Melania Trump will join husband Donald in Milwaukee for Republican convention

MILWAUKEE - Former first lady Melania Trump plans to attend the Republican convention to watch her husband be nominated for the presidency a third time, officials said Saturday.

Melania Trump has been little-seen on the campaign trail this year as the former president marched to the nomination.

Donald and Melania Trump stand in front of members of the media after casting their votes at the Morton and Barbara Mandel Recreation Center on election day March 19, 2024 Palm Beach.

She has appeared at private events, including closed fundraisers; the Trumps were also spotted at a polling place on the day of Florida primary in March.

"Stay tuned," Melania. Trump said when asked about a return to the campaign trail.

Two people familiar with GOP convention planning, speaking on condition of anonymity because the schedule has not been made public, confirmed that Melania Trump will be in Milwaukee. They did not provide details, or say when she would be arriving and whether she would be speaking to the delegates.

Melania Trump has been absent from primary victory celebrations as well as her husband's hush money trial in New York.
