A new report from CNN reveals details about First Lady Melania Trump’s early life from those who knew her growing up in Slovenia.

CNN writes, “Janez Levstik, a retired factory worker who now runs Melania Trump tours of the town, remembers the first lady as a child, describing the one-time model as a ‘nice girl’ who was ‘good at school.'”

The report also quotes a priest from the church where Melania Trump was baptized in 1970.

“Melania’s uncle still lives a few hundred meters away down the hill.”

The report also notes that many of the townspeople are such big fans of the first lady that many sell gifts and products that are Melania-themed.
