She's happy someone is in her corner!
Melania Trump took to Twitter on Monday to thank model Emily Ratajkowski for sticking up for her after an unidentified New York Times reporter called her a "hooker" at a recent fashion event.
"Applause to all women around the world who speak up, stand up and support other women! @emrata #PowerOfEveryWoman #PowerOfTheFirstLady," the FLOTUS tweeted.
The video vixen recounted the nasty moment on social media, while calling for people to quit attacking other women's sexuality. "Sat next to a journalist from the NYT last night who told me 'Melania is a hooker.' Whatever your politics it’s crucial to call this out for what it is: slut shaming. I don’t care about her nudes or sexual history, and no one should," she wrote.
The Slovenian native has been forced to defend herself against the "hooker" claims ever since the Daily Mail insinuated she was a high paid escort during her modeling days.
The Times released the following statement in response to Ratajkowski's tweet.
"At a party last night, a Times reporter who does not cover Washington or politics referred to an unfounded rumor regarding Melania Trump. The comment was not intended to be public, but it was nonetheless completely inappropriate and should not have occurred. Editors have talked to the reporter in question about the lapse," the statement read.
We love women supporting other women! Bravo!
