Melania’s ‘Dear Putin’ Letter & The 'Marry Someone Smarter' Debate

18 Aug 2025

Description

Donald Trump, the world’s “greatest dealmaker” (his words), has somehow managed to walk away from Vladimir Putin with... not a lot so far in his bid to end the war in Ukraine. And that's despite Melania's handwritten 'letter of peace' to the Russian leader. Then there's a red carpet cameo and a secret backseat meeting. Amelia Lester is here to explain all. Plus, comedian Matt Rife has been cancelled… again. This time, it’s thanks to an e.l.f. cosmetics ad campaign that proves there is such a thing as bad publicity. And Taylor and Travis: he plays the role of the goofy himbo, she’s the sensible mastermind. Their New Heights interview has us asking—should you always be the smarter one in your relationship? Holly, Jessie and Amelia have thoughts. Support independent women’s media by becoming a Mamamia subscriber: Your discount does good — 20% off for you, 20% donated to RizeUp.
