Barron Trump, the first presidential son since JFK junior to live in the White House, is growing up fast and now towers over his parents. Here’s what we know about him
They grow up so fast, don't they? It seems like only yesterday that little Barron Trump, son of US President Donald Trump and first lady Melania, was standing next to his father as he gave his inaugural speech in 2017.
Now the youngest child of the Trump family has just celebrated his 14th birthday and seems to be enjoying his time at the White House. But how much do we really know about the US president's beloved teen? From father-son bonding sessions on the golf greens to a sneakerhead addiction, this is what America's “first son” is all about.
He's got really tall
Barron stands a little taller than his 180cm (5 foot 11 inches) mother and 190cm (6 foot 3 inches) father. The Twitterverse seemed to delight in this physical attribute, with many users commenting on the 14-year-old's NBA potential.
According to Melania, Barron was a huge baby too, weighing 3.85kg (8.5lbs) when the First Lady gave birth to her son in 2006.
