US First Lady Melania Trump used a private email account linked to the Trump Organization while in the White House, a former adviser has revealed.
Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, also a close friend who is coming out with her tell-all memoir, "Melania and Me: The Rise and Fall of My Friendship with the First Lady", said she and the First Lady corresponded multiple times a day.
"Melania and I both didn't use White House emails," The Hill news website quoted Wolkoff as saying in a Washington Post interview published on Tuesday night.
The private account was from a MelaniaTrump.com email domain.
In some of her mails sent via the private account, Trump discussed topics like government hires and contracts; schedules for her and the President; and her Be Best initiative.
