Amalija Knavs, the mother of former first lady Melania Trump, has died at the age of 78.

“It is with deep sadness that I announce the passing of my beloved mother, Amalija,” Trump wrote on X Tuesday.

“Amalija Knavs was a strong woman who always carried herself with grace, warmth, and dignity. She was entirely devoted to her husband, daughters, grandson, and son-in-law. We will miss her beyond measure and continue to honor and love her legacy.”

Trump did not disclose a cause of death.

Trump was missing from a family Christmas photo featuring her husband, former President Donald Trump, and three of his five children because she had been at Knavs’ side in the hospital.

This is a developing story.
