The former first lady released a video statement on Thursday following reports that she will publicly clash with her husband’s stance over the issue in her new memoir.
Melania Trump has spoken out following reports that her upcoming memoir will include a defence of abortion rights.
Speaking in a video uploaded to social media on Thursday, the former first lady did not say the word abortion – but declared she believed that individual freedom was “a fundamental principle that I safeguard”.
“Without a doubt, there is no room for compromise when it comes to this essential right, that all women possess from birth – individual freedom,” Mrs Trump added.
“What does ‘my body, my choice’, really mean?”
The 28-second clip, which was shot in black and white, ends with an advert for her new book Melania.
