In the past, Melania’s vanishing acts have led to rumours about their marriage. Now Donald is facing a trial though, she appears to be sticking around
Welcome to the Trump family circus: Donald is head clown and Melania is a modern-day Houdini. The former first lady is well known for her disappearing acts: she routinely vanishes from the public eye for extended periods, sparking speculation about whether she has finally left her husband and stoking conspiracy theories about her whereabouts. Now, however, Melania is making headlines because she hasn’t vanished. After being accused of illegally hoarding top secret documents in (among other places) a Mar-a-Lago loo, which he denies, Trump is in the most trouble he has ever been in, and Melania is reportedly “supporting him 100%”.
According to a recent New York Post report, an anonymous source close to the Trumps is keen to reassure everyone that Melania will “stand by her man” in his hour of need. Another unnamed source insinuated that, while getting hit with a 37-count federal indictment for mishandling top-secret classified documents – which Trump also denies – might constitute a crisis in some households, it was just another day in Trump world. “They are used to dealing with this stuff,” the insider said. Yet another unnamed source said: “Melania knows what she signed up for. She is in a wait-and-see position. [Donald will] either be in prison or be president. Or both.”
