Melania Trump's Journey from Slovenia to the White House

As Melania Trump celebrates her 55th birthday, a look back at her roots in Slovenia highlights her path to becoming the U.S. First Lady.

Melania Trump, born on April 26, 1970, in Novo Mesto, Slovenia, marked her 55th birthday amidst resuming her White House duties for her second term. Her journey from a small town in Slovenia to the global stage is a testament to her diverse life experiences and contributions.

Growing up, Melania lived in Sevnica, where she attended Sava Kladnika Elementary School and was remembered by her fifth-grade teacher, Milena Krajnc, as a helpful and diligent student. The mayor of Sevnica, Srečko Ocvrik, praised the Knavs family for their positive impact on the community, noting their active involvement and the economic progress of the 1970s and ’80s in the region.

At 16, Melania embarked on a successful modeling career, which eventually led her to New York in 1996. She became a naturalized U.S. citizen a decade later and married Donald Trump in 2005. Their son, Barron, was born in 2006. Melania’s entrepreneurial spirit saw her launch her jewelry collection and pen a bestselling memoir, ‘Melania,’ in 2024.

As First Lady, Melania launched the ‘BE BEST’ initiative in 2018, focusing on children’s well-being, online safety, and opioid abuse. She also established ‘Fostering the Future,’ providing scholarships to foster youth, and recently celebrated the passage of the ‘Take it Down Act,’ aimed at protecting children from online threats. Her birthday celebrations this year are a reminder of her ongoing commitment to these causes and her unique journey from Slovenia to the White House.
