During the inauguration of President Donald Trump, his wife, Melania Trump was by his side, but ever since, it isn’t clear if she’s spending any time in the White House.
The truth is that the First Lady has opened up about her stay in Washington D.C. following her husband’s win and told Fox News, “I will be in the White House. And you know when I need to be in New York, I will be in New York. When I need to be in Palm Beach, I will be in Palm Beach. But my first priority is, you know, to be a mom, to be a first lady, to be a wife. And once we are in on January 20, you serve the country.”
That her son Barron is her top priority isn’t something the public isn’t familiar with.
While Trump attended the Super Bowl and was the first ever sitting president to attend the game, Melania wasn’t by his side.
She, however, was seen accompanying her husband to Los Angeles last month, where she was seen comforting victims of the wildfires. A video clip of her posted on social media, in which she was heard speaking Slovenian to a woman, received widespread praise.
“Seeing Melania so much more involved this time around is amazing,” one user wrote, per the Irish Star. Another added: “When we speak to people in their native tongue they feel heard, they feel listened to, they feel the love! What an incredible First Lady.”
A third stated: “First Lady Melania Trump speaks her native language to comfort those devastated by the wildfires. Even in a ballcap Melania shows her beauty and grace.”
Melania Trump has been absent from the White House during Trump’s meetings with prime ministers and other influential political figures, and now a source claims that she’s busy filming her Amazon documentary, as per People Magazine.
The source said her absence from the spotlight shouldn’t come as a surprise, because “this is how she lives,” adding that she “will never be a traditional first lady” and has “her own ideas on what she wants to do.”
Melania has only been to the White House recently because the shooting she’s busy with required so.
“Melania has been busy shooting her documentary and that has taken place in several locations, including the White House,” a Miami political source told People.
The idea behind a documentary on her life came after her memoir titled Melania proved to be a huge success.
Speaking to Fox, the first lady said, “So I had an idea to make a movie, to make a film about my life. My life is incredible. It’s incredibly busy and I told my agent I have this idea so please go out and make a deal for me. We started the production in November and we are shooting right now. So it’s a day-to-day life. What I’m doing, what kind of responsibilities I have, people they don’t really know and they will see it.”
As per the CNN, Melania attended the Governors Ball. However, she hasn’t undertaken any official First Lady duties.
“[Donald and Melania Trump] both live at Mar-a-Lago and have quarters in the White House,” the source said. “But she leads her own life and joins him when appropriate in either place,” adding that when she is in Palm Beach, she “keeps to herself” but does accompany Donald to dinner “on occasion.”
According to author Michael Wolff, who’s been critical of the president, Trump’s campaign staff “didn’t even know where Melania lived.”
“She doesn’t live with him. They spend very little time together. Whenever she’s at the White House or at Mar-a-Lago, it’s like she’s a guest. She basically lives in Trump Tower now,” he said on the Daily Beast’s podcast.
He concluded that at the Republican National Convention, Melania “would not sit next to him … Her one appearance on the last day was contingent on him not being in the VIP box.”
The president isn’t happy with authors and magazines writing of his relationship with his wife, threatening to sue those citing anonymous sources.
While Donald and Melania didn’t comment on Wolff’s accusations, Steven Cheung, the White House communications director, was clear about his opinion of the author.
“Michael Wolff is a lying sack of s*** and has been proven to be a fraud. He routinely fabricates stories originating from his sick and warped imagination, only possible because he has a severe and debilitating case of Trump Derangement Syndrome that has rotted his peanut-sized brain,” Cheung told Newsweek.
While many wonder where she is, Melania did make a public appearance on April 1 at the Women of Courage Award Ceremony.
She was welcomed with a loud applause, wearing a leopard-print dress.
Melania delivered a remark at the ceremony, saying: “Love has inspired me to embrace forgiveness, nurture empathy, and exhibit bravery in the face of unforeseen obstacles.
“Today, we celebrate courage — a strength that is based in love,”
The First Lady added: “We are honored to join an exceptional assembly of brave women who have shown their love and refuse to let fear or hardship define them. Their collective achievements and dedication move us all.”
