What we know about Barron Trump’s dating life!
Once Barron Trump turned 18 and started college, the topic of his dating life became a hot discussion—not just among the media, but within his own family too. As his father, Donald Trump, campaigned for the 2024 presidential election, he made several podcast appearances, including one on October 17 on the BPD Podcast with host Patrick Bet-David. During the interview, Donald openly talked about his son’s personal life, including Barron’s lack of a girlfriend. When asked if Barron had a special someone, Donald responded bluntly, saying, “I’m not sure he’s there yet,” and added that he didn’t think Barron had a girlfriend. He also mentioned that Barron is someone who “doesn’t mind being alone” but is generally friendly and gets along with others. Donald’s candid comments about his son’s private life caused a stir, but it didn’t end there—soon after, Barron’s older brother, Eric Trump, chimed in with his own thoughts on Barron’s dating future.
In an interview with the Daily Mail on October 29, Eric Trump gave his younger brother some rather peculiar advice. He told Barron, “You are the most watched person, probably the most watched bachelor in the world right now,” adding that he didn’t face the same level of attention at Barron’s age. Eric cautioned his brother to be careful because of all the eyes watching him. While this advice might seem a bit over-the-top, it reflects the level of public scrutiny Barron faces as the youngest member of the Trump family.
Barron’s college classmates at New York University (NYU) also had opinions about his love life. One classmate joked to the Daily Mail that if Barron started dating at NYU, he’d “become kind of liberal.” But, considering Barron’s living situation and his mother’s role in his life, navigating a relationship at college might be a bit trickier than expected.
While Barron is attending NYU, he is still living at Trump Tower with his mom, Melania Trump. This is something that was confirmed when Barron was still finishing high school and deciding where to go to college. A source told People that Melania would likely follow her son wherever he chose to go, as her main focus has always been taking care of him. Given that Barron chose NYU, he ended up staying in the same familiar environment, living with Melania in Trump Tower. This setup could complicate his dating life, especially since Melania is reportedly very protective of her son and has been a doting mother. According to one source, this level of protectiveness is nothing new for her.
Before Barron made his final college decision, there was some speculation about whether he might choose a school near his rumored ex-girlfriend. A TikTok video by a user named Maddie, who claimed to have dated Barron in the past, went viral before Barron started his first semester at NYU. In the video, Maddie shared that she and Barron had attended Columbia Grammar and Preparatory School together, and she described him as a “little shy boy.” She also explained, in typical fashion, that they broke up because Barron went to Florida for the summer. Although Barron’s dating life seems relatively quiet, his family and classmates can’t help but share their opinions and thoughts about it, making it a subject of public curiosity.
