The US has a new first lady, but despite more than a year of heavy scrutiny for Donald Trump, we still know surprisingly little about his wife, Melania. She kept a fairly low profile during the Republican's election campaign, aside from a disastrous speech at the Republican National Convention in July, which was found to be partially plagiarised from First Lady Michelle Obama. Commentators speculated as to why Melania could not be seen stumping for her husband on the campaign trail across the country, as past wives have done.
