Trump has chosen a different path than that of most of her predecessors-one that is mostly behind closed doors. “He has my support, and we look forward to restoring hope for the future and leading America with love and strength,” Trump said during a May interview with Fox News. Still, sources familiar with their relationship tell CNN she supports her husband’s decision to run for president. While Trump attended her husband’s presidential announcement last November, she has not joined him for any other public campaign events or his multiple court appearances. A source close to the former first lady told CNN most of her focus remains on their son, Barron, who is expected to graduate high school in Florida next year. Melania Trump has largely avoided the public eye since leaving Washington in January 2021, even as her husband pursues another campaign to return to the White House. Three former presidents did not attend: Donald Trump, Barack Obama and George W.
