Melania Trump Denies Epstein Links

United States First Lady Melania Trump, has firmly denied any connection to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, dismissing circulating rumours as “mean-spirited” and urging that such claims “end today.”

Speaking to reporters at the White House on Thursday, Melania Trump addressed longstanding online speculation linking her to Epstein, including claims that he introduced her to President Donald Trump.

“Any claims linking me to Jeffrey Epstein need to end today,” she said, rejecting the allegations outright. She described the rumours as deliberate attempts to tarnish her reputation, adding that they were “mean-spirited attempts to defame” her.

In a move that caught observers off guard, the First Lady also used the opportunity to call for Congressional hearings focused on survivors of Epstein’s sex trafficking network. While she did not provide specifics, she stressed the importance of giving victims a platform to be heard.

The remarks marked a rare public intervention by Melania Trump on a politically sensitive issue, particularly one tied to Epstein, whose high-profile connections have continued to fuel public scrutiny years after his death.
