You don’t have to be a relationship expert to realize that Donald and Melania Trump have an unconventional marriage. The two, who first met in 1998, have little in common. Whereas Donald is a public figure who once hosted his reality show, Melania tends to avoid the limelight. In addition, Donald likes to run for public office, while Melania prefers to lead a quieter lifestyle. 

These disagreements have long fueled rumors that Donald and Melania’s marriage is on the verge of collapse. 

But despite these scandals, Donald and Melania have remained together for over 20 years. 

Donald and Melania Trump have been connected from the very beginning

When Donald and Melania Trump started dating in 1998, there were rumors that they were not meant to be together. At the time, he was dating several women – including Cara Young – and didn’t know who to choose. 

The attraction was mutual. According to photographer Antoine Verglas, Donald and Melania were constantly making eyes at each other. 

Donald Trump is a big fan of negotiation, but when it comes to his marriage, he’s not the only one. Melania Trump is also believed to be a strong negotiator, and interestingly enough, this similarity is rumored to have a significant impact on the couple’s marriage. 

According to Page Six, the former first lady renegotiated the prenup in 2023 to accommodate a possible second term in office. 

Melania and Donald Trump love spending time alone together

Donald and Melania Trump may have a similar idea of the inner workings of a relationship because they have similar personalities. According to Trump’s family expert, Mary Jordan, Donald and Melania like to spend time alone. 

Melania has learned how to make her husband happy.

Compatibility isn’t the only reason Donald and Melania Trump won’t get divorced. According to some reports, Melania has put a lot of effort into ensuring the success of their relationship. 

In this regard, Melania has tried to make herself into a woman that Donald would want by his side. 

Even though they broke up at the beginning of their relationship, Melania fulfilled Donald’s expectations.

Melania strengthens Donald Trump’s political campaign.

For this reason, a breakup between Donald and Melania Trump would be politically undesirable. Donald is much stronger as a political candidate with Melania by his side. During the 2016 election, she successfully convinced women to vote for her controversial husband. It is said that during the 2024 election, she will be giving her husband advice on how to look more presidential, including apparently warning him against dancing off stage. 

Melania wants to give Barron Trump a secure financial future

However, finances are hardly the only reason Melania Trump stays with Donald Trump. 

It is believed that the couple’s son, Barron Trump, could suffer significantly if his parents split up. Donald has previously referred to Barron as “Melania’s son,” which calls into question how much paternal energy the former president feels toward the boy.

Some sources claim that Melania is working hard to secure a trust fund for her only child. Speaking to Page Six about Melania’s prenup, an insider revealed that Melania is most concerned about her son’s financial future.
