She kept the hat on when meeting the royals, it covered her face in many of the pictures. Irish_Dem Sep 18 #1

Do you have a source for that? CTyankee Sep 18 #2

Here is a picture on reddit, with the same speculation: Irish_Dem Sep 18 #3

We don't even know if that is Melania.
She has used body doubles before.

I saw pictures of one once.
The gal was 20 years younger than Melania and let Trump kiss her.
Ha.

But Melania probably might not want to miss the royal treatment at a real palace.

Or do you just surmise it?

I think others here at DU would also like to know more about it.

You can also google the topic, and see Melania's pictures wearing the hat at Windsor.
Her face is covered by the hat in most of the pictures I have seen.

You can also google the topic of Melania and her body doubles.
