- On Saturday, May 23, Melania Trump and her 20-year-old son Barron Trump skipped Donald Trump Jr.'s wedding in the Bahamas, intensifying scrutiny over family dynamics. President Donald Trump also remained at the White House.
- Tension between Melania and her stepchildren reportedly prompted her to skip the celebration, following months of speculation about her limited public presence and increasingly separate life from Trump's political world.
