Barron Trump, the 19-year-old son of US President Donald Trump, is reportedly dating a fellow student at New York University. The 6ft 9in teenager has been quietly seeing a classmate, though details about her identity remain scarce.
The news comes after Barron completed his first year at NYU and returned to Trump Tower. In October 2024, Donald Trump told the PBD podcast that he was unsure if his son had a girlfriend yet, saying: 'I'm not sure he's there yet. I don't think he's had a girlfriend yet. He doesn't mind being alone but he's somebody that gets along with people.'
Interest in Barron's love life intensified after a TikToker named Maddie claimed to be his 'first BF' (best friend), posting videos of them together at school and stating they broke up when he moved to St. Andrews Potomac in Virginia. He has also been linked to a Sarah Claire and model Klara Jones, who is two years older.
Despite past perceptions of being shy, Barron has shown a confident side. At a Mar-a-Lago dinner last year, guests were impressed by his ability to hold court for 90 minutes. Entrepreneur Patrick Bet-David recalled on his podcast: 'I've never seen Tom laugh this hard for an hour and a half.' Comedian Vincent Oshana described Barron as 'witty, smart, hilarious' and knowledgeable about politics, adding: 'He's got a good head on his shoulders.'
