Melania Trump Speaks: 5 Surprising Revelations from Her AI-Narrated Memoir

Melania Trump Breaks Silence with AI-Narrated Memoir

Former First Lady Melania Trump is making headlines with a unique approach to sharing her story. She’s released an AI-narrated audiobook version of her memoir, ‘Melania,’ marking a first for a US first lady. This 7-hour audiobook offers a glimpse into Trump’s personal life, political views, and some of the most controversial moments of her time in the White House.

Inside the Memoir: 5 Things to Know

Here are five key takeaways from the book:

1. The Enchanting First Encounter

Melania recounts meeting Donald Trump in a New York club back in 1988. She initially declined to give him her number but took his instead, leading to a first date at his Seven Springs estate. She describes his charm and charisma as ‘magnetic’.

2. The Pain of False Rumors

Melania opens up about the hurtful speculation surrounding her son Barron’s health. She criticizes comedian Rosie O’Donnell for making baseless claims about Barron being autistic, calling it cruel and unfounded. This experience, she says, inspired her anti-bullying ‘Be Best’ campaign.

3. Doubts about the 2020 Election

While using more measured language than her husband, Melania expresses skepticism about the 2020 US election. She questions the extended vote count due to mail-in ballots. She also explains her silence during the Capitol riot, stating that she was unaware of the situation as it unfolded.

4. Witnessing an Assassination Attempt

Melania recounts the terrifying experience of witnessing an attempt on Donald Trump’s life during a rally. She watched from New Jersey and says she was most concerned for their son, who also saw the footage and was deeply shaken.

5. A Pro-Choice Stance

In a surprising turn, Melania advocates for abortion rights, arguing that women should have autonomy over their bodies. This stance drew criticism from conservative groups but was surprisingly supported by her husband, who said Melania should be honest about her beliefs.

AI Voice and Future Releases

The AI voice used in the audiobook was developed under Melania Trump’s direct supervision. While she embraces AI in this context, she has been critical of its misuse, particularly in the creation of harmful deepfake pornography. The audiobook is currently available only in English, but more languages are expected to be released in late 2025.
