Melania Trump has prompted new speculation about her relationship with Ivanka Trump after telling a 12 March event honouring women leaders in America that she is 'often alone at the top', a line that quickly drew fresh attention because it came from the US first lady while Donald Trump hosted entrepreneurs, public servants and working mothers.
The speculation did not begin this week. Reports cited tensions between Melania and her stepdaughter dating back to the first Trump administration, with both women long portrayed as occupying uneasy space around the same political brand. None of that has been independently confirmed, and the feud claims remain just that unless stronger evidence emerges.
