Jan. 26 (UPI) — The Daily Telegraph in Britain said it agreed to pay “substantial damages” and apologized to Melania Trump for “false statements” in an article about the first lady’s life.
The story entitled “The mystery of Melania” ran in last Saturday’s Telegraph magazine. The piece described the “most private and enigmatic” of presidential wives after interviews with “White House insiders, Slovenian school friends and photographers.”
The newspaper on Saturday said the article on Donald Trump’s wife should not have been published.
“We apologise unreservedly to The First Lady and her family for any embarrassment caused by our publication of these allegations,” the newspaper wrote.
