Former president of the US, Donald Trump, appears to have shed a few pounds recently and some suggest that it's all down to his wife.

Last November, the 77-year-old released a health report from his physician that claimed he was in top condition and had lost weight. However a few, including Oprah Winfrey among others, have wondered what exactly was behind Trump's apparent health boost and one reports believes that Melania Trump is the catalyst.

A mixture of help from his wife and staying away from Mar-a-Lago buffets at his Florida club is the cause of him trimming back the fat. It is alleged that Trump has “dropped at least 30 pounds". One top of this, people at his club suggest that he has been eating healthier and staying away from the calorific buffet.

A source told Page Six that Melania has been helping to improve his eating habits and that "Trump has not been seen scarfing down ice cream sundaes or chocolate cake with two scoops of vanilla ice cream on it”.

Back in November, Trump's physician, New Jersey’s Dr. Bruce Aronwald, wrote: “I am pleased to report that President Trump’s overall health is excellent. Trump has reduced his weight through an improved diet and continued daily physical activity while maintaining a rigorous schedule.”

A few months previous in August, Trump’s weight was reportedly listed as 215 pounds after he surrendered to Georgia authorities over charges relating to his alleged attempt to overturn 2020 election results in the state. This made him 25 pounds lighter than in April, when he booked in for his Manhattan case.

Skeptics have suggested that his weight loss is a blatant lie. Anti-Trumper Rick Wilson of the Lincoln Project tweeted at the time: “215? That’s an insane lie.” One source even went on to allege that he had been taking weight loss pills such as Ozempic or Wegovy that "are very popular in Palm Beach, where everyone is suddenly looking thinner!”

However, another source praised Trump's appearance and said: “He does lots of sport. He looks good.” Last month ABC News reported that Trump told a sketch artist last month in one of his cases that he needed to “lose some weight” after viewing her courtroom drawing of himself.
