You're on your own, Don! Melania has 'no interest' in being first lady again and helping Trump with his 'political ambitions'

Melania Trump wants nothing more than to avoid another term as first lady, according to a Sunday report, as her husband inches closer and closer to another White House bid.

'Being first lady again is not what she wants,' a person who had a close relationship with Melania when she was first lady told CNN. 'For her, it was a chapter – and it's over, and that's that.'

Several people, according to the Sunday article, claim Melania has 'zero desire' to return to the White House or continue any public political life.

Another person aware of the former first lady's disinterest in Trump's presidential and political ambitions said: 'You're not going to see her at rallies or campaign events, even if he 'officially' says he's running again.'

Replacing Melania for these public appearances, the source said, would be the likes of Trump's son's partners – Lara Trump, the wife of Eric Trump and Kimberly Giulfoyle, the girlfriend of Donald Trump Jr.

Another person said if Trump were to run again, Melania would be replaced on the campaign trail with daughter-in-law Lara Trump , who is married to Eric Trump, and Kimberly Giulfoyle , the girlfriend of Don Jr.

'They have that same urge Trump has to again; Melania absolutely does not,' the individual revealed.

Unclear from the report is whether Trump's daughter Ivanka and her husband Jared Kushner, who both served in prominent roles in the administration, would join the former president on the campaign trail.

A source who spoke with CNN said Melania view's Trump's continued interest in politics as his job and not hers.

Melania Trump, 51, is considered by many one of the most private first ladies in modern history.

The former first lady has only been spotted once this summer, while leaving Trump Tower in Manhattan in early July with son Barron Trump, 15. 

During the 2016 campaign, Melania so often refused to appear at events, a political operative who worked on Trump's team in the early days said they eventually 'just stopped asking altogether.'

While serving as first last, Melania didn't even participate in five on-camera interviews and engaged in zero print media interviews.

The Slovene-American former model returned to Mar-a-Lago in August where she will reside full time with Barron as he attends private school in the area. 

'The Trump voter puts on a pedestal,' an operative told CNN. 'They're awed by the way she looks or the way she basically doesn't express ideas or opinions, which they see as stoicism and loyalty.'

'For them, that's enough for fealty,' they added.

A person who has been in Melania's social circle for more than a decade said her life is more private now than it could ever be in Washington, and 'that's how she likes it.'

'The more she can be private and not in the public eye, the better,' they added. 'And there's nothing wrong with that. I mean, if every single person in the world watched your every move for four or five years, and that wasn't comfortable for you -- just imagine how triggering that must have been.'

In February, the former first lady announced in February she was opening her post-White House office, but the Twitter account has largely been void of any announcement of Melania's life after leaving Washington.
