I loved this man. Yes, I was young, but it was my choice. I was romanced, I had Mister Charm all over me, and it was very hard to say no.

When I was 18, I joined the Screen Actors Guild, and after college I came to New York.

I went to work. That was a turning point. When you have to do eight shows a week and your name is on the marquee, no matter what is going on at home or what`s on the cover of the newspapers, you`ve got to do your job.

I look back at old photographs and videotapes, and I go, Who was I trying to be? Who was I doing this for?

He`s part of the product and will make no bones about creating that image to bring the value up in his product, bring the value up in everything he touches.

That took a big toll on our relationship-we would have a little argument: The next day there would be a story about him going out with another girl.

What was a really private and nice relationship was judged and made to be something ugly.

I was made to believe there was a plan in place for ending Donald`s previous marriage. I pulled away because I wanted to allow him the time to deal with his wife.

Every story was being made up. My true friends weren`t the ones speaking. It was people who never knew me, making up stories. Even my local paper put a $1,000 bounty out for information about my whereabouts.

Tiffany is very proud to have the last name and she`s proud of her dad.

This relationship is going to be built on trust.

When we separated, I did not want to get in a slugfest. I had to take the high ground.

We had nine days to plan a wedding. It would just happen that fast. One day, Donald just says, I`m putting it in the paper. We`re on.

In New York, I had not had my name in the papers. Nothing really prepares you for a city like New York, especially when you become known.

I created a production company. Right now I am so happy in my work.

When that man wants something, he`ll stop at nothing to get it. And I also believed in the good of him.

I don`t think he cheated on me. During the marriage, I think he was there.

I think what he loved about me the most was that I wasn`t part of that world. But once we were together publicly, he wanted to change me into that social animal.

He works his business and manipulates and keeps himself in front of the world.

I have a little baby. She knows who I am. My friends know. My family knows.

The problem with losing your anonymity is that you can never go back.

Donald and I still really wanted to be together, but I was fighting to keep what we had privately, and once the world gets involved in your life, little by little it breaks it down until you forget what it was in the first place.

I finally said, I can`t live being carried by this wake.

I met Donald Trump in `85. I ran into him several times throughout the years. We knew we had this connection, but it wasn`t appropriate timing. So we`d spend a lot of time on the telephone. By `88, I knew I truly loved this guy.

I was homecoming queen. I was star of my basketball team.

If we could have somehow stayed away from the public and the press, it might have been different, but every private issue seemed to be played out on the front page.

I`m happy to have had everything healed. We`re fine.

I`m not a big believer in a thing called luck. I believe it has a lot to do with fate and just really having a vision of the way you would see your life.

I`ve made peace with the past. I have learned a lot. I know who I am. I know where my strengths lie now. I don`t want to jump in too quickly.

I`ve always modeled myself after Ginger.

I was holding a reserve inside all along. When you`re with someone as powerful as Donald, you have no choice. You can get lost within that power if you`re not careful.

My personal life was fair game. And that`s what hurt me.
