Melania Trump was noticeably absent from her husband Donald Trump’s Super Tuesday celebration at Mar-a-Lago — their home in Palm Beach, Fla. — following a victorious presidential primary election.
The former US president, 77, spoke in front of hundreds of supporters at the club’s gilded ballroom after securing his third consecutive Republican presidential nomination.
“This was an amazing night, an amazing day, it’s been an incredible period of time in our country’s history,” Donald said during his victory speech.

His sons Donald Trump Jr. and Eric Trump were seen attending the Super Tuesday watch party.
Donald’s eldest daughter, Ivanka Trump — like Melania — was not present, but it’s been widely known that she would no longer be playing a big role in her father’s political pursuits.
Although the “Apprentice” alum appeared — for the most part — in good spirits over the win, many people took to social media to chat about Melania, 53, being a no-show.

“It was Super Tuesday night. It was his victory speech. It was at Mar-a Lago. His wife Melania was not there,” one person wrote via X Wednesday.
“He’s trying to get more Women to support him but it doesn’t look good when the most important Woman in his life doesn’t appear to support him.”
Another surmised that perhaps the couple may be having marital issues, weighing in, “How come Trump was so sad last night? He should have been happy last night doing so well on Super Tuesday.
“Was it because Melania wasn’t there to support him. I think something is going on with them.”
