Attracted to Melania Trump, says Berlusconi

Rome, June 23
Italy's flamboyant former Premier Silvio Berlusconi admitted on Friday he finds US President Donald Trump's Slovenian-born wife Melania attractive.

"What I like about Trump is his wife - her beauty her style and her charisma," the 80-year-old billionaire media mogul said in an interview with Italy's La7 TV channel.

"I haven't met her, but I hear many good things about her. Even the Democrats have nothing bad to say about her," Berlusconi said.

Melania Trump, 47, a former model, became a US citizen in 2006.

She is Trump's third wife and married him in 2005.
