred at a 1998 Fashion Week party in New York, while Trump was on a date with another woman, an “attractive blonde.”
Despite being with someone else, Trump approached Melania and asked for her phone number when his companion stepped away.
Melania, intrigued but cautious, declined to give him her number and instead asked for his, on the condition that she would call him.
She reflects on being captivated by Trump’s charm and the instant connection they shared, which left a lasting impression on her.
This memorable interaction eventually led to their relationship, with the couple marrying in 2005.
The story sheds light on their early days and the magnetic attraction Melania felt during their first conversation.
