Marla Maples has spent her quarantine getting friendly with trees and hanging out with her late grandfather.
Speaking with BeondTV broadcaster Carlos Amezcua, President Trump’s second wife said, “I love the big city — that’s why I’m here. But I like it in balance with nature, so I’m getting to learn a whole near-other level of balancing nature within my one-bedroom apartment, 41 floors up!”
Maples, 56, said that to aid in her efforts to commune with the outdoors, “The last two days I jogged out to the park, literally grabbed a big tree and hugged on that tree … nature’s alive and that’s what we always have to remember — it’s a gift that’s always giving things.”
Meanwhile, she wrote on Instagram that isolation had made her realize “more than ever how close we are to those who may not walk this earth visually for us to see,” and said that she’d recently seen her grandfather “and I was reminded of the sweet times we shared and all that I learned from him.”
Maples had been quarantining alone in her Manhattan apartment but is now with her daughter, Tiffany Trump, at the family’s home in Georgia.
