It was likely Susan Dell , the wife of Michael Dell, at the White House event where the Dells were tied to a major child-investment announcement. A report on the viral moment identified her as the woman standing in the background behind Trump.

Why people noticed

The image spread because her expression and position behind Trump looked unusual in the photos and clips, so viewers fixated on her instead of the event itself.

Context

The event was connected to the Dells’ pledged donation for a child grant initiative called “Trump Accounts,” which helped explain why Susan Dell was there.

Note

If you mean a different White House event on Monday, the identity could change depending on which clip or photo you saw.
