The Trumps haven’t been in the White House for a month yet, and details are already emerging that the billionaire family is growing unhappy in its new role.
It was reported last week that President Trump is getting frustrated with the challenges of the presidency, and now US Weekly is reporting Melania Trump finds it “miserable” to be the first lady of the United States.
According to the magazine, with all the constant scrutiny and laundry list of duties that come with being the first lady, Mrs. Trump has grown “unhappy with how her life ended up.”
“She is miserable,” a Trump family source said in the report on Wednesday. “This life wasn’t her dream. It was Donald’s.”
While a source close to the first lady counters saying “she is very happy with her life and supporting her husband and family,” Melania has faced multiple controversial attacks during her first weeks as the first lady.
Following Inauguration Day, comedian Chelsea Handler mocked the Slovenian native for “barely speaking English.” Many were quick to point out that the first lady speaks at least five languages — including English, French, Italian, German and Slovene.
More recently, a New York Times reporter apologized after Model Emily Ratajkowski revealed he called the Mrs. Trump a “hooker” during a conversation the two had at a party.
“Applause to all women around the world who speak up, stand up and support other women!” the first lady tweeted to Ratajkowski following the incident.
Trump family friend and stylist Phillip Bloch told US Weekly that the new spotlight is taking its toll on the former model. “Truthfully, it’s a lot to cope with,” said Bloch.
Bloch also said the first lady has been spending a lot of time holed up in her New York apartment. “She is staying hidden more.”
“Don’t let her smile in those photos fool you,” claims the source. “She hates this.”
