Melania Trump's Recent Controversies

Melania Trump is currently involved in several contentious issues. First, Russian state TV, specifically the Kremlin-controlled channel Russia 1, aired explicit photos of Melania Trump during a prime-time segment of the show '60 Minutes.' The photos, taken from her modeling career, including a 2000 GQ magazine cover, were shown in the context of congratulating her husband, Donald Trump, on his U.S. election victory. This move has raised questions about the motives behind airing such content, given the tight government control over media in Russia[1].

Second, Melania Trump has declined an invitation from outgoing First Lady Jill Biden for a traditional post-election meeting at the White House. This meeting is a long-standing tradition aimed at symbolizing a peaceful transition of power. Melania's decision to skip this meeting is attributed to either a scheduling conflict related to her newly released memoir or her ongoing grievances against the Bidens, particularly over the FBI raid at Mar-a-Lago in 2022. Sources suggest that Melania holds a strong dislike for the Bidens, describing them as 'disgusting'[2][4][5].

This refusal to meet continues a pattern of breaking traditional protocols, as the Trumps also declined to invite the Bidens to a similar meeting in 2020 after Trump lost the election[2][4][5].
