Describing their nearly two hour car journey, Melania said it was “very nice because we were two of us alone in the car for hour, hour and a half. No other noise, no other people because, at that time, he was already known as a zit celebrity. So it was really nice to be just the two of us.”
She mentioned that she felt some connection with Trump immediately, adding that she adored the “vision that he had” and their bond was “very special”.
Melania further described the former President in one word: “Caring”.
In a bid to promote her upcoming book Melania, the former First Lady sat down for an exclusive interview with Fox News's Ainsley Earhardt in New York.

Melania touches on her family life, reveals Trump wanted more kids
In 2004, Trump proposed to Melania on her birthday with a 15-carat ring worth $1.5 million. However, she said that Trump never mentioned or gave any indications of wanting to run for president.
As Melania touched on her family life, she shared that it was difficult for her to inform her son Barron,18, about the attempt on his dad's life.
Trump, according to her, is “a family man,” who “loves his country” and “wants to build better and prosperous.”
And when asked what it is about him that she finds so endearing, she replied, “His humor, his personality, his kindness—he is very special.”
She also disclosed Trump wanted to have more kids with her, but she was content with just Barron.
“I was always perfectly fine. And Donald was encouraging to have more and I said I'm completely fine with one because it's very busy life. And I know how busy he is. And I'm in charge of everything. So, that's why it's just perfect,” Melania stated.
Before getting married to Melania, Trump already had four children from two prior marriages.

She further hoped that Barron will “have a great experience”, admitting that his “life is very different than any other 18, 19-year-old child.”
