The nation is in mourning today after the death of former First Lady Barbara Bush on Tuesday night. Melania Trump has spoken out to honor the former First Lady and announce plans to attend her funeral on Saturday.
“Mrs. Trump intends to pay her respects to Barbara Bush and the entire family at the funeral on Saturday,” Melania’s Communications Director Stephanie Grisham told Daily Mail.
Grisham went on to explain that Melania will not be accompanied by reporters, as the First Lady wants to respect the privacy of the Bush family at this time.
“The event will not be pooled as this is about paying tribute to Mrs. Bush,” Grisham said.
