An aide to Melania Trump on Wednesday confirmed that the First Lady will move to the White House starting at the beginning of the summer.

"Mrs. Trump will be moving to D.C. and settling into the White House at the end of the school year, splitting her time between New York and D.C. in the meantime," Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, senior adviser to the First Lady told ABC News. "Mrs. Trump is honored to serve this country and is taking the role and responsibilities of the First Lady very seriously."

The confirmation comes after a rumor sparked by tabloids early Wednesday morning that the First Lady and her 10-year-old son Barron Trump were not considering a move to Washington, D.C. from New York City.

Later on Wednesday, the White House also announced that Lindsay Reynolds would be joining the First Lady’s team as her Chief of Staff.

"I am putting together a professional and highly-experienced team which will take time to do properly,” the First Lady said in a White House press release....

The steady flow of phony news stories about the First Family has become tiresome, and they have only been First Family for the last what? TWO WEEKS!! It’s not Donald’s fault that so many writers submit a piece without vetting or verifying the details. The liberal appetite for negative pieces about this family seems insatiable. The more bizarre or lurid, all the better.

Kaput to the vicious rumors published in that US rag that even DRUDGE featured.

Thank God that he has given Donald Trump such an admirable, lovable, wonderful helpmate like Melania.

The press is even more dishonest than President Trump says. They are despicable beyond measure.
It is obvious to anyone with sight that the First Lady and our President have a deep and comfortable love relationship.

Of course she’s coming to DC.

"Mrs. Trump is honored to serve this country and is taking the role and responsibilities of the First Lady very seriously."

And she does.

There won't be any petulant lectures from Melania about how disappointed she is with America.

Melania is not a political wife... she has no ambitions for higher office.

People compare her to Hillary during the Bill Clinton presidency and they’re very different women.

So far I like her. She seems classy, diplomatic and soft spoken. I can relate to that and it’s a breath of fresh air in the face of certain previous first ladies, big mouthed celebs, and today’s so-called “feminists.”

“It has been an honor to take on the responsibility of the position of First Lady, with its long history as an important representative of the President, our family, and the traditions of our nation around the world,” the First Lady said in the statement.

That would be quite a weight loss. Nutri Systems?

Not only that .. but Melania is extremely SMART. She and Donald made the choice for her to stay in NY so Barron could finish the school year. I suspect they will enter him into a D.C. location school, once she and Barron get moved into the WH.

Or, she might elect to have him tutored at the WH.

I trust her judgement re her child.

But yesterday’s news was she wouldn’t be moving into the White House. This news media is totally out of control.
