NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Former first lady Melania Trump revealed on Sunday, September 8, in the teaser for her upcoming memoir 'Melania', that the 2020 election results "changed our lives forever" and also talked about the attempts to "silence" her husband, former president Donald Trump.

She also said, "As a private person who has often been the subject of public scrutiny and misrepresentation, I feel a responsibility to clarify the facts."

Notably, Trump’s lawyers argued about "free speech" in a failed attempt to get election interference charges against him dropped in Georgia, while the GOP Presidential candidate has also decried gag orders in his other various legal cases, according to The Daily Beast.

The teaser video gave no new information on what 'Melania' the memoir will reveal about its author. Her website says the book contains "stories and images never before shared with the public", presumably those stories aren’t about the cost of food and gas, the media outlet added.

Melania Trump's book cover design's uncanny resemblance to 'Chanel Catwalk'

Melania Trump’s memoir 'Melania' cover appears similar to that of 'Chanel Catwalk' - a fashion tome that has been on sale for years, per The Independent.

The book's title appears in white on a plain black background on the cover. The design and font appear similar to the 2020 book by French author Patrick Mauries, The Daily Beast stated.



 

Melania was criticized for plagiarism in 2016 after parts of her address at the Republican National Convention bore striking similarities to Michelle Obama’s 2008 Democratic National Convention speech.



 

Melania wrote on X on August 25, "Our lives are shaped by our experiences, challenges, and achievements. For the first time, I share my journey with you, in my new memoir, Melania."

The memoir, which will be released on October 1, is described by her office as "a powerful and inspiring story of a woman who has carved her own path, overcome adversity and defined personal excellence."
