We are republishing this story, which originally made headlines back in December 2024. Recently, a photo showing former President Donald Trump and former First Lady Melania Trump sharing a kiss at a baseball game has gone viral on social media, just days before Donald Trump’s upcoming inauguration scheduled for January 20, 2025. This public display of affection is especially rare and caught many people by surprise, since Melania Trump maintained a relatively low profile and stayed mostly out of the public eye during the 2024 presidential campaign.
Supporters of the Trumps quickly took to social media platforms to praise the photo, describing the moment as sweet, touching, and romantic. They expressed positive feelings about seeing the couple share a tender moment in public. However, not everyone agreed with this sentiment. Some observers questioned whether this affectionate display contradicted previous reports and rumors suggesting a distance or strain in the relationship between Donald and Melania Trump.
This is not the first time the couple has attracted public attention with such a gesture. The Trumps had previously made headlines when they shared a kiss during the Republican National Convention, an event that also sparked widespread commentary and media coverage.
