■ The first family is together again under the same roof: the White House. After nearly five months of living apart, President Donald Trump’s wife, Melania, announced that she and the couple’s young son, Barron, have moved into the Executive Mansion at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Mother and son broke with tradition by having lived at Trump Tower in New York since the inauguration so that Barron, now 11, could finish the school year uninterrupted; the president lived and worked at the White House. “Looking forward to the memories we’ll make in our new home! #Movingday,” the first lady tweeted Sunday evening after she and Barron arrived at the White House with Trump. The tweet accompanied a photo of the Washington Monument as seen from the White House Red Room. The president, who spent the weekend at his private golf club in Bedminster, N.J., had said on several occasions that his wife and son would move to the White House after the school year. Trump celebrates his 71st birthday on Wednesday and got his gift a few days early. Melania Trump said last month that Barron will attend a private school in Maryland in the fall, pointing toward the move to the White House. One remaining question had to do with a move-in date, and Mrs. Trump answered it Sunday. Her spokesman, Stephanie Grisham, confirmed the move by email and on Twitter.
■ Sean “Diddy” Combs is the top earner on Forbes’ list of the 100 highest-paid celebrities. The magazine says the artist formerly known as Puff Daddy took in $130 million from June 1, 2016, to June 1, 2017. Forbes says Combs’ Bad Boy Family Reunion Tour, a stake in Ciroc vodka and the $70 million sale of one-third of his Sean John clothing line all contributed to his earnings. No. 2 on the list is Beyonce, with $105 million in earnings. Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling brought in $95 million. Rapper Drake and Portuguese soccer superstar Cristiano Ronaldo round out the top five. Last year’s top earner, Taylor Swift, dropped to No. 49.
