NEW: Melania Trump’s former advisor says her relationship with Donald Trump is ‘transactional’

Melania Trump‘s former adviser is now the author of a memoir about her relationship with the first lady. Stephanie Winston Wolkoff spoke with BBC about her book “Melania and Me: The Rise and Fall of My Friendship with the First Lady.”

In the book, the first lady’s former friend said Melania’s marriage with President Donald Trump is “transactional.” She says that the Trumps use each other to further their own careers.

“I do believe it is a transactional marriage. Donald got arm candy, the Vogue cover legitimized Melania which legitimized Donald as well, and Melania got two dynamic decades,” Winston Wolkoff said.
