Melania Trump avoids kiss from Donald Trump at White House

During an official ceremony in the White House Rose Garden, Melania Trump turned her head as President Donald Trump attempted to kiss her, resulting in him kissing the side of her hair instead. The incident occurred during the signing of an executive order aimed at establishing a new division within the National Institutes of Health to advance women’s health research.

Body language experts noted that the First Lady appeared detached and focused on her public duties during the exchange. While the moment has gone viral and prompted social media speculation regarding the couple's relationship, the two remained holding hands for the remainder of the official event.
