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.
