Yes she modeled for her mother as a teen--hardly professional, and then there is a multi-year gap before she did those soft-porn images after arriving in New York and doing some work for the Trump "modeling" agency (most in or near his private plane), some shots for GQ and a cover of her eating diamonds. Her "fame" and career seemed to begin once she met tRump--not before. So what was her "career" for those missing years?
Anyone working as a top model on the catwalks of Milan, Paris, etc. is extensively photographed. Where are the pictures?

to keep her by his side.
