Trump highlighted his wife's hard work and thanked her as she joined him on the stage. “I also want to thank my beautiful wife Melania, First Lady, who has the number one best-selling book in the country," he said, celebrating the release of her memoir, which came out this October. 

"Can you believe that? She works very hard to help people. So, I just wanted to thank her." 

Photographers captured Melania holding onto Trump's hand and kissing his cheek. 

She and her son, Barron Trump, stood by Trump's side and cheered on him through his acceptance speech. "We're going to achieve the most incredible future for our people," said Trump. 

"It's time to put the divisions of the past four years behind us, it is time to unite. And we're going to try, we have to try, and we're going to be successful at bringing us together... Success is going to bring us together, and we are going to start by putting America first."
