President Donald Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr is getting married to Bettina Anderson in the Bahamas. All eyes are on the Trump family members as the two are expected to tie the knot in a picturesque private island wedding.
Since the president publicly announced that he’d not be attending Don Jr’s wedding, questions are being raised whether First Lady of the US Melania Trump will be in attendance.

“I hope he and Melania sneak off to Don Jr. and Bettina’s wedding,” one person wrote on X. Another wrote “Trump announced that he was skipping Don Jr.’s wedding on the same day that Iran’s assassination plot against Ivanka was uncovered.”
