Donald Trump appeared to confirm that he and wife Melania Trump maintain separate living quarters at Mar-a-Lago when, during an Oval Office exchange with reporters on Monday, 1 June, he described FBI agents searching 'my wife's area' and 'my son's area' in the Florida estate during the 2022 raid.
The remark resurfaced long-running speculation about how Donald and Melania actually live behind the gates of Mar-a-Lago. The news came after months of off-the-record claims that the couple occupy different parts of the sprawling Palm Beach property, and years after Melania formally declared the private club her primary residence rather than the White House. Publicly, both have avoided addressing the state of their marriage or any talk of divorce, leaving reporters and former aides to stitch together a picture from court filings, raids and the odd filmed walk-through.
