People are losing their minds after spotting detail about Barron Trump after the US elections I had no clue! Check Comments
The online community is buzzing over Barron, the towering Trump who stole the spotlight from his father on election night.
People are gobsmacked over the youngest member of the Trump family, who’s completely transformed over the past four years, from a 14-year-old teenager to an 18-year-old Trump tower.
Barron, the only child Trump shares with Melania, was born on March 20, 2006, and is the youngest brother, by many years, to Donald Jr. (46), Ivanka (42), Eric (40), and Tiffany (30), who’s the shortest of the family at 5-foot-8. In 2021, when Barron was only 15, he towered over his father and his mom, who’s 5-foot-11.
“Barron is 6-foot-7, can you believe it? And he’s 15,” Trump then said. “Eric is short – he’s only 6-foot-6,” he joked of Eric, who was outgrown by his baby brother.
6-foot-3, Donald Trump is one of the tallest presidents in American history, falling short to only two other commanders-in-chief: Lyndon Johnson at 6-foot-3.5 (36th president), and the 16th president, Abraham Lincoln, who was 6-foot-4.
Given Trump’s massive stature, it’s not surprising that his children are also very tall, with baby Barron eclipsing the entire family in height.
Years later, the doting father gushed over his youngest son, who started his freshman year at New York University in 2024.
“He’s a very high aptitude child, but he’s no longer a child. He’s just passed into something beyond child-dom. He’s doing great,” Trump told the Daily Mail. “He was accepted to a lot of colleges…He’s a very smart guy, and he’ll be going to Stern, the business school, which is a great school at NYU.”
The camera-shy Barron was not regularly seen with his father’s side as he rallied across the country, so images of the now grown man – who’s heads above his parents – were jarring.
Joking about his son’s height, Trump credits his wife’s mother Amalija Knavs, who died in January 2024: “They’re great people, great parents to all of us really. Great parents, but also to Barron. Boy did she take care of Barron,” Trump said on election night. “That’s how he got so tall – he only ate her food.”
“So tall” is an understatement. The young man experienced a massive growth spurt since the last time he was photographed and estimates put him at about 6-foot-9.
One shocked netizen tweets, “Barron is now so tall that the pictures of him look photoshopped,” while a second writes, “One way that it is definitely not 2016 all over again, is that Barron Trump is like 7 feet tall now.”
“Barron Trump may very well be just three normal height humans stacked on top of one another,” a third person shares.
