Melania Trump generally remains out of politics and has publicly denied that Jeffrey Epstein introduced her to Donald Trump. The only known source for the introduction claim is Jeffrey Epstein, who is not considered reliable. Melania pushed back against the rumor via social media and secured retractions and apologies from the Daily Beast and James Carville. Her lawyer called other floated allegations about Epstein ties "false, disparaging, defamatory, and inflammatory." The Trumps say they met at a Fashion Week party in fall 1998 and recounted meeting at the same party on Larry King Live in 2005.
"Well no, we were both at the same party and that's how we met," Melania said. "He came to me."
"They were saying, 'Look, there's so and so,'" Donald recalled. "I said, 'Forget about her. Who's the one on the left?' And it was Melania."
"false, disparaging, defamatory, and inflammatory."
