Melania Trump caused quite a commotion on social media when she was spotted wearing a strikingly large straw hat at her son Barron Trump‘s graduation last week. The former first lady, 54, sat beside her husband, ex-president Donald Trump and her father Viktor Knavs at the Oxbridge Academy ceremony in West Palm Beach, Florida.
Soon after images of Melania and her family at the event emerged on X (formerly Twitter), many users began joking that the Slovenian-American model was using her hat to “hide” from Donald, 77.

Melania Trump Is Accused Of Hiding From Donald Trump After Her Large Straw Hat At Her Son's Graduation Goes Viral
"Melania thinks she can hide under that hat...." one user tweeted as another quipped: "I like that she's so ashamed to be next to him that she's dressed like she's two kids in a trenchcoat trying to sneak into an adult movie." Someone else added: "She put on that big hat by choice. So no one would see the disgust in her eyes as she looked to the left by accident."
To complete her get-up for the occasion, Melania donned a white Michael Kors Collection double crepe pencil skirt, which she paired with a navy Dior 30 Montaigne double breasted wool and silk blazer. Her standout bee-detail lamé boater hat is from Gucci.
The proud mom beamed while supporting Barron, 18, and her hair was fashioned into a sleek updo beneath the hat. To top it all off, she stepped out in white suede Manolo Blahnik pumps. As for the twice-impeached former president, he donned a navy suit that matched his wife's blazer.
As reported by OK! Magazine, Donald expressed concern to Judge Juan Merchan about the possibility of missing his youngest son's graduation, but he ultimately managed to attend, albeit tardily.
In a May 17th post on his "Twitter clone" platform, Truth Social, Donald wrote: "Going to Barron’s High School Graduation." The businessman went on: "Great student, wonderful boy! Very exciting!!!"
According to political analyst Ron Filipkowski, Donald barely made it with only "minutes to spare" before the ceremony began. "The always late Donald Trump barely made it to Barron’s graduation this morning on time before the ceremony started," Filipkowski tweeted as the images went viral.
