"I was always perfectly fine with one," she said, adding, "Donald was encouraging [us] to have more, but I said, I'm completely fine with one because it's a very busy life. And I know how busy he is. And I'm in charge of everything."

Regarding her family life, Melania revealed how she handles their blended family. She emphasized the importance of accepting individuals as they are, saying, "You cannot control anyone... Everybody's in control of their own self. I'm not in control of my husband. I'm not even in control of my child."
Melania spoke about Barron, who recently started attending New York University. She said it was his decision to stay in New York and that she supports his independence. "He's an incredible young man. I'm very proud of his strength, intelligence, and kindness," she remarked. Despite Barron leaving for college, Melania does not feel like an empty nester. She stated, "I raised Barron as his own person and gave him his own yes and no's."
