Melania Trump Appoints New Chief of Staff

Melania Trump has appointed Hayley Harrison, her longtime aide, as her chief of staff in preparation for her return to the White House as first lady, marking her first hire for the upcoming administration. Harrison, who has been part of Melania's team for seven years, previously served as Director of Operations for the Office of the First Lady during Trump's first term. Known for her loyalty, Harrison was implicated in Donald Trump's classified documents mishandling case as 'Trump Aide 1', though she continues to be a key figure in Melania's team. Despite her new role, Melania Trump has stated she will not reside in the White House and plans to divide her time between New York and Florida. Her former chief of staff, Stephanie Grisham, resigned post the Capitol riot and has publicly supported Kamala Harris. Melania has maintained a low profile since leaving the White House, although she has been active in select political fundraising events.
