Melania Trump's 2017 Easter Egg Roll: Trump's Hand and Chocolate Delay, Skips Tiffany's Baby Shower in 2025

Edited by: Tetiana Pinchuk Pinchuk

Melania Trump hosted the annual White House Easter Egg Roll on April 17, 2017, marking her first Easter in office with President Donald Trump. The tradition, dating back to 1878, had a few memorable moments.

During the event, Melania was seen reminding President Trump to place his hand over his heart during the national anthem.

Adding to the challenges, the event nearly ran out of chocolate eggs due to a delayed order. White House vendors publicly reminded Melania's team to place the order, citing manufacturing deadlines. This left chocolatiers with significantly less time than usual to prepare the order.

In related news, Melania Trump was absent from Tiffany Trump's baby shower in Miami on April 6, 2025. According to a source, Melania was occupied with her son, Barron Trump, noting that she "has her own schedule, even on weekends." The baby shower was hosted by Ivanka Trump and attended by other family members, including Tiffany's mother, Marla Maples.
