Melania Trump: First Lady of the US

Melania Trump is the first lady of the United States. She was born Melanija Knavs in Slovenia in 1970 and married Donald Trump in 2005. Using her platform, “Be Best”, she has expressed concern about the opioid epidemic and has condemned cyberbullying. She advocates teaching children how important a healthy and balanced life is, so they don’t turn to destructive behavior or addictions.

She does have some critics. For example, after her address at the 2016 Republican National Convention, some accused her of plagiarizing a speech of her predecessor Michelle Obama. However, a Trump staffer admitted responsibility for erroneously inserting extracts from Obama into Trump’s speech.
