Donald And Melania Trump’s Reportedly Separate Bedrooms Fuel Marriage Speculation

There are too many questions and too much speculation around Donald Trump and Melania Trump‘s marriage for anyone to believe they actually sleep in the same bed every night. But people were still a little scandalized to hear that particular rumor all but confirmed in journalist Michael Wolff’s book series allegedly exposing secrets of Trump and strange bedroom and bedtime habits the two-time president has.

Wolff wrote about Trump’s first 100 days in office from his first term. Part of his claims regarding Trump involve Melania and Trump no longer sharing a bed or bedroom. And if that’s how things were in Trump’s first term in the White House, it’s hard to imagine that much, if anything, has changed for the president and first lady.

Donald Trump reportedly sleeps alone and so does Melania Trump.

In Wolff’s book series about the White House, Trump, and Trump’s personal life, the journalist alleged that Trump and Melania had separate bedrooms during Trump’s first term. In fact, Wolff wrote, Trump saw the White House and the West Wing to be ”a little scary.” I mean, that’s almost relatable to be honest.

He retreated to his own bedroom,” Wolff wrote. “The first time since the Kennedy White House that a presidential couple had maintained separate rooms.”

Biographer Mary Jordan nearly echoed those claims in her own biography The Art of Her Deal: The Untold Story of Melania Trump. And, she claimed, Trump and Melania might love each other, but it’s shown in a strange way, given their physical distance from one another.

“I don’t know any couple that spends as much time apart,” she wrote. “They are often in the same building, but nowhere near each other. She rarely goes into the West Wing. She doesn’t like to golf. She has her own little spa. She likes to be isolated. She is a loner. He is a loner. They’re perfectly happy to be separated.”

Some critics believe that Melania Trump has been living separately from Donald Trump for years.

There are enough photos and clips of Melania rolling her eyes at Trump or refusing to hold his hand at public events that it’s not all that far off to believe there has been trouble or distance in the marriage for years. 

In a Reddit thread about the couple, a user wrote, “We’ve known since 1st presidency that they’re all but divorced. Melanie is only with him due to contractual obligations.”

Another added, “I am going to take a wild guess that these two have not shared a bed in a very long time.”

Others shared their lack of surprise at Melania and Trump reportedly no longer sharing a bed. After all, they have multiple homes across the United States and Melania has gone weeks without being seen at Trump’s side.

Donald Trump’s habits at bedtime are almost too ridiculous to be believed.

Wolff also wrote of alleged bedtime habits that Trump began during his first term in office. One of those was having McDonald’s cheeseburgers in bed at night. Maybe Melania just didn’t love the smell of dehydrated onions in the morning. Wolff also claimed that, when Trump moved into his presidential suite at the White House, he insisted on getting two more TVs and a lock on the door. 

If those claims about Trump’s bedroom and bedroom routine are to be believed, it’s not too surprising that Melania wanted her own space.
