Presidents and monarchs are not alien to anything human, and just like most men, they are not indifferent to female beauty. It is not surprising that the rulers' wives are exceptionally beautiful. See for yourself!
We present the TOP 10 most beautiful wives of presidents and monarchs.
Melania Trump - First Lady of the United States (46 years old)Melania Trump is called the most beautiful first lady of our century. A magnificent figure, innate grace, slanting cat eyes - all this makes her truly delightful. However, why be surprised: Donald Trump has always liked luxurious women. All three of his wives are one more beautiful than the other!
Melania is of Slovenian origin. From the age of 17 she worked as a fashion model, some of her photo shoots are very racy.
Billionaire Trump met a girl at a party in 1998. Melania later said that at the time of their acquaintance he was quite drunk, but this did not stop him from asking the pretty model for her phone number. At first the girl rejected his advances, but then gave in. They have been inseparable for 18 years.
Marcela Temer – First Lady of Brazil (33 years old)
Marcela Temer is 42 years younger than her husband, 76-year-old Michel Temer! When they got married in 2003, she was only 20. Temer was not yet president, but Marcela already had a royal title! She won the crown of beauty queen of the Brazilian city of Paulinia, where she was born. Marcela, of course, was a very beautiful and spectacular girl, and she easily managed to win the heart of the successful politician Michel Temer, who hastened to propose marriage to the young charmer.
On August 31, 2016, Marcela became the first lady of Brazil, but she has not yet managed to win the love and affection of ordinary Brazilians. Residents of a country that is currently experiencing better times, believe that the president’s wife spends too much money from the state treasury on her outfits.
Letizia – Queen of Spain (44 years old)
Before her wedding to Prince Philip VI, Letizia Ortiz Rocasolano was a famous journalist and TV presenter, but for the sake of marriage with the heir to the throne, she had to give up her career. However, as First Lady, Letizia achieved even more outstanding successes. She managed to become famous throughout the world as a woman with the most impeccable taste. According to rumors, Kate Middleton herself is trying to imitate her.
All the costumes of the Spanish Queen are refined and elegant, and her wedding dress tops the ranking of the most beautiful wedding dresses in history. And this is not the least merit of its owner, because, as Yves Saint Laurent said, the most important thing in women's clothing is the woman who wears it.

You won't see the Queen of Jordan in traditional Arab clothing: she never wraps herself in black from head to toe, preferring European style.
Mehriban Aliyeva – First Lady of Azerbaijan (52 years old)
The wife of the Azerbaijani president is a real oriental beauty. Despite her years (and she is already over 50), she looks amazing. Look at the photo of her with her daughters and try to guess which of the three charming women is Mehriban. Not an easy task, Truth?

Juliana Awada - First Lady of Argentina (42 years old)
The wife of the Argentine president has been repeatedly recognized as one of the most elegant women on the planet. In addition to her exquisite taste, Juliana inherited her striking appearance, inherited from her Lebanese father and Syrian mother.

Angelica Rivera is the First Lady of Mexico and a popular soap opera actress. She is known to Russian television viewers for her roles in the TV series “Simply Maria” and “Mistress”. In 2008, Angelica, thanks to her beauty, won the heart of the governor of the state of Mexico, Enrique Peña Nieto, whom she married 2 years later.
In 2012, her husband was elected president of Mexico, and she became first lady. Angelica and her husband have six children between them: three of her daughters from a previous marriage, as well as two daughters and a son, Pena. On at the moment Angelica is 47 years old, but she is still incredibly beautiful. The beauty says this about her character:
“disorganized, cheerful, hysterical, jealous...”Jetsun Pema – First Lady of Bhutan (26 years old)
“Himalayan Kate Middleton”, “Dragon Queen”, “First Beauty of Bhutan”, “Jewel of the Bhutanese Crown” - this is what the press calls the young wife of the Bhutanese king. The monarch was so fascinated by the beautiful companion of his life that for her sake he abandoned polygamy, although he had the right to unite his fate with several women at once, as his father did.
Lalla Salma – Queen of Morocco (38 years old) 
The wife of the Moroccan King Mohammed VI comes from ordinary family. Before her fateful meeting with the monarch, she worked as a computer engineer, and first saw her future husband at one of the corporate parties. The red-haired beauty immediately turned Mohammed's head, for her sake he refused to marry other women, although he is a follower of Sharia law.
Princess Charlene - First Lady of Monaco (38 years old) 
Prince Albert II of Monaco married quite late, at 51. He chose the charming blonde Charlene Wittstock, a former swimmer. The king's entourage says that the prince's wife is very similar to his mother, the legendary Grace Kelly.

It was probably this similarity, as well as the desire to have a legitimate heir, that forced the monarch to say goodbye to his bachelor life. Three years after the wedding, 36-year-old Charlene gave birth to twins - Prince Jacques and Princess Gabriella. 
They say that behind a great man there are no less great women. Presidential wives do not always hide behind their backs, and the role of the first lady is obligatory.
But who are they: the other halves of the first person of the state? The wives of presidents, like all girls, are different: beautiful and not so, great prudes and models. Judge for yourself.
France: Brigitte Macron Brigitte Macron is the newly-minted First Lady of France. The wife of newly elected President Emmanuel Macron is almost 25 years older than him. We can say that she raised the president, because she was his school teacher. 
Bridget Macron does not leave the covers of world publications; she stands out too much from the background of other presidential wives: she is raising three small grandchildren, wears leather leggings and speaks to the press with quotes from philosophers. 
The media analyze in detail her wardrobe, the history of her relationship with her young influential husband, and also talk about her alleged influence on his political decisions. 
The French President says about his first lady: “If I were 20 years older than my wife, and not vice versa, no one would have thought for a second that our marriage was insincere. But since she is 20 years older than me, people say that this relationship is abnormal.”
USA: Melania Trump
Before the election of Emmanuel Macron as president of France, the wife of Donald Trump was called the most scandalous first lady. She, of course, is much younger than her chosen one, but the point here is different... 
For starters, the First Lady of the United States has never been a woman born in a country with a communist regime (Yugoslavia). And until now, the wives of American presidents have never been photographed naked. 
Melania's photo shoot was published in 2000 in men's magazine GQ. Russia: Lyudmila Putina. Alina Kabaeva?
Lyudmila Putina is not a model, but rather a teacher. A philologist and novelist by training, she taught for some time at the Department of Advanced Training for Teachers at Leningrad State University.
During her husband’s stay in power, Putin managed to change the title of First Lady. A precedent, although expected, was the news of the Putin couple’s divorce. During her marriage, Lyudmila Putina was one of the “invisible wives” - she appeared in public extremely rarely. This story was trending in the USSR. The model is still relevant in the post-Soviet space.
As for the first lady of Russia number 2, whom the media considers Olympic champion By rhythmic gymnastics Alina Kabaeva, President Putin did not officially announce this union, although it seems that for the residents of the country this is a done deal...
Germany: not a lady - Ulrich Merkel and Joachim Sauer

After which ex-husband Merkel got a job at the Central Institute of Physical Chemistry. Joachim Sauer and Angela Merkel legalized their relationship in 1998, although they met much earlier. In addition, at the time they met, Sauer was married.

His wife, Galina Lukashenko, is a teacher of Belarusian language and literature, worked as a head teacher, and is now retired.

According to opposition websites, Lukashenko is seen in the company of young attractive women. Belarusian expert Valery Karbalevich says the Soviet tradition of “hiding leaders’ wives away from the public” is deeply rooted in the public consciousness.
Ukraine: Marina Poroshenko

According to post-Soviet tradition, she rarely appears in public, although she heads the board of the Petro Poroshenko Charitable Foundation.
Azerbaijan: Mehriban Aliyeva
