18-year-old Barron has been largely kept outside the spotlight by his mother, Melania Trump.
Now that heās legally an adult, he will begin making his own decisions, and only time will
tell if that means a life inside the storm of media attention. During his high school days
in Palm Beach, Florida, practically nothing was leaked about how he was or how he was
doing in school, except for when one student offered some insights anonymously.
Barron was with his family for the entire of Inauguration Day, even receiving praise for his crucial
role in helping his fatherās election cause. He was also credited by many for his way of handling
himself around the Washington elite, and one body language expert stated that Barron had become
a powerhouse. So, what is Barron really like? His stylist, a business associate to the Trumpās, now reveals the truth.
Barron Trumpās life has changed significantly in the last year. After graduating from Oxbridge Academy
in Palm Beach, Florida, the youngest son of President Donald Trump had many options for his college studies.
Ultimately, he decided on New York University, where heās currently attending Sternās Business School.
Speaking with the Daily Mail, Donald Trump explained that his son considered following in his footsteps
by attending Pennsylvania Universityās Wharton School. In the end, however, he opted to stay
in the Big Apple, the city where he was raised. Stern Business School is considered
one of Americaās best business schools, with only 1 in 20 applicants making it onto the undergraduate program.
āItās a very high-quality place. He liked it. He liked the school,ā Trump told DailyMail.com.
āWe liked NYU. Iāve known NYU for a long time, but itās one of the highest-rated schools.ā
āI went to Wharton, and that was certainly one that we were considering. We didnāt do that,ā Trump continued.
āWe went for Stern. Heās a very high-aptitude child, but heās no longer a child.
Heās just passed into something beyond childhood. Heās heās doing great.ā
Barron Trump went viral for his height on inauguration day
The British news outlet has spoken to several students at New York University,
with some saying that Barron has become very popular among the ladies.
Meanwhile, Secret Service agents follow him around everywhere.
Melania Trump is doing all she can to support her son and will, during her second term as first lady,
split her time between Washington and New York in order to be closer to him. On Monday 20,
the 18-year-old had to skip classes for something quite significant as his
father was sworn in as the 47th President of the United States.
Due to the freezing weather, Trump took his oath of office inside the Capitol Rotunda.
His entire family, including Barron, was by his side for the inauguration.
Around election day, fans worldwide heard Barron speak for the first time in ages,
and it became apparent that he has dropped the Slovenian accent he spoke with as a child.
Meanwhile, the fact that he now towers over all and sundry never fails to leave people stunned.
It was much the same at his fatherās inauguration, where Barron ā thanks to his height
ā was easily visible. One TikTok user posted a video that gained particular attention.
Barron had the best seat in the house, and a clearly shorter woman sat behind him.
She couldnāt see anything, which social media users quickly pointing out.
āNobody having a worse day than this woman who had a prime spot until 6ft 7in Barron Trump took his seat,ā one user wrote.
A second person said, āThis is freaking hilarious.ā A third stated: āShe can only see the ceiling.ā
Praised for his interaction with Joe Biden
As mentioned, Barron was among the Washington elite at the inauguration.
He interacted with many of them, but one interaction spread like wildfire: the one between Barron and Joe Biden.
Biden smiled as he interacted with Barron, but after they shared some words,
the former presidentās happy expression changed to a more solemn one.
Social media users worldwide were dying to know what the presidentās son had said.
Moreover, Barron was praised online for greeting both Biden and Kamala Harris.
āI was very impressed by that gesture and from someone so young. To go across
the aisle and shake their hands was a very classy and mature thing to do. Good for Barron,ā one person wrote.
Another added: āSuch a good young manā¦ That gesture just tells you everything. Well done, Melania.ā
As per the Daily Mail, the TikTok video of Barron and Biden had been viewed
over half a million times as of Wednesday. One person joked: āLooks like he said, āYouāre done.āā
Speaking with the Daily Mail, body language expert and communications coach
Judi James had another theory. She explained that Barron āvery confidentlyā
and ācharminglyā bent to shake hands with Biden.
āAnd although Bidenās face seems to fall as though Barron has passed on some kind
of sinister threat or message, the truth was less dramatic as Barron seemed to
be leaning to greet Kamala and Bidenās face was registering the fact that heād finished his greeting ritual with Trumpās son,ā James said.
āHe stood like a rock starā
She added that Barronās humor and so-labeled āsuper-confidenceā have led people to misread what Donaldās son really couldāve said to Biden.
āWhen he was introduced by his father, he stood like a rock star acknowledging the cheers and chants of his name and even cupped his ear to increase them. Which is probably why people might assume (wrongly Iād say) that heās possibly making barbed comments on his way out here,ā James continued.
Moreover, James explained that Barron was āworking as a sweeperā during the inauguration, a role he frequently takes on when appearing with his father at any event.
āThis means he tends to arrive and leave behind his parents, but instead of just walking off behind them as he did when he was younger, he spends time shaking hands and offering gracious-looking words,ā James continued, concluding by saying that ādefinesā Barronās presence and status without having to compete with his father.
āHe lets everyone know that he is becoming a force to be reckoned with in his own right and because of his height and the increase in his confidence signals, it gives him a rather princely air, presence-wise. Biden had been on the receiving end of a flame-thrower speech from Trump, where he had sat in a variety of poses including pained deflation and bravado smiling as his entire four years in office were scorched to ashes.ā
Just like his mother and father, Barron received professional help with his outfits for the inauguration. Over the years, the teenagerās style has evolved and developed as he has grown. When he was pictured during his fatherās first presidential term, the then-young boy was often seen wearing shorts and a regular t-shirt. However, only the choicest, most luxurious look was good enough for the inauguration this time around.
Stylist reveals how Barron Trump is really like
Barron reportedly worked with luxury styling service Bespoke Pearceās chief executive officer, Nathan Pearce, who helped the presidentās son select several suits, dress shirts, and a cashmere overcoat for the grand occasion. In an interview with Womenās Wear Daily, Pearce revealed some interesting things about Barron and his personality. Because of his private life, some might believe that Barron is relatively closed and quiet. However, that is far from the truth, according to Nathan Pearce.
āHeās this super-bright kid. Heās well beyond his years in terms of experience, knowledge, history. Heās just very fascinating to talk to,ā he told Womenās Wear Daily.
āYou know what is another word I would say [about him]? Hospitable. He is down-to-earth, nice as can be and hospitable,ā Pearce continued, recalling how Barron shook his hand when they first met, thanking him multiple times when he arrived at Mar-a-Lago. The youngster even offered to show the stylist around the Palm Beach estate.
āIāve thoroughly enjoyed getting to know him over the last one or two years,ā Pearce explained. He added that he didnāt take Trumpās business for granted, wanting him to be very happy with his outfit.
āI recognize that Barron Trump could be choosing from tailors all over the world, and he chose me and Pearce Bespoke. Iām super-grateful and super-proud of that,ā Pearce added.
āHeās hilariousā
Donald Trump might not be known for his great sense of humor, though that idea in itself is a debate to be had another time. It appears as though the apple doesnāt fall far from the tree, with Pearce labeling Barronās humor ādry.ā
āHeās hilarious. But as I said, heās super-sharp. You put him in a room with star businessmen and he will hold his own. He can talk to them all day because heās witty, smart and has a dry sense of humor,ā the stylist concluded.
āI tell my franchisers and clothiers across the country, āLook, Iām not anything special. Itās just a matter of taking care of your clients. You can meet the right client at the right time, who loves their clothes and shows them off to the right people.ā
āIf youāve done your job and youāve made them happy, they will tell the world about you. If you donāt, and you drop the ball and forget about customer service, they still tell the world about you,ā he said.
