Watch as Melania Trump Totally Dodges the Question of Whether She Fell in Love With Trump: ‘It Was a Connection”
This doesn't spark much confidence in the relationship.
Before Melania Trump sat down for an interview with Fox’s Ainsley Earhardt for an interview for her upcoming memoir, there’s no telling what kinds of questions she thought she might get.
Of course, it can be expected that she got the questions in advance. There’s no way they would make a woman for whom English is a second language sit for a “friendly” interview with a veteran newswoman without some warning of what’s to come.
The question for us is, did she think about this interview before she sat down?
If she did, the awkward moment when Ainsley asked her a personal question seems even more awkward than it normally would. In a segment of the interview about the origins of her relationship with Donald Trump, Melania hesitated where she probably shouldn’t have.

Earhardt was pressing Melania on how the two met, although the host had clearly done her homework. She knew that they’d met at the Kit Kat Club, and that initially Mel had played hard to get, refusing to give the mogul her number.
But Ainsley wanted more details:
“You get in the car and he drives you to Bedford and outside of the city, what an hour outside of the city? And he wanted to show you a business or some property that he had. So he was combining business with taking you on a first date,” Earhardt said.
Melania was forthcoming at first:
“And it was very nice because we were [just the] two of us, alone in the car for [an] hour, hour and a half, and no other noise, no other people, because at that time he was already known and a celebrity. So it was really nice to be just the two of us.”
And then Ainsley posed the million-dollar question that, again, Melania had to know was coming. “Did you fall in love then?” the host asked.
After a pause, the former first lady gave the reply she thought fit the question best. “It was a connection. It was a connection.”
Ouch. No love at first sight fairytale for this power couple. You know, I once had a connection with a lady I sold a sofa to years ago. We talked about the decor of her house and what colors she liked, and then we tested out a bunch of cushions that she liked. She seemed to really like this one couch, but said she needed to think about it.
Eventually, that was the one she settled on, since it provided the most support.
Trying to get Melania back in the spirit of romance for the interview, Ainsley went on. “You got married at Bethesda-by-the-Sea, a beautiful church down in Palm Beach. And then the reception at Mar-a-Lago. What was that day like for you and your family and your mom?”
After murmurs about wanting everything to go smoothly (it did, apparently), Melania finally exclaimed her absolute joy of the moment:
“We had a good day.”
