Melania Trump Threatens $1B Lawsuit Against Hunter Biden Over Epstein Claim
So here’s what’s going on. Melania Trump, the First Lady of the United States, has made it very clear she’s ready to take Hunter Biden to court — and not for a small sum. We’re talking about more than one billion dollars in damages. This all started after Hunter Biden claimed, in a recent interview, that Melania had been introduced to Donald Trump by the late Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted sex offender. That statement, according to Melania’s lawyers, is not just false but also defamatory, inflammatory, and damaging to her reputation.
In the interview, Hunter Biden said the alleged connection between Melania and Epstein was “wide and deep,” even attributing some of his claim to journalist Michael Wolff, who has a history of writing critically about Donald Trump. But here’s the problem — there’s no evidence this introduction ever happened. In fact, the Daily Beast, which once ran an article suggesting a similar connection, retracted it completely after Melania’s legal team sent them a letter disputing the contents and the framing. They even apologized for any confusion the story might have caused.

Melania’s attorneys argue that these comments from Hunter Biden have caused her overwhelming financial and reputational harm. They say he has a “history of trading on the names of others,” and that his decision to repeat this claim was nothing more than a publicity grab. The demand is straightforward: retract the statements, issue a full apology, or face the lawsuit. A deadline for compliance had been set for early August — and according to sources, Hunter Biden didn’t meet it. That means legal action is now on the table.
For context, Melania has previously shared that she met Donald Trump in 1998 at a party hosted by a modeling agency founder, not through Epstein. At that time, Trump had recently separated from his second wife, Marla Maples. Melania even recalled not giving him her phone number at first because he was there with another date.
This lawsuit threat comes at a time when there’s already heightened public attention on the so-called “Epstein files” — documents related to Epstein’s criminal investigation. Before being re-elected, Donald Trump had said he would release them if he returned to office, but just last month, the FBI and the Justice Department stated no incriminating client list exists.
Melania’s team is making it clear they will challenge anyone who spreads what they see as malicious and false allegations about her. As her communications director put it, they are “actively ensuring immediate retractions and apologies” from anyone making such claims. In short, this isn’t just about one comment from Hunter Biden — it’s about drawing a hard line in the sand over her public image and personal history.
