Video of Melania Trump scowling sparks #FreeMelania

Updated

A video of first lady Melania Trump is making the rounds of social media and has prompted the hashtag #FreeMelania.

In the video, Melania can be seen smiling at her husband, President Donald Trump, during Friday's inauguration ceremony, but the moment he looks away, the smile disappears into a much more somber scowl.

The video takes place as North Carolina Rev. Franklin Graham tells Trump, "It's my prayer that God will bless you, your family, your administration and may He bless America." Trump smiles over at his wife, who meets the smile all the way up until he looks away and then loses it immediately.

"It really feels like he is holding her hostage," one Twitter user speculated.

What's worse, the video has been circulating since a day after the couple celebrated their twelfth wedding anniversary.
