When Melania and Donald Trump returned as President and First Lady at the Inauguration their relationship was placed back in the spotlight.

Particularly when Melania's decision to wear a wide brimmed hat blocked her husband from fully kissing her, resulting in an awkward air kiss as Trump leaned as close to his wife as the hat would allow.
