Melania Trump Shuts Down Rift Speculation After Laying Low Amid Donald's Arrest

Melania Trump sets the record straight following her husband, former President Donald Trump’s legal woes. After Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s decision to charge Donald with 34 felony counts of business fraud, the former first lady took to her official Twitter page to address the speculation that there is a rift between herself and Donald. “News organizations have made assumptions about the former First Lady’s stance on subjects that are personal, professional, and political over the past few weeks,” the statement read. “In these articles, unnamed sources are cited to bolster the author’s claims.” A follow-up tweet asked readers to exercise “good judgment” when determining the credibility of the claims in various publications.

Many social media users took to the comments section to weigh in how authentic they thought the post was, and reviews were split. “I would Never believe anything written about Melania Trump unless it was clearly her quote or demonstrably her voice. God Bless you, I honestly believe that you are our finest First Lady in US history,” one person wrote in Melania’s defense. “So, why no mention of your husband’s indictment and arrest?” one of her critics added.

The post marks the first on Melania’s “Office of Melania” account since she retweeted a post about her “Be Best Initiative” on March 9. The day before, she shared a post from her personal page in honor of International Women’s Day. Interesting, to say the least.
