Melania Trump accompanied her husband at a polling location in Palm Beach, Florida, on Tuesday, making a rare public appearance this election season.
When asked by a reporter if she would accompany the former president on the campaign trail, the former first lady simply smiled and said, “Stay tuned,” but nothing else.
Following the vote, the Trumps strolled away from reporters beaming, arm in arm.
Campaign advisers have previously shared videos of the pair together at Mar-a-Lago for private events, most recently hosting Hungary’s Prime Minister Viktor Orban.
Melania Trump spoke during a naturalization ceremony at Washington’s National Archives in December, but her husband did not accompany her.
Donald Trump frequently mentions his wife’s disapproval of his occasionally profane vocabulary and dancing movements at campaign rallies, describing them as “unprofessional.”
In a September interview with NBC News, when questioned about his wife campaigning alongside him, Trump claimed she’d be out there “soon” and “at the appropriate time,” but added that he prefers to “keep her away.”
“She is currently at school with Barron,” Trump stated. “She adores that boy. She is quite popular. And she will be with us. “She’s extremely supportive.”
“Pretty soon, when it’s appropriate, but pretty soon,” he said. “She is a private person, a wonderful person, and a very confident individual. And she cares deeply about our country. She’ll arrive at the perfect time.”
“She will be out there, and I like to keep her away from that. “It’s so nasty and mean,” Trump stated.
