Melania Trump: Ex-Boyfriend’s Stunning Confession of First Lady Revealed | ...

They married in 2005 – a year later their son Barron was born and Melania became a naturalized US citizen.

However, Melania had a fascinating life and career before meeting the future president.

Melania attended high school in Ljubljana, where she studied for a year at university before dropping out to devote herself entirely to modeling.

Her ex-boyfriend Jure Zorcic met Melania in the summer of 1991 when she was 21 years old.

He said, “We met like in a movie. It was a hot summer day between the wars in Slovenia.

“It was the beginning of a new political era for us, the city was empty and blocked by the army.

“I was on my motorcycle and she was walking down the street.

“As I was walking past her, I had a moment and thought, ‘Wow, who is this girl? She is so beautiful, I have to turn back and follow her. ‚”

Mr Zorcic explained how he stopped his motorcycle and started talking to Melania before taking her for a coffee.

He said she was wearing “the most fashionable piece” he has ever seen, referring to a full leather number she was wearing.

The couple were together for several months and spent summer days by the Croatian sea with friends.

He said, “It was a bit of a shock when I met her. She’s very special, that’s the truth. “

Melania is now a style icon whose looks are being imitated by people all over the world.

According to Mr Zorcic, who spoke to ABC News in 2016, she has always been a very beautiful and fashionable woman.

He said, “I was struck by her beauty from the first moment. She was very nicely dressed and her demeanor was noble.

“She was tall, had long hair on her face, I could hardly see her eyes – such a style!”

He added: “She wanted to live abroad, in Italy, France, a life in fashion. She was very fashionable. ”

Melania made that dream come true – for a while she lived the jet-set life of a model flying between Paris and Milan.

She finally decided to move to the United States after meeting Paolo Zampolli, co-owner of Metropolitan Models, a friend of her future husband, on an exploration tour of Europe.

When Melania moved to Manhattan, Mr. Zampolli let her share an apartment with photographer Matthew Atanian in the Zeckendorf Towers on Union Square.

But according to Mr. Zorcic, as a young woman, she had no dreams of moving to the Big Apple.

He said, “I think it was very far from us at the time.”

Mr Zorcic said he was surprised when Melania suddenly left Slovenia and said, “She told me she had an offer to run a campaign with a hair care company – that’s why she left.”

When the couple reunited in 2000, Mr Zorcic said he was surprised when she spoke to him in English rather than Slovenian.

He said to ABC: “I asked you: Did you forget that you are Slovenian?

“She told me that she spent her time between New York and Fort Lauderdale in Florida and that she would never return to Slovenia.”

Commenting on her marriage to Mr Trump, Mr Zorcic said he believed it was “fate”.

He said, “20 years ago, no one believed that she would live on top of the world on Fifth Avenue in Trump Tower – even her!”
