Melania Trump did not appear to give Jill Biden a gift as she greeted the outgoing First Lady and President Joe Biden on Inauguration Day.
The scene occurred Monday morning as Melania and her husband, Donald Trump, shook hands with The Biden’s on the steps of the White House, just hours before he was to be sworn in as the 47th president of the United States.
In 2017, Melania made headlines when she presented Michelle Obama with a blue box from Tiffany & Co. gave as she met the couple in front of the White House.
Michelle awkwardly took the gift and exclaimed, “You brought a gift!” and had trouble figuring out where to put it.
Her husband, Barack, walked in, grabbed the box and told them, “I’ll take care of protocol here.”
Michelle later revealed what was in the box during a 2018 appearance on the now-defunct Ellen DeGeneres Show.
βIt was a beautiful setting,β Michelle said during the performance People.
‘Well, there’s a whole protocol. I mean, this is like a state visit, so they tell you you’re going to do this, they stand here,β Michelle continued.

“You’ve never received this as a gift before, so I think it’s okay.”
This time, however, it looks like Melania didn’t offer the same gift to Jill, or seemingly any gift for that matter.
She showed up empty-handed on Monday morning, although it is unclear whether she gave Jill anything behind the scenes.
When the couple arrived, Biden greeted Trump with just two words: “Welcome home.”
The incoming and former first lady stunned in monochrome looks for the inauguration, with Melania wearing a navy blue coat and Jill a purple tie-waist coat.
Melania’s outfit was created by American designer Adam Lippes.
She paired it with navy blue suede Manolo Blahnik heels and black leather gloves.
The real star of the show, however, was a large wide-brimmed navy blue hat with a flat top and white trim around it, designed by Eric Javits, another American brand.

The hat tied her entire look together as she wore an elegant bun and small diamond studs.
The two couples will enjoy coffee and tea at the White House residence before driving together to the Capitol for Trump’s inauguration.
When Biden leaves the White House, it will be his last time as president. Trump takes the reins at noon ET.
Before the president-elect arrived, Biden told reporters he was feeling “good.” It’s a beautiful day.’ He said his message for the day was “joy” and “hope.”
He also confirmed that he has written a letter for Trump that will be waiting for the new president when he enters the Oval Office. When Biden was asked what was in it, he replied: “That’s between Trump and me.”
