Video footage has sparked more conspiracy theories that Melania Trump has a body double .
During her trip with her husband President Donald Trump to Columbus, Ohio, on August 24, FLOTUS’s clothes and hair were the center of attention for the most bizarre reason.
The 48-year-old donned a monochrome ensemble including a polka dot blouse and sunglasses.
But people on social media who believe the theories suggested her alleged stand-in couldn’t get the outfit right.
Fake Melania Trump (right) rumors have resurfaced after her outing August 24 in Ohio with US Donald Trump
Melania fans were not convinced by her polka dot blouse on the outing last week
Melania visited a children’s hospital but other scenes from earlier in the day were not her according to conspiracy theorists
‘Hair colour and hair parting wrong, blouse wrong, jacket collar wrong, logo on sunglasses missing on double … it defo ain’t her,’ one Twitter user mentioned.
Others even analyzed the appearance right down to her posture, poses and weight, with some suggestion the person they were seeing in a video was around 20lbs heavier than Melania and that the giveaway was in her fuller face.
‘What’s with the fake Melania on Trump’s trip to Ohio yesterday?’ one user wrote.’ @ItIsIMac caught it first. I don’t know who that is in the polka dot top but it sure ain’t her at Andrews or at Columbus. MSM claiming it is.’
The White House resident is also known for her silky brunette locks so all eyes were on her supposedly different hairline and locks that appeared to be way darker than the Melania they loved to watch.
Twitter users are convinced she has a stand-in for appearances but are not pleased with how the alleged fake Melania looks
People have been quick to point out her hair, clothing and even the way she gestures
Trump’s appearance has gotten people talking for at least the first time in a year
Trump’s monochrome look did not convince some spectators who thought she switched sunglasses
Some added that if the faux First Lady – who visited a children’s hospital that day -wanted to really do it right, she should avoid a vigorous handshake which is apparently uncharacteristic of Melania.
July’s NATO Summit in Brussels also saw fake Melania resurface.
Last October, social media users also went in with allegations that a Melania clone is somewhere out there.
Critics zeroed in on footage of Trump as he addressed the media about hurricane relief for Puerto Rico that showed the First Lady, wearing her large black sunglasses, standing behind her husband nodding.

The Fake Melania theory was set off with a post on Facebook by Andrea Wagner Barton, which was shared more than 100,000 times
During the press conference, Trump pointed out the presence of his wife even though she was standing in clear view of the cameras.
‘My wife, Melania, who happens to be right here,’ he said.
Conspirators based their theory of a Melania body double on the fact that Trump pointed out the First Lady was there to cover for the fact she was actually somewhere else.
They also claim that the Melania doesn’t appear to look like herself in the footage, specifically questioning the shape of her nose.
