Melania Trump, happiness is a move (the one from the White House)
The former model who has never wanted to be First Lady in weeks is concerned with only one thing: the packaging of her personal effects. And who has crossed paths with her swears that she has never been so calm and smiling
Melania Trump is about to leave the White House. "Without any regrets," as sources close to her reveal. On the other hand, the outgoing first lady has never loved the White House. And for weeks now, as CNN reveals, all her energies have been concentrated in one thing: the move. Besides, she doesn't seem to care. Her husband Donald's decision not to participate in Joe Biden's settlement was learned through a Tweet. The assault on the Capitol surprised her during a photo shoot.
She has never spoken to Jill Biden and is not making plans for her life away from Washington. Since the time of Rosalyn Carter, all former first ladies have dedicated their efforts to advancing the causes they have worked on during their time in the White House. Melania, it seems, could be the only one (besides Pat Nixon) who will not pretend to carve out a public role in retrospect under the wing of her husband. On the other hand, the former model never wanted to be First Lady. The defeat of Donald, the father of her only son Barron, 14, would have been "liberating" for her. And now marriage too would be in the balance. Melania intends to "separate from Donald Trump and move to New York". "You are counting the minutes ...", as former White House adviser Omarosa Manigault Newman said.
The couple in the White House slept in divided wings. He on the second floor in the West Wing, she on the third floor in the East Wing. In her private room, Melania has been personally managing the packing work for her personal belongings for weeks. Thousands of boxes moved to the Mar-a-Lago residence in Palm Beach, Florida, and to some rented warehouses. Those who have crossed paths with her say that the former model is smiling and relaxed as she has never been. So much so that in the United States there is a joke that she might have voted for Biden too. According to White House staff interviewed by CNN, Melania was the first to admit Donald's defeat. And now she is the one who is in the hurry to leave Washington.
