A new conspiracy theory is spreading like wild fire on social media, with users believing that US First Lady Melania Trump is using a body double for public appearances with US president Donald Trump.
The suspicion started when actress Andrea Barton shared on Facebook some footage of President Trump addressingthe media about hurricane relief for Puerto Rico and a nuclear deal with Iran alongside his wife.
In the video, the First Lady's appearance is well hidden under a large coat and sunglasses, with conspiracy theorists claiming she made effort to cover herself up because she was someone else.

"Will the real Melania please stand up?" Barton writes.
