Melania Trump, 47, is one of the most famous women in the world thanks to her husband Donald winning his bid for President of the United States last year - and being inaugurated into the position in January.
Former-model Melania has been by his side every step of the way.
But back in 2011 when the mother-of-one was on the promotional trail for her QVC jewellery collection she admitted she enjoyed some time to herself during her hectic schedule - and husband Donald was supportive of this.
Speaking to Sherrina Navani, of the Mommy Helper Show, Melania revealed she enjoyed having massages and baths away from the family.

"He's very supportive in that way."

She said: "I am [the disciplinarian] because I spend most of the time with him.
"My husband, he's in the office and working. Then weekends we spend together.
"I would say, I am but we are both [the disciplinarian]. My husband, he's really big on the discipline for the children. No drugs, no alcohol, no cigarettes. Work hard and play hard.

He revealed Melania is feeling the intensity of a role in the public eye.
Speaking to US publication Life&Style magazine, the Italian businessman said: “She feels the pressure. She always has to be kind, perfect, well-dressed, well-everything.
“It’s tiring. It’s a tough schedule. She has to be a mother, a first lady, the wife of a man as well.”
