Melania Trump is “furious” over the “24/7 tornado” her life has become in the 14 months since husband
Donald Trump‘s inauguration, a source close to the first lady tells PEOPLE.
“What’s happening is exactly what she didn’t want to happen,” the source says. “They’ve literally become like the Kardashians:
scandals, divorces, headlines.”
A never-ending string of controversies have trailed Trump throughout his campaign and presidency — from his
“grab ’em by the p—y” comments, to the special counsel investigation into Russia’s election meddling, to the
Karen McDougal and
Stormy Daniels affair allegations. Most recently, the president’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., has been in the headlines after wife Vanessa filed for divorce and allegations surfaced that he had an affair with former
Celebrity Apprentice contestant Aubrey O’Day.
Amid all the chaos, Melania is yearning for the peace and simplicity of her pre-White House life.
