US Election 2024:
As the world keeps a close eye on the U.S. presidential elections, a buzz was created when Melania Trump arrived to vote at the Mandel Recreation Center in West Palm Beach, Florida, on November 5. Accompanied by her husband, former President Donald Trump, social media exploded with speculation.
Images and videos surfaced showing Trump greeting supporters post-vote, with Melania by his side, her expression unreadable behind dark shades. This sparked rumors online that it might not have been Melania at all but her body double.
What's the Story?
Melania Trump, seen sporting black sunglasses the whole time during the voting process, stood by Donald Trump without any facial expressions, stirring debates online about the possibility of a body double. Her lack of visible eye contact due to the all-day sunglasses fueled these rumors.
A viral video shows Trump and Melania interacting with supporters at the polling booth. A user commented, “Melania kept her sunglasses on the entire day.” The video gathered over 41 million views.
Opting for French Fashion
Choosing a black and white polka dot dress over the traditional patriotic colors, Melania wore an elegant attire by Dior, the famed French brand, instead of an American designer.
The satiny dress, belted at the waist with its button-up style left casually open, was paired with stylish black high-heeled pointed sandals.
In July, Melania appeared at the Republican National Convention, wearing a red skirt-suit dress by Christian Dior. Yet, she's been absent from her husband's campaign appearances for months.
In September 2023, Donald Trump was asked in an interview about Melania's absence, to which he replied, “She is a private, great, and confident person. She loves our country deeply and will be there when the time is right.”

Her biographer, Mary Jordan, once noted, “Melania does what Melania wants. She is independent and does not complete tasks simply because others do. She operates on her own terms.”
