Meanwhile, former first lady Melania Trump celebrated Christmas with her ailing mother, Fox News Digital has reported.
A source close to the former first lady told Fox News Digital that she did not attend the Trump family Christmas celebration at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, earlier this week so that she could spend time with her ailing mother.
“Melania has always been very devoted to her entire family,” a source close to Melania Trump told Fox News Digital. “It should be no surprise that she spent this Christmas with her ailing mother.”
Former President Donald Trump and Melania’s son, Barron, attended the Christmas dinner with his father and other family members at Mar-a-Lago.
The former first lady, in an interview with Fox News Digital earlier this year, said she fully supports her husband’s presidential campaign and looks forward to “restoring hope for the future and leading America with love and strength” during a possible second term in the White House. She told Fox News Digital it would be a “privilege” to serve as first lady again.
Trump said that if she has “the privilege” to serve as first lady again in 2024, she would continue to prioritize initiatives focused on the well-being and development of children, to ensure they have the “support and resources they need to reach their full potential.”
Former President Trump currently holds a commanding lead over the GOP primary field.
During her tenure as the First Lady of the United States, Melania Trump organized virtual roundtables to discuss foster care as part of her “Be Best” initiative. Her focus was on strengthening the child welfare system and collaborating with members of Congress on legislation that secured funding for grants awarded to young adults and youths who are either currently or formerly in foster care. The funding would help them pay for college, career school or training. In December 2020, the bill was signed by then-President Trump.
