Few women have lived quite so elegantly under a microscope as Melania Trump. Now she is trading the glare of headlines for the softer lighting of a documentary, one that promises to let her narrate the story herself. Following a turbulent exclusive release for MELANIA, that had a majority of the press up in arms, the documentary is now making its way to Amazon Prime Video as promised, and Melania Trump is leaving no stones unturned this time around.

Melania Trump is all set to unveil her version of the story, as she hyped up MELANIA's release on Amazon Prime Video.

The documentary Melania officially began streaming on Amazon Prime Video on March 9, 2026, following its theatrical release earlier this year. The film, which centers on the first lady, Melania Trump's life and experiences around a historic political moment, is now available globally for subscribers of the platform.

Ahead of its release, she took to X to express her excitement around the release of the documentary for a wider audience. 

"As planned, my new film MELANIA is launching on Prime following its record-breaking theatrical run," Melania Trump wrote on X.

Directed by Brett Ratner and produced in association with Melania Trump, the project documents the 20 days leading up to the second inauguration of Donald Trump in January 2025. The streaming debut marks a new phase for the documentary, allowing viewers who missed its theatrical run to explore the film from home.

‘MELANIA’ Box Office and Ratings: First Lady’s Documentary Struggles to Breathe in Hollywood

With the film now reaching a broader audience online, many viewers are curious about what exactly the documentary reveals about Melania Trump’s life during this pivotal period.

Melania provides an inside view of the preparations surrounding the inauguration, capturing meetings with stylists, designers, and close advisers as plans for the ceremony took shape. Through narration and personal reflections, Melania discusses topics ranging from her fashion choices to her feelings about her husband’s political journey.

The documentary also highlights the atmosphere leading up to the swearing-in ceremony, portraying the pressures and expectations that come with returning to the White House. The film drew mixed reactions from critics, some describing it as a highly personal project. Moreover, its performance at the box office also marked quite the struggle, grossing approximately $16.6 million worldwide against a high $40 million production budget.

With its streaming release, Melania now has the opportunity to reach a much wider audience beyond theaters. While this could help the documentary touch a new milestone if the reason behind its sub par performance at the box office was audiances preferring the comfort of their home for viewing, the chances are unlikely. Regardless of what viewership rating it garners, another installation may already be on the table for a Melania Trump centred project.
