Melania Trump and her son Barron were spotted exiting Trump Tower in New York on Wednesday, making a brief public appearance while Donald rang in his 77th birthday at his golf course in Bedminster, New Jersey.
6-foot-7 Barron towered over his mom, who flashed a smile and a peek at her wedding ring in an apparent show of solidarity as the duo’s designer luggage and bags featuring the presidential emblem were placed into separate vehicles.
Their destination is unknown but Melania appeared to be in good spirits, stepping out wearing a $3,200 Gucci white dress with a high-end Hermes handbag in photos published by Daily Mail. Barron was clad in a blue suit and button-up.
The sighting came after Fox News host John Roberts apologized to viewers during a Tuesday broadcast because the network mistakenly misidentified a woman as Melania. The woman was later identified as former White House press aide Margo Martin.
That blunder happened on the day of Trump’s arraignment on federal charges in a case involving the handling of classified documents, for which the 2024 hopeful pleaded not guilty to 37 federal charges.
