Trump Says Conviction Has Been ‘Very Hard’ for Melania Trump

Former President Donald Trump on Sunday revealed that his criminal trial and later conviction has been “very hard” for his wife, former first lady Melania Trump.

While several of the former president’s family members showed up at the six-week trial in Manhattan, the former first lady did not make any appearances. He was convicted on May 30 of falsifying business records for a payment plan meant to cover up allegations made about him during the 2016 election, which he has denied and pleaded not guilty.

In an interview that was aired Sunday on Fox News, President Trump said he is “fine” after the conviction, but “it’s very hard for her,” referring to Melania Trump.

“It’s tougher, I think it’s probably in many ways, it’s tougher on my family than it is on me,” he added.

When asked about how Mrs. Trump is doing, he responded: “She’s fine, but I think it’s very hard for her. I mean, she’s fine. But it’s, you know, she has to read all this [nonsense].”
