Doral golf course
as his father praised his intelligence, demeanour, and growing popularity. "This is a young man.
He just turned 18—oh, look at this," the 78-year-old former president said, pausing as the crowd's cheers grew louder.

Barron Trump: What you ought to know
Barron Trump is the only child of former First Lady
Melania Trump
and former President Donald Trump. While his dad was in office, from 2017 to 2021, Barron was the only one of the president’s five children to reside in the White House. Although Barron has occasionally appeared beside his father, he largely stayed out of the public eye in his youth.
Barron William Trump was born on March 20, 2006, in New York City. His parents are former President Donald Trump, who first gained fame as a real estate mogul, and former First Lady Melania Trump, who was previously a model.
As the youngest of the former president’s five children from his three marriages, Barron has four half-siblings: Don Jr., Ivanka, Eric, and, Tiffany. However, he was effectively raised as an only child because he is between 13 and 29 years younger than his siblings. Although he and Tiffany could have shared part of their childhoods, she was raised in the Los Angeles area after her mother, Marla Maples, and Donald Sr. divorced in 1999.
