"We have, in consultation with the author, removed several passages of the book that referenced unverified claims about the First Lady of the United States, Melania Trump," HarperCollins UK said in a statement Tuesday. "Copies of the book that included those references are being permanently removed from distribution. HarperCollins UK apologizes to the First Lady.""
"The first lady's attorneys "are actively ensuring immediate retractions and apologies by those who spread malicious, defamatory falsehoods," a spokesperson said. "The true account of how the first lady met President Trump is in her bestselling book, 'Melania,' " the spokesperson added. That book says she first met her future husband at a New York City party in 1998 and was introduced to him by another person, not Epstein."

Her spokesperson says the true account appears in her bestselling book Melania, which states she met Trump at a 1998 New York City party and was introduced by another person, not Epstein. HarperCollins UK removed passages from an unauthorized Prince Andrew biography that referenced unverified claims and apologized, and copies including those references are being pulled from distribution. The Trump legal team demanded removals and apologies, while the administration resists releasing more FBI files related to Epstein.
