Melania Trump once gave her husband, President Donald Trump, four-word advice on her birthday, claims a lip-reading expert.

The First Lady celebrates her birthday on April 26 every year. Last year, when she turned 55, she spent her day with her husband, President Trump, in Rome, Italy. However, the pair was not on vacation together. Instead, they were attending Pope Francis’ funeral.

About 250,000 people gathered at St.Peter’s Square to pay their respects and bid farewell to the late Pope, who had passed away on Easter Monday. Trump and Melania were highly visible on camera as they sat alongside other dignitaries, world leaders, and members of the royal family.

Melania’s Advice to Trump on Her Last Birthday

The solemn occasion included a three-hour mass, during which worshippers were asked to “offer each other a sign of peace” by shaking hands with those who were near them. However, it was seen that Trump did not follow the directions to offer a handshake to the people beside him.

It was at that moment that Melania appeared to nudge Trump to take part in the process.

Forensic lip reader Nicola Hickling, who interpreted the exchange between the first couple, told MailOnline that Melania advised Trump to greet others, following which the POTUS hesitantly extended his hand to French president Emmanuel Macron.

“You should do it,” Melania allegedly whispered in Trump's ear, according to Hickling. The lip reader claimed that Melania repeated her suggestion until Trump finally complied.

Melania Trump's advice to Trump at Pope Francis' funeral last year.

Trump Interacts with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky

Before the religious service began, Trump was seen greeting and conversing with several dignitaries. However, a particular moment drew significant attention - Trump speaking with Volodymyr Zelensky.

The brief private exchange between the POTUS and the Ukrainian President just a few moments before the funeral stood out to viewers. The Ukrainian presidency shared pictures of the two leaders speaking privately, without aides present, as they met in the grand setting of St. Peter’s Basilica at the Vatican.

Trump and Zelensky reportedly pulled up two chairs and sat only a few meters from where the Pope’s mortal remains rested, remaining there until the ceremony began.

Melania Trump’s Alleged “Side Eye” to Trump

Apart from their earlier exchange, the President and the First Lady were also seen interacting during the ceremony.

For instance, Trump reportedly mentioned to Melania which dignitaries and attendees he wanted to approach at the ceremony. Hickling also interpreted what the President was whispering to his wife during the hours-long gathering.

According to Hickling’s deciphering, Trump allegedly said, “I’ll go over and speak to him.” While Melania did not respond verbally to Trump, she reportedly gave him a “side eye.”
