Melania Trump worked as a fashion model before getting married to the President of the United States Donald Trump, 73. It is well known that the First Lady of the United States has a particular love for designer clothes, shoes and jewels, but many have noted that FLOTUS usually wears one particular item of jewellery more regularly than others - what piece does she favour most?
In recent years, the gorgeous First Lady has been spotted wearing one item of her jewellery collection than most - her stunning, and enormous, engagement ring.
When Donald proposed marriage to Melania in 2004, after six years of dating, at the Met Gala, he gifted to her a stunning 15-carat diamond ring on her finger, according to the New York Post.
"The ring is blinding," The Post quoted one anonymous Trump staffer as saying. "I had to put sunglasses on."
The engagement ring is said to have cost an eye-watering amount.
Tobias Kormind, managing director at 77Diamonds.com, told Express.co.uk: “Donald Trump bought her a 15 carat, D Flawless, emerald cut diamond ring from Graff which would today retail for $3million which is around £2.3million.
“At the time, Trump hit the headlines for claiming he had enjoyed a 50 percent discount. Graff was later quoted saying, 'We don't sell items for publicity value’.”
Although the jewel was already worth a huge amount, Donald upgraded it ten years later as an anniversary present.
“A decade later on their 10th anniversary, Donald Trump upgraded the size of Melania's ring to a 25 carat diamond, also from Graff," Tobias added.
Since the upgrade, Melania has been inseparable from her ring.
She even wore it in her official White House portrait, to show it off to the world.

She loves her engagement ring
One of the most beautiful women in the world who, in the past four years, has worn some of the most gorgeous clothing ever made and she has not been on a magazine cover. They have put the butch-bully Michelle on covers galore and even old-hag Hillary, but not the gorgeous Melania. Shameful.
It’s really just highly compressed Coal...
Just one word ... “Flawless!”
When I was growing up, First Ladies were treated with respect by the print media. I always enjoyed seeing them on the covers of the women’s magazines.
That Michelle Obama was promoted non-stop on magazine covers as not only a raving beauty but a fashion plate is preposterous. She’s an attractive woman — when she can manage to wipe her signature scowl of her face. But her fashion sense is fashion senseless.
Compare that to Melania Trump, rivaled only by Jackie Kennedy when it comes to iconic beauty and fashion, with zero magazine covers. It’s a travesty. And it proves how petty and far Left America’s print media has become.

The media were desperate to portray Michelle as an icon of grace, beauty, and style. She was, at best, a satisfactory Michelle.
Have often wondered if past contracts from her modeling days are still in place Exclusives etc???? Maybe none of them can afford her fees!

They honed their cheating skills on Moochie in their attempts to turn a sow's ear into a silver purse.
In a heartbeat.
LOL. You have good taste, Dude.
We ALL appreciate beauty that comes from the inside out! :-)
That’s a great point.
And I’m happy if that’s the case.
Truly Perfect

It’s really just EXPENSIVE highly compressed Coal...
“Men grow cold
As girls grow old
And we all lose our charms in the end
But square-cut or pear-shaped
These rocks don’t loose their shape
Diamonds are a girl’s best friend!”
And, yes. I speak from experience - though I’ve never had one above a 1 carat weight.
However, I ain’t dead yet, LOL! ;)
100%
The Emerald Cut is designed to enhance depth of color by limiting the washout associated with cuts (like the round brilliant) that magnify brightness. Since diamonds graded D are prized for their colorless clarity, it’s simply misguided to diminish their innate beauty to absorb light, magnify it, and sparkle magnificently in the full spectrum of diamond fire. Cutting colorless diamonds like they were emeralds is tantamount to covering up a Picasso with a velvet picador.
