Donald Trump lied about the price of Melania's engagement ring (word from his jeweler)
Donald Trump's jeweler has disproved the legend: $ 1 million was not spent on Melania's engagement ring.
In 2005, when the commitment of the then business magnate Donald Trump to the model Melania (now) Trump was made public, the businessman made a statement at that time assuring that they had lowered a million dollars in the price of the ring. Thirteen years later, it is the jeweler himself who made the ring, who denies these figures.
The diamond that Melania Trump wears since her engagement with the current president of the United States, and that has created a trend in American high society for more than a decade, seems to have a different history than the one Donald Trump unveiled in his moment. Trump assured that he had obtained a discount of a million dollars in the ring, in the Graff jewelry, that supposedly sold for 1.5 million, and accepted it because, according to his statements, "only a fool would say no and pay a a million dollars more for a diamond. "
However, from the jewelry company of Laurence Graff, who has denied the statements made by Donald Trump thirteen years ago. The jeweler has assured in a statement for Forbes magazine that the company has never made such agreements to "favor" the brand. "We have not sold items for advertising value," said Graff CFO Nicholas Paine. "Trump paid the entire ring, and he did it at the time," commented a third unidentified source.
Donald Trump has not responded to the controversy, but the ring was not the only thing he spoke about at the time. The president of the United States assured, at the time, that the wedding had been practically free, since the same happened with the flowers, details and private jets.
