Brazilian model Amanda Ungaro has surfaced in global headlines after allegedly threatening to “expose” information related to Melania Trump following her public denial of any links to Jeffrey Epstein.
Melania Trump walked up to a podium this week and did something no first lady has ever done.
She denied knowing Jeffrey Epstein .
un prompted , unscheduled , a suprise press conference just to say, i was not his victim , i was not his participant..
The lies linking me with the disgraceful Jeffrey Epstein need to end today, i never been friends with Epstein, Donald and i were invited to the same parties as Epstein from time to time since overlapping in social circles is common in New York city and Palm Beach.
To be clear, i never had a relationship with Epstein or his accomplice, Maxwell,my email reply to Maxwell cannot be categorized as anything more than casual correspondence.
My polite reply to her email doesn’t amount to anything more than as trivial note.
I call on Congress to provide the women who have been victimized by Epstein with the public hearing specifically centered around the survivors, give this victims their opportunity to testify under oath in front of Congress with the power of sworn testimony.
Each and every women should have her day to tell story in public if she wishes and then her testimony should be permanently entered into the congressional record.
Washington didn’t know what to make of it.
But within hours a verified account on X bearing the name Amanda Ungaro fired back with a public threat.
Claiming 20 years of proximity to the first lady and promising to quote ” expose everything she knows,you haven’t heard of Amanda Ungaro.
But she says she’s been in the room for 20 years.
She’s Brazilian , a model and she was pulled into the American dream the same way Melania was by the same man .
Paolo Zampolli, modeling agent ,Trump loyalist, the man credited with discovering Melania , bringing her to america and handing her quite literally to Donald Trump,Zampolli found Ungaro, too , recruited her , brought her over.
And for years she sat at the same table the Mar- a – Lago table.
the new year’s eve table, the one with donald and Melania at the head of it.
They separated in 2023, but the memories those she kept.
Here’s where it gets dark…
Ungaro says that at 17 years old she boarded Jeffrey Epstein’s private Jet .
Paris to New york.
Her agent, ,jean – luc Brunel was with her , so with 30 other girls.
” Beautiful and very young” she told Brazil’s O Globo newspaper.
” I felt immediate discomfort and wanted to get off the plane,i sensed something was wrong, but i didn’t not fully understand the abuse at the time.”
She doesn’t accuse Epstein of assaulting her directly
But she calls herself a product of his machine, the modeling ecosystem he and Brunel built specifically to trafficing young women.
Brunel is dead, Epstein is dead, but Ungaro is very much alive and she’s talking.
Fast forward to 2025, Ungaro is arrested in Miami, the charge running an alleged unlicensed cosmetic surgery clinic. .
Botox, procedures,no license.
And just like that she’s not just a defendant, she’s a detainee.
ICE picks her up , she spends more than 3 months in immigration detention .
In September 2025 she asks a judge to just deport her.
” Send me back to Brazil, i’m done.”
And that should have been the end of it , then Melania opened her mouth.
A verified account blue tick active since December 2025, somewhere in Latin America, the name Amanda Ungaro.
The target the first lady of the United states.
No vague accusations no attorney -drafted statement no carefully worded press release ,just a women , a name and a threat.
Nobody asked Melania Trump to hold tha press conference,no formal accusation had been filed,no lawsuit, no congressional hearing, no subpoena.
She walked up to that podium on her own.
And a women who says she spent 20 years inside that world at those tables, at those parties, beside that family watched it happen from somewhere in Latin America and decided she had something to say.
The question isn’t whether Amanda Ungaro can prove what she knows,the question is why did the first lady of the United States feel the need to deny it first ?
Thjat answer we’re still we still waiting for it.
