Donald Trump is opening up about the "mystery" surrounding his wife Melania Trump.
In a new interview with Megyn Kelly, the former president talked about why his wife of more than 20 years has kept such a low profile.
"I think part of the beauty is that mystery," he said. "She doesn't need to be out there... she has confidence. She has a lot of self-confidence."
Trump, 77, also compared his wife, 53, to actress Greta Garbo.
"Greta Garbo. She was a great actress... and she had a great beauty, but she was very reclusive, never did an interview. I don't see Melania as like that, but she is introspective, and she's confident," he said.
While Melania has rarely been seen in public over the past year, the former president said she's not missing the spotlight -- and people respect her for that.
"She's doing very well she's very strong, very even keeled and she's a very good woman," he said. "She's a very calm person, it's very interesting, and I think that's what people like about her."
"The people really like her," he added. "And she was a really good First Lady."
Trump also gave an update on Barron, saying the 17-year-old is doing "really well" and is a "very good athlete."
"He's very tall – about six eight – and he's a good kid. He's a good looking kid. He's a good student, a great student, actually... we're thinking about [college] right now," he added.
The former president also gave some insight to his home life with his wife and son.
"Our dinners are nice. Dinners are like other people's dinners. We get along. We actually get along very well," he said.
