FORMER First Lady Melania Trump has been spotted at a Halloween party after she disappeared from the public eye for seven months.
She and former President Donald Trump attended the event at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida on Tuesday night.
The couple entered the party as Metallica’s Enter Sandman played and congratulated attendees on their costumes, The New York Post reported.
But Melania didn’t have a costume of her own.
She opted for a long-sleeved, knee-length black dress with a diamond choker and a blue clutch.
The is the first time Melania has been spotted in public since she was photographed at an Easter brunch at Mar-a-Lago in April.
She’s also been absent from all of the former president’s legal proceedings.
Megyn Kelly asked Trump about Melania’s absence from the public sphere during an interview in September.

“We haven’t seen much of Melania lately, how’s she doing?” the reporter asked.
“I think part of the beauty is that mystery,” the former president said.
“She doesn’t need to be out there. She has confidence. She has a lot of self-confidence.”
He added that the married couple gets along “very well” and that Melania has no interest in dealing with the press.
“She doesn’t need to be interviewed by you to get ripped apart for no reason,” the former president said.
The month prior, Melania’s former aide Stephanie Grisham – who also worked as a White House press secretary – spoke to CNN about the former first lady’s absence Trump’s legal proceedings in August.
Melania was “too busy” to attend, Grisham said.
“She is saying in her mind that this is his issue, he can deal with it,” she added.
“He doesn’t need me there to prop him up, I am too busy to go with him.
“That is who she is. She will show up by his side when she wants to and when she is perfectly ready.”
