Melania Trump is 'Miserable' as first lady Follow @Hitbizafrika

While her husband, Donald Trump, wields his power as president, first lady Melania Trump is said to be miserable as she struggles with the realities of her new role and the scrutiny that comes with it.

. “This life wasn’t her dream. It was Donald’s,” Trump family friend and stylist Phillip Bloch tells Us Weekly. “Truthfully, it’s a lot to cope with.”

 “Melania is unhappy with how her life ended up,” alleges another family source. “She is miserable.”

According to a family source, not even Barron can get her out the gold-plated front door. Pre-inauguration, Melania would shuttle her son in a chauffeured SUV to and from his private school. But that was before picketers took up residence outside her building. Now, claims the source,

“Melania has the Secret Service take Barron to school and retrieve him.”

Melania has left her $100 million apartment a handful of times. But aside from one outing to run errands January 30, she has usually headed to her other (luxurious) home at Mar-a-Lago, their $300 million estate in Palm Beach, Florida.

“Melania says she’s most happy at Mar-a-Lago,” says a source close to the first lady. “She loves Palm Beach!”“Don’t let her smile in those photos fool you,She hates this.”

A Melania source counters that

“she is very happy with her life and supporting her husband and family.”
