US President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania are celebrating their 20th wedding anniversary. Their relationship has evolved significantly since their first meeting at a New York Fashion Week party in 1998. To mark this special occasion, Trump shared a throwback wedding-day photo on X, along with the message, “Happy 20th Anniversary to Melania!”
In a separate post on the official POTUS account, Trump posted a picture of the couple and paid tribute to Melania, saying, “Celebrating 20 years with my beautiful wife and our incredible First Lady, Melania. You’re an extraordinary wife and a wonderful mother. Happy Anniversary, @FLOTUS.”
Their relationship began when Trump, newly separated from his second wife, actress Marla Maples, met Melania, a Slovenian-born model. Despite Melania’s initial reluctance to give Trump her number, their relationship blossomed. They got engaged at the Met Gala in 2004 and tied the knot in January 2005.
The couple’s desire to start a family soon became a reality when their son, Barron William Trump, was born in 2006. Melania’s transition to the role of First Lady after Trump’s successful presidential run in 2016 was met with praise from Trump, who described her as an “amazing mother.”
With Trump serving his second non-consecutive term in the Oval Office, Melania has resumed her duties as First Lady. Their enduring relationship and shared experiences continue to shape their journey together.
