During her time as FLOTUS, Melania Trump believed in a decidedly hands-off management style. In fact, former White House official and aide to Melania, Stephanie Grisham, claimed in her book “I’ll Take Your Questions Now: What I Saw at The Trump White House” that Melania was hardly ever in the East Wing offices. “Mrs. Trump was working from home long before the country was,” Grisham wrote. “When warranted, we would have in-person meetings, but those generally took place in the Map Room across from the elevators to the residence.”
Grisham said that Melania’s reluctance to leave her swanky private apartment and “[remain] in her tower, never descending” resulted in the Secret Service nicknaming her “Rapunzel.” Melania purportedly liked to sleep in and when she did communicate with her staff, it was rarely before 10 a.m. There was a reason behind the former model’s lackadaisical work ethic, though. “She believed that relaxation was central to one’s beauty regimen, as were, of course, spa treatments and facials,” Grisham wrote.
