According to The Hill, Fox News anchor Ainsley Earhardt will be interviewing the former first lady, with the chat set to air on Thursday.

The two are expected to discuss Melania's memoir, the recent assassination attempts on her husband, Donald Trump, and Trump's strategy as the election in November quickly approaches.

The interview comes as Melania has been noticeably absent from the public eye and her husband's side as he runs for re-election since the January 6 Capitol riots.

In recent weeks, she has shared several brief video ads promoting her book, each addressing a particular personal issue of hers, such as her contempt for the media and her history in nude modeling.

Some of the clips have also addressed problems her husband has recently faced and even pushed some of his unfounded claims, leading some critics to speculate that she is slowly working her way back into the public eye to help him win re-election.

The interview will air on Thursday on the show Fox & Friends, which broadcasts from 6 AM to 9 AM ET, and an extended version of the interview will be available on the Fox Nation streaming service.
