Former President Donald Trump revealed Tuesday that his wife, Melania, will be more active in his presidential campaign this year than she has been in the past because she “wants to make America great again, too.”
Melania will be 'very active' in Trump campaign
The Daily Mail reported that Trump said Melania would be “very active” in his campaign throughout this year.
“She wants to make America great again, too,” he said of Melania. “I rely on her for advice and all the others. I think she will be very active in the sense that she is active.
Trump went on to say that he is concerned for his family, as he believes they have faced “unfair” attacks.
“They've done a tremendous job on economic development and jobs, every single one of them,” Trump said.
Trump also spoke about his 17-year-old son Barron, revealing that his height is now 6 feet 8 inches.
Trump concluded by saying: “He is a good boy, smart, a good athlete, and a very good boy.”
Melania's journey of loss and grief
This comes at a difficult time for Melania, who is still grieving the death of her beloved mother, Amalia Knavs, after she passed away earlier this month at the age of 78. On Sunday, Melania took to Instagram to say she is currently on a “journey of loss and grief.”
“On behalf of my family, I would like to express our deepest gratitude for the love and support you have shown us throughout this journey of loss and grief,” she wrote alongside a photo of Knavs.
She added: “We will treasure the beautiful memories of my beloved mother, and her light will remain in our hearts forever.”

Melania's eulogy for her mother
Last week, Melania delivered a powerful eulogy at her mother's funeral.
“Her nurturing spirit knew no bounds, creating a legacy that will last for generations,” Melania said of Amalia. “With her beauty and impeccable sense of style, she turned heads. But it was her unwavering dedication and hard work that made her exceptional.
Melania went on to talk about how much Amalia loved her 17-year-old grandson, Barron, whom she “overwhelmed with affection, and lit up his world with love, tender care, and unwavering devotion.”
“In her presence, the world seemed to sparkle with radiant joy,” Melania added. “She was not just a friend, she was a confidant. A ray of light in the darkest of days. In her company, I found peace in knowing that she would always be there to listen. She celebrated our successes and provided unwavering support during times of chaos.”
“Our bond was unbreakable,” she added. “A testament to the power of true love for each other. She was my dearest friend. An irreplaceable treasure. A gift given to me by the universe. And for that I am completely grateful.”
“Rest in peace, my beloved mother,” Melania concluded, her voice cracking with emotion.
