  • Melania received praised for her outfit, which included a red leather coat and towering zebra-print heels
  • The Georgia rally is the first major public event Trump has taken part in since election night

Melania Trump held hands with President Donald Trump Saturday when they joined a campaign rally in Georgia, his first since losing to President-elect Joe Biden.

White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany shared a video on Twitter of Trump and Melania at the rally in Valdosta, Georgia, where they asked people to vote for Georgia Senators Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue ahead of their runoff elections on Jan. 5. In the clip, Melania can be seen smiling while walking hand-in-hand with her husband as they took the stage.

The first lady was radiant in her red leather coat, black dress and towering zebra-print heels. Trump sported a dark blue coat and matching suit, with his signature red tie.

The Georgia rally is the first major public event Trump has taken part in since election night over a month ago.

Netizens flooded McEnany's post with comments praising the couple, with many gushing over Melania's look. "Wow she’s beautiful," one Twitter user wrote, while another commented, "She’s so gorgeous."

"I love these people," a third user tweeted. "Our beautiful and wonderful FLOTUS!” another wrote.

"@FLOTUS @MELANIATRUMP is stunning," a netizen added.

"I love them more than I ever thought I'd love a president and first lady! God bless you three!" another user wrote, wishing Melania, Trump and McEnany well.

However, some Twitter users were not happy to see Trump and Melania not wearing masks during the event. Both had contracted COVID-19 in October, and some netizens felt they didn't learn their lesson after their ordeal.

"Still no masks!" one wrote. "Where are the masks!? Wow," another tweeted.

Their campaign rally appearance comes after Melania's chief of staff, Stephanie Grisham, denied speculations that the first lady is considering a divorce after leaving the White House.

Omarosa Manigault Newman, a former political aide to the POTUS, earlier wrote about the matter in her 2018 book "Unhinged: An Insider's Account of the Trump White House."

“If Melania were to try to pull the ultimate humiliation and leave him while he’s in office, he would find a way to punish her,” she wrote. “In my opinion, Melania is counting every minute until he is out of the office and she can divorce him.”

Others who have worked with the Trumps, including the president's former lawyer Michael Cohen, also believe that Melania is not planning to end her marriage with her husband.

"I don’t think Melania leaves Donald. She’s very willingly complicit in his schemes and holds his beliefs as her own," Cohen said. "Those two deserve each other."
