First Lady Melania Trump is preparing to sue Hunter Biden for over $1 billion, accusing him of spreading false and harmful claims. Her legal team insists they are committed to securing apologies and corrections from anyone spreading misinformation about her.
In a letter to Hunter Biden’s attorney, Melania’s lawyers called his statements “false, disparaging, defamatory, and inflammatory.” They demanded a public retraction and apology, warning that failure to comply would trigger legal action. The letter also claims that Hunter’s statements caused “overwhelming financial and reputational harm” to the First Lady.
How Melania Trump and Congressional Leaders Responded
Hunter made the claims during a recent interview with filmmaker Andrew Callaghan. He suggested that unreleased documents connected to Jeffrey Epstein could implicate Donald Trump and claimed Epstein introduced Melania to him.
Melania and Donald Trump have consistently shared their story of how they met—none of which mentions Jeffrey Epstein. They first met in November 1998 at a Fashion Week party hosted by Italian entrepreneur Paolo Zampolli, founder of ID Models. Donald, recently separated from his second wife, Marla Maples, and father of four, met Melania, then 28, and asked for her phone number.
Melania later called him after a Caribbean photo shoot. Their first official date was dinner followed by a visit to Moomba, a popular New York celebrity hotspot. Melania recalled, “I was struck by his energy. He has an amazing sense of vitality.”
