Earlier in the evening Trump compared his own marriage to his parents’ 63-year union and joked that he and Melania would not match that milestone, a remark that drew surprised laughs from the crowd.
The clip circulated widely on X, where commenters questioned the couple’s rapport. The story also echoed past claims from a biographer who reported sources saying the pair have a strained relationship. Trump later criticized Jimmy Kimmel after the host made a separate joke about Melania.
