Barron Trump, the son of Donald and Melania, is very private and is rarely seen in public. Melania has shared a very rare insight into his life and what he’s really like
Melania Trump recently shared a rare glimpse into her son Barron’s life, describing him as “amazing” while offering insight into his personality. Now 18 years old, Barron has been seen at rallies supporting his father, President Donald Trump, leading up to the November election.
Despite standing at an impressive 6 feet 7 inches tall, Barron prefers to keep a low profile. He is the only child of Donald and Melania.
In her memoir, Melania, the former First Lady pays tribute to her “remarkable” son and his ability to navigate life in the public eye. Reflecting on a moment from 2020, she wrote, “As Barron approached his fourteenth birthday, I was amazed at the remarkable young man he had become.”
Barron Trump is described as possessing a rare blend of intelligence, charm, and diligence. According to Melania Trump, he has remained himself in values and character despite all challenges brought on by his father’s election and presidency.
Melania has praised Barron for handling the public spotlight with “confidence and poise,” noting that he demonstrates a level of maturity well beyond his years. She also highlights his “thirst for knowledge” and his wide range of hobbies, as reported by the Irish Star.
Currently a college student, Barron is known for keeping a low profile. At school, he is very quiet and keeps to himself, having few friends with who he bonds through games.
The $88 backpack
Barron Trump is frequently seen carrying a simple black backpack, a simple choice that has drawn praise from many.
A TikTok content creator, known as Hot Star Stories, recently highlighted this in a video, questioning, “Why does Barron Trump always carry an $88 black school bag wherever he goes?” Despite being the son of former President Donald Trump and an heir to a fortune worth hundreds of millions, Barron consistently opts for an affordable and practical school bag.
The video reveals that, under his father’s influence, Barron has developed thrifty habits, rarely indulging in extravagance. Since beginning college, he has continued carrying the same $88 backpack, which helps him blend in with other students and maintain a low profile.
Carrying an unassuming school bag makes Barron appear more approachable in public and allows him to engage in everyday activities with greater ease.
The video also notes that Donald Trump has long opposed excessive spending and has, at times, donated his own money to charitable causes. In following his father’s principles, Barron has avoided purchasing luxury goods, even at 18 years old.
