American journalists recalled Melania Trump's interview with ABC News in 1999. The future first lady talked to reporters about the reason why she decided to marry a billionaire who is 24 years older than her. Melania was also asked about the money issue, whether it was a decisive factor in choosing a husband. This is reported by AiF.
At the time of the interview, Melania was 29 years old, Trump, respectively, 53.
Then the journalist asked Mrs. Trump: "Were you hurt by the comments that you are with him because he is rich?".

"You rarely see 26-year-old supermodels holding hands with a 53—year-old car mechanic...," he said.
"You know, people don't know me. People who say that don't know me. < And if someone says, "You're with this man because he's rich and famous," then they don't know me," Melania replied.
