The Jeffrey Epstein file dump on Friday included an email exchange between Melania Trump and Ghislaine Maxwell, where the now-convict called the future first lady “sweet pea.”
The note about getting together in New York City was dated October 23, 2002 and was among the three million documents the Justice Department released on Friday as part of the Epstein investigation.

Melania would have still been a Knauss at the time – her maiden name. She and Donald Trump married in 2005.
In the email, where she calls Maxwell “G,” Melania mentions the now infamous New York magazine profileof Epstein, in which Donald Trump famously said the billionaire pedophile liked women “on the younger side.”
“Dear GI How are you? Nice story about JE in NY mag. You look great on the picture,” she wrote. “I know you are very busy flying all over the world. How was Palm Beach? I cannot wait to go down. Give me a call when you are back in NY. Have a great time! Love, Melania”
Maxwell responded, calling Melania “sweet pea.”
“Sweet pea – thanks for your message. Actually plans changed again and I am now on my way back to NY. I leave again on Fri so I still do not think I have time to see you sadly. I will try and call though,” she wrote.
Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein had a falling out in the early 2000s. But, at the time of the email, were believed to still be friends. In fact, in November 2002, Trump, Maxwell, Melania Knauss and model Naomi Campbell appeared in a photo together at an opening of a Dolce & Gabbana store in New York.
The first lady is also mentioned in emails between Epstein and author Michael Wolff that were exchanged in 2017, during the first Trump administration.
“Some journalists working a lead on a melania boyfriend,” Epstein wroteto Wolff.

“If so, I’ll be sorry to have missed that!,” Wolff responded.
A year later, in 2018, Epstein emailed Wolffabout President Trump: “could drive him over the edge if the melania story doesnt come out.”
It’s unclear what Epstein was referring to. He used a lot of coded language, bad grammar and spelling mistakes.
The East Wing did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
