Life after pageants
Donald J. Trump introduced then-72-year old Phil Ruffin, to Oleksandra Nikolayenko — like Melania Trump, a much younger former model. The couple were married in 2008[2] at Mar-a-Lago, Mr. Trump's private club in Palm Beach, Fla., with him as best man. The men's wives are quite close, Mr. Ruffin has said, “like peas in a pod.”[3]
They have two children: Richard William Ruffin (born April 2010)[4] and daughter Malena (born 2013).[5] She is currently the National Director Chairman of Miss Ukraine Universe.
