Melania Trump has been quite busy promoting her new self-titled documentary all about her life as First Lady, which comes out at the end of the month. Despite her commitment to the project, though, her husband recently admitted that he doesn’t really pay much attention to what she’s doing. This doesn’t do much to quell the rumors that they’re living separate lives. Keep reading for more information.

Donald Trump Hasn’t Watched Melania’s Documentary

Speaking to reporters aboard Air Force One earlier this month, Trump admitted that while he is very supportive of his wife’s new endeavor, he isn’t really up to date, and hasn’t even seen the full film yet. “I’ve seen pieces of it, it’s incredible,” he said. “I think it’s going to do very–you know, she did a book and the book was a big number one bestseller, and this is a movie, and it seems to be captivating a lot of people’s attention.”

The documentary, which is premiering on January 29th, is supposed to give “unprecedented access to the 20 days leading up to the 2025 presidential inauguration—through the eyes of the first lady-elect herself,” according to Amazon MGM Studios. The film is directed by Brett Ratner, who not only is featured in the Epstein files, but also has been accused of sexual misconduct by six different women.

Donald & Melania Living Separate Lives

This interaction doesn't help the rumors that Donald and Melania Trump are living separate lives despite being married and sharing a son together. Back in May, author Michael Wolff told theDaily Beast Podcast that they're effectively "separated" and "live separate lives."

This speculation is fueled by instances of Melania rarely attending events alongside her husband, spending time at her New York residence rather that at the White House or their Mar-a-Lago resort, and ultimately looking disinterested with one another when they are together. Though the White House responded to Wolff's claims by calling him a "lying sack of s***" and "a fraud," the rumors continue to spread.
