Melania confirms White House tours will resume

According to Fox News, a newly released press statement signed by Melania reads:

“The President and I are excited to reopen the White House to those interested in the extraordinary story of this iconic and beautiful landmark.

“There is much to learn about the American Presidency, the First Families who have lived here, and our Nation’s rich history from a firsthand experience at the White House.”

She continued: “This opportunity is unique among nations around the globe—a tradition we are honored to continue for the hundreds of thousands of visitors who come each year.”

Melania and Barron to divide their time across three locations

Prior to this latest update, many speculated that Melania had been spending much of her time in New York, where Barron is currently enrolled at NYU’s Stern School of Business.

This theory seemed to stem in part from a past statement she made regarding her living arrangements going forward.

Speaking to Fox News last month on January 13, Melania opened up about how she and her son would divide their time among three locations—Washington D.C., New York City, and Palm Beach, Florida—over the next four years, while prioritizing one in particular.

Asked where she would be spending the most time, Melania stated:

“I will be in the White House. And when I need to be in New York, I will be in New York. When I need to be in Palm Beach, I will be in Palm Beach.

“My first priority is to be a mum, to be a First Lady, to be a wife.”
