Former and future first lady Melania Trump has criticized Barack and Michelle Obama for making her and Donald 's first move into the White House "challenging," accusing the former first couple of "withholding" information that would have smoothed the transition between administrations.

While all of the living former presidents will attend Monday’s inauguration, they have declined Donald Trump’s invite to the celebratory luncheon afterward. Former Presidents Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, nor George W. Bush will be there — and that might be making the biggest statement of all.

Melania Trump is set to return to the White House as First Lady after her husband won his second term in office in; however, she is not expected to move to Washington D.C. full-time

Former first lady Michelle Obama won’t attend President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration, though former President Barack Obama will be there, the Obamas' office said in a statement. No reason was given.

Michelle Obama was the only spouse absent at the funeral service at Washington National Cathedral, where her husband and Trump were seated next to each other and chatted and laughed like old friends despite the history of political animosity between the Democratic former president and the returning Republican.
