The White House confirmed First Lady Jill Biden delivered a handwritten letter for Melania Trump.
Future First Lady Melania Trump will not be attending a meeting with President-elect Donald Trump and President Joe Biden on Wednesday, her office confirmed, with the White House confirming that first lady Jill Biden gave the president-elect a handwritten letter intended for Melania.
“Mrs. Trump will not be attending today’s meeting at the White House. Her husband’s return to the Oval Office to commence the transition process is encouraging, and she wishes him great success,” her office said in a statement.
Over the past weekend, multiple rumors emerged on social media and in news outlets that she would not be attending a meeting with First Lady Jill Biden due to an FBI search of Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida in August 2022 for classified documents.
However, her office’s statement, posted on social media platform X, appeared to refute those claims.
“In this instance, several unnamed sources in the media continue to provide false, misleading, and inaccurate information,” her office said. “Be discerning with your source of news.”
The statement did not elaborate on why she would not be attending the event, which will be the first meeting between Trump and Biden since the president-elect won the 2024 election last week.
The White House said in a statement that First Lady Biden joined President Biden in greeting the president-elect upon his arrival to the White House on Wednesday morning. She gave Trump a handwritten letter of congratulations for Melania Trump, which expressed her team’s willingness to assist with the transition.
Since leaving the White House in January 2021, Melania Trump has kept a relatively low profile and did not attend many of her husband’s campaign events and rallies, but she started making more campaign appearances after her husband survived an assassination attempt in mid-July at a Pennsylvania rally.
