Melania Trump's 2025 Earnings Top $17 Million In New Federal Disclosure. The Filings Renew Scrutiny Over Amazon's $40 Million Documentary Deal.

First Lady Melania Trump attends Amazon MGM's "Melania" World Premiere at The Trump Kennedy Center on January 29, 2026 in Washington, DC.

Now, President Donald Trump's certified annual financial disclosure, made available by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics on June 30, 2026, provides the clearest public accounting to date of the income Melania Trump reported receiving from the documentary, NFT sales and book royalties: more than $17.2 million in reported 2025 income across three private commercial ventures she built or expanded before returning to the White House.

The filing is specific enough to examine each one.
