While former President Donald Trump is more focused on his recent arrest by the NYC District Attorney, golf and re-election in 2024, his wife, 52-year-old Melania Trump, is more concerned with their 17-year-old son, Barron Trump, and her parents, who all live with her in Palm Beach.
According to those who have spoken with her, she is upset about Trump’s arrest and being charged with 34 felonies, but is “laying low,” keeping to herself and her family.
Melania quickly earned the reputation of a First Lady who preferred to spend time with her family rather than socializing with others or giving interviews while her husband was president.
A source said of Melania’s relationship with her son, “She has always been a doting mom to Barron and is quite protective of him.” Melania has said in the rare interviews that she has tried to teach her son the difference between right and wrong.
Melania maintains her routine in Florida, even as the family reacts to the arrest of the former president for paying porn star Stormy Daniels hush money in 2016 to keep her quiet about their alleged affair.
Melania’s top priority has always been Barron, according to the source. In interviews, she has admitted that she spends more time with him than with her husband.
Melania is reportedly living her own life, surrounded by people who love her and avoid bringing up unpleasant topics such as her husband’s mistakes or legal issues.
