Former First Lady Melania Trump could reportedly walk away with over $50 million if she ever divorced Donald Trump — though insiders say that’s unlikely.
Strategic Prenups
Sources say Melania, 54, has renegotiated her prenuptial agreement multiple times — first in 2017 before moving into the White House, and again in 2022 amid Trump’s mounting legal troubles. Each update reportedly strengthened her financial position and protected her son Barron’s future.
Estimated Settlement
Experts estimate Melania’s payout could top $50 million, far more than what Trump’s ex-wives Ivana ($14 million) and Marla Maples ($2 million) received. Divorce lawyer Jacqueline Newman told Town & Country that Melania’s deal would be “almost certainly generous,” though still modest compared to her current lifestyle.
From Model to First Lady
Melania met Trump in 1998, married him in 2005, and became a U.S. citizen the following year. The couple’s son, Barron, now 19, attends New York University.
Protecting Barron
Her updated prenup reportedly secures Barron’s share of the Trump fortune and ensures a role for him in the family business.
Loyal, but Prepared
Despite rumors of marital distance, Melania remains publicly loyal, calling herself “first and foremost a mother and wife.” Still, if she ever walks away, it will be with dignity—and a multimillion-dollar safety net.
