Melania Trump is married to the President of the United States, Donald Trump. She is the step-mother of Ivanka Trump and an expert revealed how they have both changed since entering the
White House. What have they done? Through their political roles, both women have appeared at events where they will often speak. Comparing recent speeches of Melania and Ivanka with ones

‘ah'. He explained: "With Melania, there is very little change – which in itself suggests that she has persisted with a rehearsed and scripted approach. "With this approach,
she’ll find it difficult to inject her full personality into her delivery, due to her reliance on a tele-prompter. "Her audience can only get a small sense of who she is, but not a full
grip." Melania appears to rely on speeches means it is difficult for her entire personality to shine through. MELANIA TRUMP: FIVE FACTS ABOUT THE USA’S FIRST LADY LANGUAGES Mum-of-one
