KEY POINTS

  • Melania Trump and Donald Trump's body language was recently analyzed
  • Melania Trump and Donald Trump's body language is different from other first couples
  • Melania Trump doesn't seem to like Donald Trump 

Melania Trump and Donald Trump’s interactions are very different from the first couples that came before them, particularly the Obamas and the Clintons. But over time, their body language has reportedly changed.

While speaking with Express, body language expert Judi James said that some netizens couldn’t help but wonder if the FLOTUS really likes her husband because the POTUS tends to dominate over his wife.

The first lady’s Sphinx-like demeanor, on the other hand, has not also shown apparent signs of liking the POTUS or being affectionate towards him.

When the POTUS was named as the president of the United States, the public assumed that the bar had been raised for good in terms of Trump and the FLOTUS having an even status, a mutually-respected team or a double act. But it didn’t take Trump supporters and critics to realize that the first couple’s roles were seemingly from the Jurassic era.

But after two years in office, James said that netizens have become more used to the POTUS’ body language displays. There have also been some signals that his relationship with Melania has evolved. Compared to a few years ago, the FLOTUS now seemingly holds more power than her husband.

“Her perceived status has changed so that they are now seen as a more emphatic double act or power couple, and their subtler signals suggest she is holding surprisingly more power in the relationship that people first thought,” James said.

The body language expert also thinks that the first couple holds hands in public more often now than they did before. However, her observations still didn’t stop some netizens to think that Melania and Donald are not in love.

In fact, some netizens are convinced that it’s only a matter of time before the first couple file for divorce.

“Melania Trump does not give an [expletive] about Donald Trump and only wants him to remain in office so the money will keep flowing. As soon as Trump is removed, Melania will dump him and file for a divorce. Melania has committed adultery several times and has a lover in NYC,” Twitter user @WHSCI said.
