While Donald Trump donned his signature red MAGA hat, Melania’s outfit diverged from the usual patriotic colors, opting instead for a simple black dress paired with her shades. This, in turn, seemed to fuel the resurgence of the long-running rumors that the First Lady used a body double during public appearances — rumors that first gained traction during Donald Trump’s presidency.

The speculation was swift and unrelenting. “That’s a body double, not Melania,” one social media user commented, noting that the woman in the video didn’t smile the way Melania typically does. Another echoed the sentiment, simply stating, “That’s fake Melania.” Dozens of others joined the chorus, commenting “that’s not Melania” beneath the footage.

As the conspiracy theories spread, some users took to posting their own theories and even what they claimed was photographic proof of the supposed body double. “The Melania double looks awfully nervous,” one commenter observed, while another added, “I swear I’m not into the whole body double conspiracy thing, but like… that obviously isn’t Melania.”

However, the theories may have been premature. Other videos from the same day show Melania eventually removing her sunglasses while interacting with supporters, leaving some to question the authenticity of the claims.
