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.

The former first lady had offered no explanation for her decision not to attend next week's swearing-in ceremony.

President-elect Donald Trump’s 2025 inauguration weekend is here, and while many familiar faces are confirmed to attend his Jan. 20 ceremony, one notable name is missing from the guest list: Michelle Obama .
