Melania's communications director, Stephanie Grisham, made a point of re-tweeting the message, adding, "Straight from FLOTUS herself!"

Melania's last appearance at a public event was on May 10 when she joined President Donald Trump in welcoming home three Americans detained in North Korea at Joint Base Andrews. Melania later went to Walter Reed Military Hospital for a minor kidney procedure on May 14, which her office says was successful.

Many expressed concern over the first lady's well-being during her absence. Some theories on social media claimed she had actually undergone more complicated plastic surgery, while others even guessed she had moved out of the White House or back to New York City. Her office quickly dismissed all those allegations.
