When did Donald Trump marry Melania? A quick look at the timing of their nuptials.
As adult film actress Stormy Daniels detailed her alleged 2006 affair with Donald Trump, the former president sat in a Manhattan courtroom without his wife, Melania.
In the New York case, Trump is charged with 34 counts of falsifying business records. Prosecutors in the trial say that ahead of the 2016 presidential election, Trump had his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, paid Daniels $130,000 to stay quiet about her sexual encounter with him a decade earlier.
While Trump has denied the allegation, Daniels testified about the July 2006 night and described seeing a photo of his wife and asking Trump about her when they were talking in his hotel suite. Daniels testified that Trump told her not to worry about that.

Former Trump White House aide Madeleine Westerhout testified during the hush money trial that she had admired Melania and Donald Trump's relationship, characterizing it as one of "mutual respect" and "really special."
"I know he cares a lot about her opinion," Westerhout added.
She also said the couple "laughed a lot" and described Melania Trump sometimes texting her to say it was after dinner time and asking about her husband.
"There was really no one else who could kind of put him in his place," Westerhout said.
Asked whether the relationship changed after news of the Stormy Daniels hush money deal broke, Westerhout said: "Not that I saw."
