Melania Trump wants Epstein rumours to end

Melania Trump wants Epstein rumours to end

Online speculation about Melania Trump's ties to Jeffrey Epstein has been publicly dismissed by the former First Lady, who called for the "lies" to stop. In a surprise White House address on Thursday, she denied any relationship with Epstein or his associate Ghislaine Maxwell, stating she was not a victim. She clarified that Epstein did not introduce her to Donald Trump, as she met her husband by chance at a New York City party in 1998.
