First Lady of the United States
Melania (also known by the Secret Service code name “Muse”) became the first lady of the United States on January 20, 2017. She did not move into the White House until June 11th due to her son’s schooling at Columbia Grammar & Preparatory School. During her time as First Lady, Melania had a staff of 11 and was only the second first lady to be born outside of the United States (the first was London native Louisa Adams).

Melania’s first White House event was a March 2017 International Women’s Day luncheon where she spoke about gender equality and her experiences as a female immigrant. During her time as First Lady, Melania focused on the prevention of online bullying with her “Be Best” campaign, a move that earned criticism from many as a result of her husband’s consistently hostile behavior on Twitter.
Real Estate
In January 2016, Melania paid $1.5 million for a 1-bedroom apartment on the 33rd floor of Trump Tower. At the time of the purchase, the Trumps already owned a huge penthouse that took up the 66th, 67th, and 68th floors of the building, and there has been speculation that Melania bought the 1,052-square-foot apartment to use as a library.
