After the White House correspondents’ dinner shooting, Jimmy Kimmel came under criticism for a rather insensitive comment towards Melania Trump after he referred to her as an “expectant widow” during a parody monologue aired days before the incident.
The remark was made during a skit in which Kimmel pretended to host the event while discussing the Trumps’ connections to Jeffrey Epstein. In the segment, he said, “Our first lady Melania is here. So beautiful, Mrs Trump, you have a glow like an expectant widow.”
