Where’s Melania? Former first lady was MIA in Palm Beach after Donald Trump’s arrest

Where’s Melania?

The former first lady appears to be have gone dark.

The 52-year-old mother of one wasn’t standing by her man when the former president made his fiery speech at Mar-a-Lago Tuesday night after being arraigned on 34 felony charges in New York.

Sitting in the front row were Trump’s two sons with the late Ivana Trump, Donald Jr. and Eric, with their respective mates Kimberly Guilfoyle and Lara Trump, as well as Tiffany Trump (mom is Marla Maples) with new husband Michael Boulos. Missing also from the crowd were the ex-POTUS’ daughter Ivanka, who was apparently in Wyoming celebrating Passover with husband Jared Kushner.

“I built a great business with my family. Built a fantastic business. I have a son here who’s done a great job,” said Trump to his supporters. “And I have another son here who’s done a great job. And Tiffany, and Ivanka. And Barron will be great some day. He is tall and he’s smart. I have a great family and they’ve done a fantastic job and we appreciated it very much.”

The speech was held after 8 p.m. so maybe Melania (whose father, Viktor Knaus, showed up ostensibly in her stead) was helping Barron, 17, with his homework. Or maybe the former model had a headache from watching the constant stream of news surrounding the arraignment all day.

The nonstop action began at Trump Tower at around 10:30 a.m. and continued all the way down to the courthouse on 100 Center Street at the tip of Manhattan. Trump jetted back to South Florida soon after in his private plane and took to the ballroom to address his loyal peeps at his resort.

Donald Trump is in scalding hot legal water over alleged hush money payments made to porn star Stormy Daniels during the 2016 presidential campaign.

What’s next? Trump and his lawyers are now facing an Aug. 8 deadline to provide evidence relevant to the case, either a motion to dismiss or a request for a different judge.

So, nope it’s far from over, and we are sure Melania will have plenty of more opportunities to express her love and support down the road.
