Questions Arise After Melania Trump’s Unemployed Sister Ines Knauss Receives Citizenship
BY NICOLE JAMES
FEBRUARY 25, 2020

Melania Trump isn’t exactly the most public First Lady we’ve seen in recent administrations, and we know almost no details about her life other than that she was a model and then married Donald Trump. To many Americans, she seems like the loneliest person in the White House right now, but she does have one person she can always count on—her sister, Ines Knauss.

Knauss is a few years older than Melania and lived near the Trumps on Park Avenue. She’s an artist and fashion designer.

Shortly after Donald Trump was inaugurated, the New York Post referred to Knauss as “the older sister nobody knows” and Town & Country called her the “secret sister.”

But for a member of the Trump family, the first lady chooses to be a lot more private online than, say, Donald Trump himself or his children. Despite her relative secrecy, Melania Trump still mentioned her sister in her speech at the Republican National Convention in 2016. The now-first lady said Knauss was “an incredible woman and a friend.”

According to the Express, Ines Knauss obtained her citizenship last year, around the same time Melania’s parents obtained their citizenship.

What rabbit hole are we down where the 1st Lady is a former Slovenian Sex Worker, who lied about
having a college degree, and entered the United States illegally? And now her sister gets citizenship?
