Melania Trump missing from family Christmas photo at Mar-a-Lago

Former President Donald Trump posed for a Christmas snapshot with his kids and grandchildren over the holiday — but his wife, Melania, was nowhere to be seen.

The festive photo, which was shared on Instagram Tuesday by Donald Trump Jr.’s fiancée, Kimberly Guilfoyle, shows the ex-commander-in-chief surrounded by a number of his relatives at his sprawling Mar-a-Lago estate in West Palm Beach, Fla.

A smiling Trump, 77, was flanked by most of his children for the Christmas tree photoshoot — including his towering 17-year-old son, Barron, whom he shares with the former first lady.

Melania’s father, Viktor Knavs, was also included in the family portrait.

It wasn’t immediately clear why Melania, 53, wasn’t featured in the photo. The Trump camp did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The other members of the Trump clan who were front and center included Don Jr. and Guilfoyle; Ivanka Trump, her husband, Jared Kushner, and their three children; and Tiffany Trump and her husband, Michael Boulos.

Trump’s other son, Eric Trump, and his wife, Lara, were not seen.

The ex-first lady’s noticeable absence came just days after Page Six sources revealed Melania was planning to step up her public appearances in 2024 as her husband ramps up his White House bid.
