Eric Trump has stirred new controversy with claims that the Biden administration tried to “break up” his father’s marriage to Melania Trump. During an interview on Rob Schmitt Tonight on Newsmax, Eric alleged that government officials went beyond politics, attempting to “sour the relationship” between the former president and the First Lady. “They’ve done everything—investigations, court cases, smears—and even tried to tear apart our family,” he said, calling it part of a long-running “witch hunt.”

While Eric offered no proof to support the accusation, his comments quickly reignited speculation about Donald and Melania’s relationship—a subject that has long fascinated both political watchers and celebrity media. Since leaving the White House, Melania has largely avoided the campaign trail, favoring privacy over public appearances. Her absence has fueled recurring rumors of distance, though Donald Trump has repeatedly praised her as “a great First Lady” and “a strong, private, and very smart woman.”

Critics were quick to label Eric’s statement as political theater, suggesting it was designed to distract from the former president’s ongoing legal troubles. Analysts noted there’s no evidence of any government attempt to interfere in the Trumps’ marriage, describing the claim as part of a familiar narrative of persecution. Still, Trump supporters rallied around the sentiment, viewing Eric’s remarks as a symbol of family loyalty and resilience under pressure.

Regardless of where the truth lies, Eric Trump’s comments have once again blurred the line between politics and personal life. As Donald Trump campaigns for another term, the fascination with his marriage—and the larger story of how family, image, and power intertwine—continues to dominate headlines. Whether this was strategy or sincere concern, it’s clear the Trump family remains one of America’s most-watched households.
