Melania Trump, once recognized for her composed and unreadable demeanor, lit up with a radiant smile, exuding warmth and admiration as she watched her husband speak.
She responded to Donald Trump’s acknowledgment with a beaming expression, described by body language expert Judi James as that of “a smitten teenager.”
During his address, Trump made a point to highlight Melania’s dedication, telling the audience, “I want to recognize another person who has devoted herself to foster care, community, she works so hard on it. Very loving person, our magnificent First Lady of the United States.”
