Melania Trump’s absence from the family’s Christmas card photo has been explained. According to sources close to the Trump family, the former first lady has been devoting her time to caring for her ailing mother, Amalija Knavs, who has been hospitalized.
“Melania has always been very devoted to her entire family,” a source close to Melania Trump shared with Fox News Digital. “It should be no surprise that she spent this Christmas with her ailing mother.”
The news of Melania’s absence from the Christmas card photo, which was shared by Donald Trump Jr.’s fiancée, Kimberly Guilfoyle, on her Instagram Story, raised questions. However, it has now been clarified that Melania was with her mother at the hospital instead of attending the family gathering at former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Florida.
The family photo, which includes Donald Trump Jr., Donald Trump, Kimberly Guilfoyle, Barron Trump, Ivanka Trump, Jared Kushner, Tiffany Trump, and Michael Boulos, captured a moment of festivity amid the holiday season. Barron Trump, at 17 years old, stood prominently in front of the Christmas tree, showcasing his growth.
This revelation comes amidst reports that Melania Trump is poised to increase her public appearances in support of her husband’s potential bid for re-election in 2024. Sources suggest that Melania is gearing up to take on a more prominent role in top-tier diplomatic appearances, indicating a solid backing of Donald Trump’s aspirations for the presidency once again.
“Melania realizes it’s her time to join the ranks of historic first ladies and leave her mark on history … She feels better prepared for her potential role the second time around,” a source disclosed, emphasizing the family’s unwavering support for Donald Trump’s political ambitions.
Melania Trump has recently been seen at Rosalynn Carter’s funeral and a citizens’ naturalization ceremony at the National Archives, hinting at her increasing public presence in alignment with her husband’s political aspirations.
