The former partner of a Trump envoy links Melania Trump to Jeffrey Epstein: report

Former Brazilian model Amanda Ungaro made claims linking First Lady Melania Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, in a since-deleted X post.

In a WhatsApp recording shared online, Ungaro accused her former partner Paolo Zampolli —a President Donald Trump appointee to the Kennedy Center's Board of Trustees— of falsely claiming he introduced the Trumps in 1998, The Daily Beast reports. Ungaro alleged Melania Trump was an Epstein escort and that Epstein introduced her to Donald Trump.

Ungaro explained she obtained this information from conversations she had with Zampolli over 20 years ago.

Melania Trump publicly denied these claims during an April press conference, stating "I am not Epstein's victim," and asserting she met Trump by chance at a New York City party in 1998, with details documented in her memoir.

Zampolli dismissed Ungaro's claims as a "disgrace," expressing concern for her mental health.

Ungaro is currently in a custody dispute with Zampolli and has accused him of using his influence to arrange her immigration arrest.
