Donald Trump’s niece says that she is considering changing her surname to cut all ties with her uncle.
Mary Trump, who wrote a memoir about the former president calling him the ‘world’s most dangerous man,’ says she fears the negative connotations her last name may bring in the future.
In an interview with the Sunday Telegraph, the 55-year-old clinical psychologist said: “The damage Donald has done to this country is incalculable. We’re just waiting to find out how much is irreparable.”
Mary also claimed that while she doesn’t feel Melania Trump wants a divorce, Donald doesn’t understand “affection or intimacy.”
Rumors that the first lady is not happy in her marriage were sparked when she ignored the waiting photographers upon their arrival in Florida.
Melania refused to stop and pose for photos while her husband smiled and waved for pictures at Palm Beach Airport.
Mary dismissed divorce claims but she alleged that her uncle is not capable of maintaining a healthy relationship.
“I don’t believe he understands affection or intimacy,” Mary claimed.
Former aide Stephanie Wolkoff claimed in November that the couple had a ‘transactional marriage’ and separate bedrooms in the White House, The Mail reported.
Fellow ex-aide Omarosa Manigault Newman also claimed: “Melania is counting every minute until he is out of office and she can divorce.”
In 2020, Mary published ‘Too Much and Never Enough: How My Family Created the World’s Most Dangerous Man.’
She says that she was not allowed to talk about family members publicly as part of the agreement made to settle the estate of her father, Fred Trump Jr, who passed away in 1982 after battling alcoholism.
Mary told CNN that Trump’s last day in office was “probably the worst day of his life.”
“This is probably the worst day of his life, because the clock is ticking and he’s running out of time,” she told Anderson Cooper of CNN.
“The other thing I just want to point out about that speech, it was reminiscent of a video he made after the insurrection saying the movement is just beginning, which seems like a bit of a threat to me,” she continued
“My hope is that he be as contained as possible. He’s going to do whatever he can or believes he can to change the narrative and I think we’re going to see that play out with some of these pardons in excess of 100, if I’m hearing that correctly, and some of these pardons will be quite horrific, some of them will be strategic.”
