Millions tuned in to watch Donald Trump’s inauguration, including his wife, Melania Trump. While many were focused on the ceremony, some viewers took to social media to discuss a conspiracy theory about Melania having a body double.The focus of the theory was Melania’s attire: a dark coat, black leather gloves, and a wide-brimmed hat. Some joked that her look,
resembled the McDonald’s “Hamburglar,” while others claimed it added fuel to the body double rumors. Proponents of the theory argue that Melania left Donald years ago and a double now attends public events with him. Some believe this could be linked to security concerns after an assassination attempt on Trump, though there’s no proof to support the theory. One commenter joked that her hat only reinforced the rumors, tweeting, “That Bolero hat Melania is wearing won’t do much to dispel the rumors #TrumpInauguration2025.”
