At the time, Melania had already begun seeing her future husband, Donald Trump.
But she was completely unknown to the fireman, Daniel T. Keane.

who cares. We all know who she is and what she's about. Let's not forget that she sued because she wasn't getting $3mil from grifting out of the WH almost as soon as she moved in.

(115,103 posts)9. It's unreal how many pics they take.
Make slight changes to lighting / makeup / outfits, take 50 more pics, make more slight changes, take 50 more, etc etc etc
All in the quest to get just a dozen or so really good pics to send up for consideration. It's wild.
