UPDATE: The Oval Office meeting is underway. 

***Original story***

President-elect Donald Trump arrived back in Washington D.C. Wednesday morning ahead of a meeting with President Joe Biden at the White House. 

Former First Lady Melania Trump is not traveling with the President-elect and will not meet with current First Lady Jill Biden. 

"Mrs. Trump will not be attending today’s meeting at the White House.  Her husband’s return to the Oval Office to commence the transition process is encouraging, and she wishes him great success. In this instance, several unnamed sources in the media continue to provide false, misleading, and inaccurate information," the Office of Melania Trump released in a statement. "Be discerning with your source of news."
