Melania Trump, First Lady of the U.S. appeared Thursday at the White House to make a statement distancing herself from Jeffery Epstein and disputing reports of how she met Donald Trump through Epstein.
It is not clear why she wanted to make this appearance, but some observers say it may have to do with a legal battle with Michael Wolff and allegations he has made.
Melania Trump's legal team threatened to sue Wolff for defamation, demanding a retraction and apology for comments he made alleging her deep involvement in Epstein’s social circle.
In response, Wolff filed a lawsuit in New York Supreme Court, claiming her threats were aimed at suppressing, "harassing, intimidating, punishing or otherwise maliciously inhibiting" his writing.
Wolff previously claimed on a podcast that Epstein may have played a role in introducing Melania to Donald Trump, which her team strongly denied.
As of early 2026, the case has involved procedural disputes, with reports that Wolff's team has faced challenges in serving the lawsuit at her New York residence.
Wolff has stated he intends to use the legal action to examine the Trumps' ties to Epstein, arguing that it is fair to question her history, while the First Lady has described the allegations as "lies".
