Melania Trump has largely stayed out of the public eye in recent months. She did appear with her family for the New Year’s celebration at Mar-a-Lago, where cameras even captured a kiss between her and her husband. Still, questions remain about the true state of their marriage. According to a source, the couple rarely spends time together—though they do share one surprising interest.

While Donald Trump is fully occupied with responsibilities at the White House, Melania has made only a handful of public appearances. In late October, she visited a South Carolina military base alongside Usha Vance, and in December, she accompanied Donald to the annual Congressional Ball in Washington, D.C.

She has also recently promoted the trailer for her upcoming documentary, Melania. During the New Year’s festivities, cameras spotted Donald, Melania, and their son Barron Trump together at Mar-a-Lago. As Melania previously explained before returning to the White House a year ago, she planned to divide her time between Palm Beach, Florida, and Washington, D.C.

Over the past month, she has indeed split her time between Mar-a-Lago and the White House. However, a source speaking to People Magazine noted that Melania has not been present in the Capitol performing official First Lady duties.

Back in February of last year, a People Magazine source explained their arrangement: “[Donald and Melania] both live at Mar-a-Lago and have quarters in the White House. But she leads her own life and joins him when appropriate in either place.”

An unexpected bond

That same source added that while in Palm Beach, Melania largely keeps to herself, though she does occasionally join Donald for dinner.

Because the President and First Lady maintain very different schedules, another insider told People Magazine that this separation has affected their relationship. Despite this, the couple reportedly connects over a shared passion for interior design.

The source also claimed that Donald Trump sees himself as a skilled designer, believing he can shape spaces better than many professionals.

“Donald has his own vision for his homes and clubs, and over the years has designed and selected a lot of the furnishings and finishings himself at Mar-a-Lago and the golf clubs,” the source said. “He and Melania have that in common. They both love interior design.”

Still, the insider emphasized that outside of public events, the couple spends very little time together.

“There is little interaction between them, just what is expected,” the source continued. ”Then they go back to doing their own thing.”

“I don’t know what it is she’s doing”

Responding to these claims, White House spokesperson Davis Ingle told People Magazine: “President Trump and the entire administration work 24/7 for the American people to deliver on the promise to Make America Great Again. The Trump Family is the most successful family of all time.”

The limited time Donald and Melania spend together was noticeable in December during the Congressional Ball. As they arrived, Donald commented on Melania’s work at the White House, appearing unaware of her recent efforts.

After Melania briefly mentioned her “new legislative initiative,” Donald responded, “Well, I just heard about that for the first time. I don’t know what it is she’s doing, but I know it’s going to be great for children.”
