Melania Trump has long been a pillar of support for her husband, Donald Trump. Despite reports suggesting she may not live in the White House full-time, it appears Donald has found a new ally in tech billionaire Elon Musk. The two worked closely during Trump’s presidential campaign, and sources claim Musk has become a welcomed member of the Trump family fold.
Melania’s living arrangements have been a topic of discussion, with sources telling CNN she’ll primarily reside at Trump Tower in New York to be close to her son, Barron, who’s attending New York University. She’ll also spend time at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida. According to Kate Bennett, author of Free, Melania, the former model has the freedom to be as involved or uninvolved in the East Wing as she chooses.
While Melania’s involvement in the Trump Administration is still being discussed, it’s clear she’s not eager to dive into significant political causes. In October, she mentioned that a second term in the White House would be different. Meanwhile, Elon Musk has become a regular presence at Mar-a-Lago, even appearing in a Trump family photo. However, not everyone is thrilled about Musk’s close relationship with the Trumps.
Some sources claim Musk has begun to wear on those close to Trump’s inner circle, who believe he’s overstepping his role in the transition to the White House. Despite this, Trump-Vance spokesperson Anna Kelly praised Musk as a “genius” and “innovator” who’s dedicated to America’s future. As for Melania’s true feelings about Elon Musk, a source revealed to PageSix that she likes him and has “been around more.
