The famous Rose Garden was designed in the 1960s under the supervision of Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis.



 

Among many who criticized the redesign move, one of them were Presidential historian and author Michael Beschloss, who said, “Evisceration of White House Rose Garden was completed a year ago this month, and here was the grim result—decades of American history made to disappear."

However, Melania took to X (formerly Twitter) to hit back over his comment, saying, “.@BeschlossDC has proven his ignorance by showing a picture of the Rose Garden in its infancy. The Rose Garden is graced with a healthy & colorful blossoming of roses.”



 

The former first lady's memoir 'Melania' is set to be released on on September 24.
