Ever since a video surfaced of First Lady Melania Trump's reaction to her husband on Inauguration Day, people have begun to wonder about the state of the President's relationship with his wife.
Though she starts off smiling at Trump as he's getting sworn in as POTUS, people noticed Melania's face slowly morphed into a miserable-looking expression—causing people to wonder whether she's not happy with her powerful husband.
