Melania Trump sparks new ‘body-double’ conspiracy at Pope Francis’ funeral
Pope Francis, the first Latin American pontiff, passed away on Easter Monday, April 21, 2025, at age 88 in the Vatican’s Casa Santa Marta. Known for his humility and dedication to the poor, his final public appearance was on Easter Sunday, where he delivered his ‘Urbi et Orbi’ blessing to over 50,000 gathered in St. Peter’s Square. The Vatican described his life as one of faithful service to God and the Church.

His funeral drew hundreds of thousands, including over 100 foreign delegations. Among them were Donald Trump and his wife, Melania. Trump faced criticism for wearing a blue suit instead of traditional black, while social media erupted with speculation over whether Melania actually attended, with many claiming a body double was used—a theory that has circulated in the past.

Pope Francis was remembered for his simplicity, compassion, and unwavering commitment to Gospel values.
