Barron Trump is it Gen Z son of Donald TrumpFormer President of the United States and the 2024 Republican candidate presidential electionand Melania Trump. He was born on 20 March 2006 and is Anders’ fifth and youngest child and Melania’s only child.

Unlike other children of the former president, the 18-year-old has led a private and elusive life, rarely seen at public events. But this year has been different. Although he hasn’t actively appeared on the campaign trail ahead of the presidential election, Barron has been an “unofficial advisor” on podcast appearances to his father—and he’s been successful at it. According to ABC News“Trump’s interview on streamer Adin Ross’ show has received more than 2.6 million views since August 5. His appearance on This Past Weekend with Theo Von has received over 14 million views since August 20. His interview on Flagrant has taken more than 5.7 million views since October 9, and his chat on PBD Podcast has amassed over 2.7 million views since October 17.” Barron became his father’s gateway to a younger audience. “As a member of Gen Z, Barron — the youngest of Trump’s three sons — was the one who introduced his 78-year-old father to this new medium, a source close to Trump told ABC News.

Barron, began attending New York University’s Stern School of Business this fall.

With a height of 6ft 7in, Barron has gained a lot of attention for his good looks, with social media platforms such as Instagram filled with his fan pages. According to his father, Barron’s impressive height is thanks to the food he ate, prepared by his late grandmother, Melania’s mother, Amalija Knavs.

Barron’s name was chosen by his father. During a performance at The Oprah Winfrey ShowAnders had said: “It’s a name I’ve always loved, but I’ve never had the courage to use. I gave the idea to Melania and then I had to take it away at the very end. She said, ‘You can’t take it away! I’ve called him Barron while he’s been in my belly and you just can’t take that away!’”

His mother, Melania, is from Slovenia, and as a result Barron is bilingual – he can speak both English and Slovenian.
