Melania Trump spokesperson slams ‘The View’ over ‘mistress’ comment

A spokesperson for Melania Trump has expressed outrage over actress Yvette Nicole Brown’s suggestion that the first lady may have been President Trump’s mistress at one point.

Stephanie Grisham tweeted Friday: “Day 2 of attacks from @TheView. @YNB check your facts before you accuse someone of being a mistress. She’s your @FLOTUS – she deserves your respect & certainly not your lies. Disgusting.”

The tweet came the same day “The View” showed a clip of Melania Trump’s interview where she is asked about her husband’s alleged infidelities, and she says: “It is not a concern and focus of mine. I’m a mother and a first lady, and I have much more important things to think about and to do. I know people like to speculate and media like to speculate about our marriage.”

“I know what is right and what is wrong and what is true and not true,” she adds.

After the clip ended, Brown, who was a fill-in co-host on “The View,” asked: “Is it possible that she’s not concerned with his mistresses because she was one of them?”

None of the panelists responded directly to her question, but she was instead reminded that Melania Trump affirmed in the interview that she still loves her husband.
