bdmetronews Desk ॥ Vanessa’s move follows a report in the New York Post’s Page Six on Wednesday indicating the two were “headed to divorce.” Even though they had “not legally separated” yet, friends told the newspaper the two were already in the dreaded state of “living separate lives.” Donald Jr., an aspiring politico himself, has been, along with brother Eric Trump, running the Trump Organization and doing extensive traveling, including trips to feed his hunting passion.
“Vanessa is a devoted mother, but she is increasingly lonely and alone in the house with the children,” the newspaper reported. And their problems aren’t new. They “had hoped to stay together during the president’s time in office, but it is getting harder to resolve their issues. He’s never there.”
Furthermore Donald Jr.’s friends told the tabloid that he had “changed recently,” citing some of his tweets, including one attacking a teen survivor of the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting. Vanessa obviously had a very scary experience recently when she opened a letter, addressed to her husband at their home, that contained a threat as well as a mysterious white substance. She went to the hospital as a precaution.
The last year-plus of their lives has been truly a wild ride for the couple, both 40, but it really has never been dull from their first meeting — where they were introduced by the Donald — until now. Take a look …
2003: Donald Trump and his newly sober son Donald Jr. — who at that point was working off a reputation for drinking, womanizing, and frat boy antics — are at a fashion show. The future president, at the time engaged to Melania Knauss, spots the beautiful Vanessa Haydon — a native New Yorker, who modeled since childhood and was signed to Wilhelmina Models, and introduces himself and his son to her, Vanessa later recalled the meeting in a New York Times story, describing it as an awkward encounter. But it didn’t end there. At intermission for the same show, the Donald again approached Vanessa. “‘I don’t think you’ve met my son Donald Trump Jr.,’” Vanessa, who had been linked to Leonardo DiCaprio, remembered him saying. She replied, “Yeah, we just met, five minutes ago.”
