While speaking on Fox News Channel’s Fox & Friends via People about her upcoming memoir, Melania, he talked about motherhood, and why she just wanted one child, instead of more like Donald did.
“I was always perfectly fine with one. And Donald was encouraging [us] to have more,” Melania said, adding the bombshell that she was basically in charge of everything. “And I said, like, ‘I’m completely fine with one because it’s [a] very busy life.’ I know how busy he is… and I’m in charge of everything. So that’s why. It’s just perfect.”
So, Melania just told everyone that since Donald was so busy, she mostly took care of Barron, and was “in charge of everything.” This makes sense considering what insiders have said in the past, about how Melania ensured privacy for him when he was a child, and making sure he has the best future.
“Melania’s main job is taking care of Barron, and I think it’s possible that she will follow him wherever he goes to school. Barron is shy and reserved, and she has been a good mother to him all of these years,” one insider told The Blast earlier this year.
For those who don’t know, Donald and Melania welcomed a son named Barron, born in March 2006. (Donald also has four children from previous marriages: Donald Jr., born in 1977; Ivanka, born in Oct 1981; and Eric, born in Jan 1984, and Tiffany, born in Oct 1993.)
Soon after she celebrated her first Mother’s Day, she did a super-rare interview with Palm Beach Post about how much she adores motherhood.
“The love. It’s unconditional love. [Being a new mother is] wonderful. Every mother knows this. It’s a miracle almost, I could say, that two people can create. It’s very, very special,” she said. “You can watch the baby, every move he makes. It’s just amazing. A great, great experience. I was very lucky. I had a beautiful pregnancy. Everyone is healthy and happy.”
