Melania Visits Children in French Hospital During Trump's Bastille Day Trip
The Trumps are in France for a two-day visit to honor Bastille Day.
After first lady Melania Trump touched down in Paris with her husband Thursday, she headed to a local children’s hospital to meet the patients.
Melania visited Necker Hospital, which is the country’s largest and oldest pediatric infirmary. It was founded in 1778.
The first lady, who speaks French, chatted with children in the Enfants Malades wing. During the visit, she also met and shook hands with doctors, nurses and other staff.
She later shared an image of her meeting one of the children on Twitter.
Thank U @hospital_necker for allowing me to visit your wonderful patients & inspirational staff. Continued prayers for good health for all. pic.twitter.com/3keri8EUC4
The hospital also shared images.
Necker Hospital has previous ties to America. The late street artist Keith Haring donated a large sculpture to the facility in 1987.
