Melania Trump and all her secrets. "She lives separately in the house"
New York, December 4, 2019 - It is Melania Trump, not the president husband, who knows best the secrets of the White House. And it is no coincidence that only now, after almost three years, an unauthorized biography comes out which reveals, for the first time, that the American first lady has always lived in a separate apartment from her husband's. She in the third of the building with her son Barron and he in the second. It is not just the bedroom that divides them but an entire living space, the same one that occupied Michelle Obama's mother for all eight years on Pennsylvania Avenue.
If the critics of the costume analyzed her clothes to determine the progress of relations with her husband, the author of the biography Kate Bennet adds that the silences and phrases printed on the shirts have become her way of communicating all the disappointment for her husband and for some other family member like, Ivanka Trump.
Choosing Free as the title, Melania: the Unauthorized Biography translated into liberate Melania: An Unauthorized Biography, Bennet implies that there is a subtle play on words in an attempt to remove from the golden cage the charming first lady who often detests Trump the tough, who never liked his campaign against bullying that instead he cultivates every day on the internet with his angry and stinging tweets even against global opponents.
The slap on the hand coming down from the airplane ladder during a trip to the Middle East and the technique of putting the jacket on her shoulders to prevent her husband from taking her arm, have become a veritable grammar of her silent public behavior that squeezes into a subtle smile in the official photos.
The revelation book is following Melania in London together with Trump for the NATO summit and becomes a reason for conversation also for tea with Carlo and Camilla while Donald is chased by the long report on impeachment close to a vote in the Democratic majority House that he has now decided to put him on trial in the Senate with hundreds of hours of testimony and thousands of documentary pages.
But in all these months apart from the trip talked about in Africa, Melania triumphs in her silence and often in solitary trips to Mar a Lago in Florida with a state plane carrying only her and her son Barron. Free, Melania is already breaking all sales records but the author has made a promise to the first lady in exchange for her 'officially unauthorized confidences' to keep Barron out of history. And Bennet has kept her promise by securing huge copyrights because digging into the privacy of the silent and smiling first lady has now become an American obsession.
