New York: A tabloid caused a major stir when it published nude photographs of Melania Trump, wife of Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, during her modelling days in the 1990s.

“You’ve never seen a potential First Lady like this,” the New York Post said on its front page yesterday below a nude photograph of Melania.


The pictures were taken during a shoot in 1995 in Manhattan for a photo spread for a now-defunct French men’s magazine.

When asked about the photos, Trump told The Post: “Melania was one of the most successful models and she did many photo shoots, including for covers and major magazines. This was a picture taken for a European magazine prior to my knowing Melania. In Europe, pictures like this are very fashionable and common.”

The photos show Trump’s wife in nothing but high heels. She was introduced to Trump during a New York Fashion Week party in 1998. The two wed in 2005 in a ceremony at Trump’s resort in Florida.

Key adviser to Trump, Jason Miller said there’s no problem with the publication of the nude photograph of Trump’s wife. “They’re a celebration of the human body as art,” Miller said, adding, “There’s nothing to be embarrassed about. She’s a beautiful woman.”
