President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump’s son, Barron Trump, was at his father's inaugurations in 2017 and 2025. Aged 10, when his father became the president for the first time, he is now 6 foot 7 inches tall and stole the spotlight in 2025. Currently studying at New York University, he played a key role in his father’s successful bid for a second White House term, earning a heartfelt shoutout from the president at the recent inauguration event.

“I have a very tall son named Barron… has anyone ever heard of him?” Donald Trump says as the attendees break into loud cheer. “He knew the youth vote. We won the youth vote by 36 points. He was saying - 'Dad, you have to go out and do this one or that one'. We did a lot of them. He respects them all, he understood them very well,” the president further adds
