Melania Trump’s website was taken down as of Wednesday afternoon, after her plagiarized speech at the Republican National Convention fueled questions about her educational biography, the Huffington Post reported.

Melania Trump’s website, before it was taken down, contained links to her jewelry collection and an extensive biography that claimed she possessed “a degree in design and architecture from University in Slovenia”. The theory is that Mrs. Trump’s site was erased after several news outlets started to raise questions about some of the information listed in her biography section.
Digitally speaking, all we have to go on is that an internet archive of Trump’s homepage shows that it has been scrubbed of content, dating back at least a year, in the last week.
If you go to MelaniaTrump.com, you’re presented with a rotating screen of images from Donald Trump’s various properties and businesses.
After obtaining a degree in design and architecture at University in Slovenia, Melania was jetting between photo shoots in Paris and Milan, finally settling in NY in 1996. According to two biographers, Trump dropped out after her freshman year. At the age of eighteen, she signed with a modeling agency in Milan.
That’s not what Trump’s campaign has said, though.
The biography page on this website does not mention his 46-year-old wife, and has not done so for around five years, according to archived pages.
The same Melania Trump biography appears on the GOP convention’s website.
The Trump campaign has not commented on the allegations surrounding Melania’s education.
It’s been a tough few weeks for Donald Trump’s wife.
