The White House unveiled the official portrait of First Lady Melania Trump on Monday, captured by Belgian photographer Régine Mahaux in the Yellow Oval Room, just one day before her and President Donald Trump’s 20th wedding anniversary.
The initial release mistakenly listed the year as 2024, but the First Lady’s office later clarified the correct date.
This release follows the earlier unveiling of portraits for President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance, ahead of the inauguration.
Born outside the U.S., Melania is the second First Lady from abroad and the first to become a naturalised citizen in America.
In addition to her role at the inauguration, she also joined President Trump in North Carolina to assess hurricane damage. However, her specific focus for this term remains unclear, although she has previously championed children’s causes and expressed strong support for military families.
