Melania Trump is not linked to sex offender and paedophile Jeffrey Epstein in any way, at least that’s what she claims. In a rare presser she held recently, the First Lady of the United States (FLOTUS) denied any links of any sort to the deceased convicted trafficker. But an X account, with the name Amanda Ungaro, claiming to be an Epstein survivor and a “longtime acquaintance” of FLOTUS for at least two decades, has threatened to expose Melania’s “hidden connections”.
“Hello Melania, I was around you for 20 years. You knew I was inside ICE, and you know what hurts after all this time? I stayed close to your family — your mother and your father — not because of you, but because of them, at events and everything else,” the post on Ungaro’s account read. “So shut your mouth when speaking about me. Because I will expose everything I know,” she warned.
The veracity of the account making posts against Melania Trump couldn’t be verified independently by India Today Digital. However, the account carries a Blue Tick, and is based in Latin America, and has been active since December 2025.
Melania’s remarks on Epstein came as a surprise even for White House officials. “Some White House officials were stunned by the timing of the First Lady’s remarks, which sparked rumours that she was trying to get out ahead of something,” Senior White Correspondent of CNN Kristen Holmes posted on X.
According to Holmes, one official said there was disagreement among those close to Melania Trump as to whether or not to go through with the remarks, given that the story had died down. “But stories linking the First Lady to Epstein were still circulating online, and Melania Trump wanted to go on the record with a firm denial”, she added.
US President Donald Trump also said he did not know “anything” about his wife’s plans to speak on the Epstein files.
The abruptness of the move has fuelled a wave of online speculation, much of it centering on Amanda Ungaro.
WHO IS AMANDA UNGARO? IS SHE MELANIA TRUMP’S LONGTIME ASSOCIATE?
The warning post shared in the name of Amanda Ungaro to Melania Trump went viral on the internet, creating a buzz around the connection of US First Lady Melania, US President Donald Trump, and Epstein.
Amanda Ungaro is a model and is reportedly the partner of a former modelling agent and Trump ally, Paolo Zampolli. Zampolli is the person who brought Melania to the US while she was a model and introduced her to Donald Trump.
Ungaro was discovered by Paolo Zampolli when he was a modelling agent. Zampolli began grooming her for a modelling career and recruited her to come to the US.
In an interview with Brazil’s O Globo newspaper, Amanda Ungaro shared her first encounter with Jeffrey Epstein. She said that she flew from Paris to New York on Jeffrey Epstein’s private jet at the age of 17. Ungaro directly stated she boarded the plane with her agent Jean-Luc Brunel.
“About 30 girls, beautiful and very young, I felt immediate discomfort and wanted to get off the plane,” Ungaro described the journey in Epstein’s Flight.
“I sensed something was wrong, but did not fully understand the abuse at the time”, she added. Although she has not accused Epstein of personally assaulting her, she has positioned herself as a victim of Epstein’s modelling ecosystem. According to news reports, the couple was separated in 2023.
Ungaro, in an interview, said, “At New Year’s parties at Mar-a-Lago, we and one other couple were the only ones at the table with Trump and Melania.” She also claimed that she was close to Melania and Trump due to Zampolli.
Later, in 2025, Amanda Ungaro was arrested in Miami for running an alleged unlicenced cosmetic surgery or Botox clinic. Shortly after the arrest, she was transferred to ICE immigration detention. She remained in ICE custody for more than three months. In September 2025, Ungaro herself requested that an immigration judge order her deportation back to Brazil.
Even though the posts of Amanda Ungaro are viral, there is no public evidence confirming that Ungaro’s statements prompted Melania’s decision to speak publicly.
