The former First Lady Melania Trump was noticeably absent from her husband’s New Year’s Eve celebration at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida on Sunday night. During the event, the ex-President Donald Trump revealed the sad reason why his wife could not be in attendance.
“Melania’s Mother Is ‘Very Ill’”
Page Six reported that while speaking at his New Year’s Eve event, Trump revealed that Melania could not attend because her beloved mother Amalija Knavs is “very ill.”
“Hopefully, that’ll be OK, but it’s a tough one, a very tough one,” Trump said, adding that Melania “sends her love” from her mother’s bedside.
“Melania has always been very devoted to her entire family. It should be no surprise that she spent this Christmas with her ailing mother,” a source close to Melania told Fox News.
“Melania To Campaign For Trump”
This comes after it was reported that Melania plans to step up her game when it comes to campaigning for her husband this year as he seeks re-election.
“We’re going to have a fantastic year,” Trump himself said at his New Year’s Eve party. “Our country has gone to hell but we’re going to turn it around, we’re going to turn it around quickly.”
“Melania Speaks To Immigrants”
Melania was born in Slovenia in 1970 to Amalija and Viktor Knavs, and she went on to become an American citizen in 2006. While speaking to 25 newly naturalized citizens at the National Archives Naturalization Ceremony in Washington D.C. last month, Melania recalled the “tremendous sense of pride and belonging” she felt when she became a U.S. citizen.
“My personal experience of traversing the challenges of the immigration process opened my eyes to the harsh realities these people face, including you, who try to become U.S. citizens,” she continued.
This is clearly a very difficult time for Melania and her entire family. Please join us in saying a prayer for her mother as she continues her recovery.
