...After Report She & Trump Live Separate Lives Shes Done
What a shock...
https://www.sheknows.com/entertainment/articles/1234969205/trump-melania-live-together/
...D.C. was always temporary in her mind, the insider said. Melania is a New York woman. The source explained, while Melania will continue to travel regularly to Florida (where Trumps Mar-a-Lago resort is based in Palm Beach), shes planning to make New York City her home base.
Another reason Melania is considering moving back to New York City is her reported plan to launch a lifestyle and luxury brand called Melania, which will include premium fragrances, skincare, luxury home goods, fashion items, and more collectibles, according to Shuters source. This is about turning Melania into a global luxury brand, the insider said. New York is where that happensnot Washington.
The source continued, Shes done being decorative. This is about control, creativity, and cash.
Shuters post also comes after Michael Wolff told The Daily Beast Podcast in May 2025 that Melania and Trump live separate lives. A source also told People in January 2026 that the couple have very little interaction outside of their public appearances together. There is little interaction between them, just what is expected, the insider said. Then they go back to doing their own thing.
The source also claimed that Melania and Trump have their own quarters in the White House, and that Melania leads her own life and joins him when appropriate. The insider also reported that Melania typically keeps to herself when the couple are in Palm Beach for work, though she does accompany her husband to dinner on occasion.

But this is not enough for madam Melania.

(80,517 posts)So she is perhaps just going to sell her name to someone else to create and run the company.
She hopes a rich investor buys it right away.
Or it is a way for Putin and US enemies to launder the cash they send her.

I can hardly wait for her trials to begin. I hope I live to see that.
get the red out
(14,007 posts)I remember seeing her and Trump officially greeting/being greeted by Pootin (I can't recall if it was here or in Moscow) and my first thought was "that woman is scared to death". I figured she was worried that she would get a bad "performance evaluation", which would be far more serious than with most supervisors.

(101 posts)Thought NY is where she reportedly was all the time...to be near her son while in school. She never made a point to pretend she was in DC. Not sure why this is new info for "the source" to be reporting on unless they're implying a legal separation or divorce - which would be old speculation.

(2,557 posts)Is going to school in NY to be near her (or the MONEY), I'm sure. If he chose to go to school in Idaho, I doubt she'd be so doting as to move there to be with him.
Unless she's still rubbing his body down with fish oil crap after his baths---like she did when he was 7+ years old. They're a strange family.....

Luxury brand my ass. Based on her taste, whatever she hawks will be expensive but ugly and tacky. Luxury price tags only.

The sickness of celebrity worship in this country is amazing.

(597 posts)People in that space travel the planet at will, and can buy/rent one of thousands of vacant luxury properties anywhere, anytime. Moving is a highly subjective term in this instance. Perhaps distancing would be more appropriate?

(3,379 posts)My GOD how we heard about the daily inner workings of the Clintons, Obamas and Bidens.
Here with the Trumps? Zero. Zilch. Nada. "Nothing to see here! All-American couple!"
And while we're on Melania...who long has she been in the U.S? 30 years? Right Wing bitches and moans about immigrants and foreigners and Melania sounds like she can barely form basic English sentences.
