First Lady Melania Trump got the internet talking after stepping off Air Force One wearing large sunglasses despite the dark sky. The appearance quickly went viral, with many questioning why Donald Trump’s wife chose nighttime shades during the public arrival.
Melania Trump spotted wearing sunglasses at night
Donald Trump’s wife, Melania, and got photographed at Joint Base Andrews after spending Valentine’s Day weekend at Mar-a-Lago. Photos show her walking across the tarmac in oversized, boxy sunglasses as she exited Air Force One late Monday evening. She continued wearing the shades while boarding Marine One and kept them on after landing on the White House lawn.
Given the pitch-black night sky, the peculiar fashion choice immediately caught the attention of social media users. The consensus among many online was one of pure confusion. “Why is Melania wearing sunglasses in the dark,” questioned one user on X (formerly Twitter). Another self-proclaimed fan expressed their bewilderment, writing, “I‘m a Melania fan, but I just need to ask, why is she wearing sunglasses in the dark?”
The speculation didn’t stop there. The unusual accessory prompted some users to resurrect a long-debunked conspiracy theory that has followed the Slovenian-born first lady for years. The baseless hoax suggests that the former model is sometimes replaced by a body double for official engagements. “That’s probably one of the many ‘Melania’s’ employed by Trump,” one person posted, while another added, “Sunglasses at night = fake melania.”
However, not everyone took the late-night eyewear so seriously. Some saw the humor in the situation, suggesting the First Lady might simply be enjoying a private joke. “Melania wearing sunglasses at night cracks me up,” one user wrote. “Ya know she does it to tick off the press”

The fashion buzz happened shortly after Donald Trump spoke highly of his wife’s work while aboard Air Force One. Fielding questions from reporters before their departure, he praised her new documentary film, Melania.
