Why Melania Trump Skipped Tiffany Trump’s Baby Shower

Tiffany Trump, the daughter of Donald Trump and Marla Maples, has long preferred to stay out of the limelight, keeping a lower profile compared to her high-profile half-siblings. Despite a more distant relationship with her father—who once remarked he was proud of her “to a lesser extent”—Tiffany has carved out her own path. Now married to Michael Boulos, Tiffany is preparing to welcome their first child, a baby boy.
Recently, Tiffany celebrated a beautiful baby shower, thoughtfully organized by her half-sister Ivanka Trump. Photos shared on Instagram captured the joyful celebration, with Ivanka writing, “Tiff, you’re going to be the most wonderful mama.” Despite the warmth of the occasion, Melania Trump, who has shared a generally positive relationship with Tiffany, was notably absent. A source close to the family told People magazine that Melania had “no reason” to attend, as she had already planned a weekend with her son Barron in New York. Donald Trump, too, was missing from the event.
Amid family complexities and past tensions, Tiffany continues to prioritize her growing family, remaining particularly close to Ivanka as she embraces this new chapter of her life.
