Slovenian magazine Suzy has issued a public apology to the First Lady of the United States of America, Melania Trump, after reporting that she worked as a 'female escort' (prostitute) while modeling.

In an article published in the August 2016 issue, it was said that Melania had previously worked for a fashion agency, which also provided 'escort' services to elite figures.

"The text was understood as if Melania Trump had worked as an escort. We have no evidence of this, so we apologize."

"It was not our intention to hurt or offend Mrs. Trump," he wrote, among other things, in the apology published by the magazine.
