Keeping it in the family!
As it turns out, prior to marrying into the famous Trump family, Vanessa Trump worked as a model for Wilhelmina Models — a gig that some might argue came her way due to the fact that her mother, Bonnie Kay Haydon, ran her very own modeling agency aptly dubbed Kay Models, per Elite Daily. (Nepo babies, UNITE!) It should be noted, however, that she didn’t stop there. It’s also reported that Vanessa gave acting a try as well, starring in the Nancy Meyers movie, “Something’s Gotta Give.” According to The Cut, her role in the popular film starring acting giants Jack Nicholson and Diane Keaton was minimal, to say the least, with a whopping 20 seconds of screen time. Nevertheless, it was enough to give her an acting credit on her IMDb page.

But that’s not all. Per Romper, Vanessa Trump flexed her design skills with a line of handbags she created herself. “We wanted to create something that was upscale and outstanding, yet very functional,” she told Joonbug in 2012 (via Pop Culture) about her foray into the world of accessory design. “I wanted to design something that I would like to wear. I also know what it’s like to be a busy mom on the go,” she added. However, following her high-profile marriage and subsequent divorce from Donald Trump Jr., it appears that she was eager to take a step away from the professional world.
