As far as Melania Trump, wife of US president Donald Trump, is concerned, feelings should be worn on one's sleeve. What she did today was to not stand with the President, instead choosing to walk, and stand, arm-in-arm with a soldier and that too under an umbrella. It is one of the strongest signals yet that there is trouble in the air in the couple's life. The First Lady, a fashion icon, in her own right, has seemingly shown a bit of disdain for The Donald and not just that, she even cocked a snook at maintaining social distancing norms during an official outing at quite a sombre event as she was not wearing a facemask. The photo of Melania Trump and the soldier shows that he was wearing a proper protective mask. All this at a time when rumour mills are working apace hinting at an impending divorce between the couple who have a son together - Barron. The event itself was a visit to the Arlington National Cemetery for the Veterans Day wreath-laying ceremony, Daily Mail reported.

Tongues were wagging also because there was actually a precedent that could have been followed - just last year, the couple was at the same event, but then they were standing next to each other, but not this time. The message from Melaia was loud and clear.
