Melania Trump just broke her silence about where she will spend her time after Jan. 20
This isn’t Melania Trump’s first rodeo.
The soon to be first lady (for the second time) sat down on Monday with Fox & Friends on Monday to reveal the game plan after her husband Donald Trump takes office.
Apparently, she won’t be a full time Washington, D.C. resident, preferring to split her time among three cities on an as-needed basis.
So expect to see Melania in NYC, where Trump Tower is located and their son Barron attends NYU, and also South Florida, tending to the home fires at Mar-a-Lago.
“I will be in the White House, and when I need to be in New York, I will be in New York. When I need to be in Palm Beach, I will be in Palm Beach,” she told reporter Ainsley Earhardt. “But my first priority is, you know, to be a mom, to be a first lady, to be a wife, and once we are in on January 20, you serve the country.”
As many may recall, the 54-year-old former model did not join Trump at the beginning of his initial term in 2016, preferring to stay on while their son Barron finished up his academic year at Columbia Grammar on Manhattan’s Upper West Side.
The young man then transferred to the St. Andrew’s Episcopal School in Potomac, Maryland, in 2017, eventually moving on and graduating from Oxbridge Academy in West Palm Beach. Now 18 (voting for the first time last November), the Stern School of Business freshman can basically come and go as he pleases.
“I feel that children, we have them ‘til they are like 18, 19 years old. We teach them, we guide them, and then we give them the wings to fly,” Melania said. “I always respect Barron’s yes and no and what he likes to do, where he would like to be.”
