Melania Refused to Move Into the Whitehouse Until Obama's Toilet Was Ripped Out
|
 [TheSun] Picky Melania thought the living quarters at the presidential residence were a dump, her former adviser Stephanie Winston Wolkoff is set to claim in Melania and Me: The Rise and Fall of My Friendship with the First Lady, out next month.
"Melania just flat out refused to move to Washington DC until it had been completely redesigned and revamped," a book insider said.
| Who would live in construction mess if they didn’t have to? And a wise trailing spouse allows the newly transferred worker 3-6 months on his/her own to climb the job’s learning curve without distraction, if at all possible. |
"Stephanie talks about how she took one look at her bedroom and bathroom and demanded a new shower and toilet.
| I found the house we are now living in, but I demanded the carpet in the family room be torn out and replaced with oak to match the kitchen and entrance, the adjacent floor refinished to make a seamless whole, and all the dark and depressing wallpaper removed in the public rooms. In the end we repainted all the rest of the rooms as well. |
"She was not prepared to use the same bathroom as the Obamas or anyone else for that matter - it wouldn’t matter if it was the Queen of England.
"She wanted everything redecorated, repainted, new furniture and decor - everything was old and shabby and she wanted it to be brand new.
"Melania is the wife of the president and doesn’t expect she should have to make do with second hand or previously used facilities.
"In fact she seemed to be much more concerned about the decor than she did about allegations of her husband’s alleged infidelity, according to Stephanie."
| She knew the man she married — his history has been splashed over the gossip pages for decades for all to see, after all. And she not only was a first rank professional model but she also married a hotelier — the details of such things must be their everyday discussions. Finally, as the wife of a billionaire, she is accustomed to having her surroundings adjusted to her taste. There are no revelations from Ms Stephanie’s tittle-tattle. |
Melania ended up staying put in her gold-encrusted quarters in the Trump Tower penthouse in New York while the bathroom was redone and other improvements were made to Michelle Obama’s old living space.
| From the before and after photos I’ve seen, the renovations were well and tastefully done... and very likely as necessary as the rest of the structural repairs resulting from long-neglected maintenance President Trump ordered and oversaw. |
Son Barron remained with her and she ended up extending her stay to July 2017, when his school term ended.
| That’s how I would have handled it, and almost did when Mr. Wife was almost transferred to China one Friday. Thank goodness by Monday it all was straightened out, so we didn’t need to move to a fourth country in less than 18 months. |
With taxpayers shelling out $150,000 a day for Melania’s security at the tower, rumors started to circulate about why she hadn’t moved with her husband, the source said.
| In retrospect, one wonders how much the anonymous source had to do with starting those rumours — could it have been Ms Stephanie Winston Wolkoff herself? |
