Melania was by her husband's side when he announced his run for 2024. It's obvious that she supports him. She's even said as much. Melania is not an attention whore. I can understand her protecting her privacy after the horseshit her family has been exposed to these past 7+ years. Why should she put herself front and center for the media, when it's obvious they hate her husband, and spread rumors and gossip about her and her family, so why should she give the media what they want, and perform for the cameras?
The one time she trusted someone she felt she could open up to about the attacks on her husband, turned around and recorded their phone conversations, then sold the recordings, and wrote a book. That was when they were in The White House. Why the hell would she trust anyone ever again?
Also, a female teacher from Chicago was stalking Barron at his high school. The school called the police on her on March 7th this year. She was eventually arrested in August for threatening that she was going to shoot Trump and Barron in the face, the first chance she got. I can believe that Melania is worried about the safety of her family because of all the nutcases out there, and perhaps the Secret Service has also advised her to keep her public appearances to a minimum.
Stop making things up. Something is not going on. She is a very private person...and always has been.
