An Ex-Aide Reveals That Melania And Donald Trump Have An ‘Unconventional’ Relationship After Claiming She ‘Is Exactly Like Him’

On Tuesday, May 15th, Winston Wolkoff spoke to CNN's Jake Tapper during a discussion about Trump's ongoing hush money trial. She said: "I think people have to remember who Melania really is. There is no enigma, there is no mysteriousness. Melania really is who she has portrayed herself to be."

"There is a strength within her that is unlike any other individual I have ever met," she continued, adding: "She does not care what others feel about her nor does she feel she had to ever explain anything to the American people."

She went on to say that Donald and Melania have a "transactional marriage in so many ways that they both garnered so much out of their relationship," and added: "By marrying Donald, Melania really did finally get to be the Vogue cover model that she's always wanted to be, that supermodel, and by marrying Melania, Donald was legitimized as trying to get away from that whole playboy mentality that everyone wanted to characterize him as."

Donald Trump And His Wife Are More Alike Than People Think

Stephanie has actually hinted that the married couple are quite alike on several occasions over the years. Captioning an X video of Donald and Melania looking miserable on Sunday, April 7th, Winston Wolkoff said: "Looks like Melania Trump is about to dive head first into a pool of sharks & nobody's going to protect her. I was the only life guard on duty when she was First Lady." She added: "She chose to live a life in a minefield, where every step is treacherous & never sure when it might explode. She and he are one in the same."

In December 2023, Stephanie spoke to CNN host Abby Phillip about whether Melania could be making more appearances in the coming months to help her husband's 2024 presidential campaign. She confessed: "I do feel strongly that Melania Trump isn't going anywhere. I believe that Melania will stay by Donald's side. Throughout all of this, she is his partner in crime."

She continued to say: "Unfortunately, people keep giving her this out, this reason to believe that Melania should be freed from Donald, but Melania is complicit." She then referenced her speech at the National Archives Naturalization Ceremony, and added: "Melania is, you know, side by side with the showmanship and she is exactly like Donald, just, unfortunately, in a skirt and high heels, and showing up today was just another way for her to have some camera time."
