Melania Trump is considering fleeing the United States as her husband faces multiple legal issues and is taking their son Barron to Europe this summer.
The former first lady celebrated her 53rd birthday with a “low-key party” on Wednesday night. People magazine reported.
Donald Trump would be there if his schedule allowed. But the former president has been silent about his wife’s big day on his social media platforms.
Instead, in his multiple posts on his Truth Social platform, he spoke about the upcoming 2024 election, pointing to polls that showed him beating Joe Biden and describing the current president as “GROSSIOUSLY INCOMPETENT AND BASICALLY HAS NO CLUE! ”
He was also absent this week from a New York courtroom where writer Jean Carroll accused him of raping her in a Bergdorf Goodman dressing room in the mid-1990s. Trump has denied the accusation.

Melania Trump has been silent as her husband fights in court and on the campaign trail. She was at the announcement of his 2024 presidential campaign, but has not appeared at any of his rallies.
In particular, she skipped a speech Donald Trump gave after he was indicted in New York on charges of paying porn star Stormy Daniels hush money. Donald Trump pleaded not guilty to a 34 felony charge.
She was in Mar-a-Lago on Tuesday, where her parents are also staying, to celebrate her birthday.
“Melania likes a quiet party with family and I think that’s her plan for this year’s birthday,” a source told me. People. “When Donald is here, he will join the family to celebrate his wife’s birthday. Despite what you hear, the Trumps are a close-knit family.”

In addition, the former first lady wants to “bring Barron to Europe this summer.”
“Melania is responsible for Barron and his well-being and whatever else happens in her life, he’s the lead,” the source told People.
A spokesperson for the former first lady did not respond to DailyMail.com’s question about how Melania Trump spent her birthday.
It is unclear where Melania is going on vacation. She was born in Slovenia before moving to the United States to become a model. Barron, 17, speaks Slovenian.
Earlier this month, she challenged “assumptions” about her stance on “personal and political matters” in a statement that did not mention husband Donald Trump and whether she plans to support him during his impeachment and other legal inquiries.
Her office released a statement on April 11 criticizing articles that used “unnamed sources” in response to widespread speculation caused by her absence from his hearing in New York last Tuesday and from his speech at Mar-a-Lago in the aftermath of the hearing.
She was not seen for 10 days when the former president was charged with hush money payments to Stormy Daniels, the porn star he has denied having an affair with.
But she eventually showed up to attend an Easter Sunday brunch and was seen at his personal club next to the former president.
