In her only UK broadcast interview, Stephanie Winston Wolkoff - Melania Trump’s former friend and aide - joins Newsnight's Kirsty Wark to discuss her relationship with the First Lady and her new tell-all book, Melania and Me. Subscribe to our channel here: goo.gl/31Q53F
A former aide to Melania Trump has written a memoir, Melania and Me, about her 15-year friendship with the US first lady.
In 2018, Ms Winston Wolkoff was reportedly forced out of the White House, amid allegations that she had been profiteering from President Trump's inauguration.
But the former aide has said she was "thrown under the bus".
She denied claims her company received $26 million (£20 million) in payments to help plan the 2017 ceremony and surrounding events, saying her firm "retained a total of $1.62 million".
The White House has denounced the book as a "bizarre twisting of the truth".

Many women are married to men they don’t particularly like any longer but they stay with them for financial reasons. Apart from not being in the public eye, what’s the difference? I don’t think many of us would cope very well with our whole lives being scrutinised by everyone in the world, especially when the majority would want us to fail and exaggerate, or make up stories about us. I can understand why people don’t like Mr Trump, he’s uncouth and says whatever comes into his mind, but compare that with the alternative, at least he wants the best for his country and its people, which is a whole lot more than can be said of the other side. I would choose Mr Trump over Biden and his cronies any day.

monas you’re a fool if you believe the tiny salary he “donates” to the gov is even 1% of what this fraud president and his family are raking in from the taxpayers. He is at Mara Lago or some other tacky, gold dripped golf club he owns almost every weekend along with WH staff & Secret Service. Guess who’s paying for all the accommodations, meals and golf cart rentals? The taxpayers,! And guess who is collecting all that taxpayer money? None other than Our mafia Pres, his two idiot sons, his girlfriend/daughter Ivanka and good ole Be Best Mellie! This is the most corrupt and incompetent world leader any western country has ever had! But of course all of this means nothing to the cult....

Melania and the Trumps tried to blame the author for their own financial mismanagement and exploitation of funds - which is typical of the Trumps. So Melania was never a friend. It's not the low road to tell the truth. It's the low road to be bought by a rich, vile criminal. And then stay with him for more money.

@sacassashimidrama7088 2 жыл бұрын

Am not fan of Trump or Melania but iam actually fan of Ivana Trump . I quite liked Ivana . But why should anyone have a friend if your friend will do what this woman is doing to Melania ? The part I hate most is that recording; how can you record someone’s conversation without their knowledge? Is that even legal? I don’t really know this lady but that recording of a friend’s conversation is despicable.

How is it your place to talk about someone else's marriage publicly, and even much more someone who used to be your close friend? What is the purpose of you coming out and saying these things? You say they do everything in their best interest and that everyone needs to know. That's it? That's the big reveal that everyone needs to know? with no proof of anything.. Ok.
