Is Barron Trump the president’s ‘Mini-Me’? 5 ways Donald and Melania Trump’s only son is unlike any White House resident before
The first male child of a president to live at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue since John F Kennedy’s baby son JFK Jr, 14-year-old Barron was already used to 5-star service inside a tourist attraction at Trump Tower – are we watching an American leader’s ‘Mini-Me’ grow up before our very eyes?
A blended family
With two divorces under his belt, Donald Trump is the president with the most ex-wives (Ronald Reagan was divorced once). With his older siblings Ivanka, Donald Jnr, and Eric from Trump’s marriage to Ivana Trump, and Tiffany from his second marriage to Marla Maples, 14-year-old Barron is the only one living at the White House, but his father opts to put his elder children in the spotlight instead.
A younger version of the president
First lady Melania Trump previously said she gave Barron his “little Donald” nickname based on his personality. Recent images show he has shot past his father’s 6-foot 3-inch stature (1.9-metre), making him resemble the commander-in-chief now more than ever.

He’s the first preteen boy old enough to know his father holds the highest office since William Howard Taft’s son Charles Taft moved in at 11 years old after the 1908 election.
