And when it comes to politics, she’s similarly tight-lipped.
As she toldGQ, “I chose not to go into politics and policy.
Those policies are my husband’s job.”

As their relationship has progressed, seems like this underlying tension may have become more and more apparent.

The body language is that of a romantic kiss,” Wood says.
In this case, a picture really says a thousand words.
Wood says this can also indicate a lack of affection.
Nevertheless, looking at Melania’s body language when she’s alone tells a story of its own.
Understandably, people were confused as to why this photo was posted in celebration of Melania’s birthday.
Typically birthday photos include some form of celebration or, at the very least, a smile.

That’s the most significant part.”
