President Donald Trump’s youngest son, Barron, has been the subject of much curiosity since his father first entered public office. The teenager is currently in his sophomore year at NYU, pursuing business just like his father. While he has yet to make a media debut, reports suggest he’s grown into an extremely likable man who’s totally different from any other member of the Trump family. The latest update regarding Barron is that he’s reportedly moved into the White House to live close to his parents while continuing his studies at the DC Campus. But the internet doesn’t seem convinced enough about this fact.
While Donald Trump recently confirmed that his son is living with him, netizens have pointed out that there’s absolutely no trace of him anywhere near the limelight. For those unfamiliar, during a recent Fox News interview with Laura Ingraham, the President not only gave a gaudy tour of the latest renovations inside the White House but also made a vague comment about Barron’s whereabouts. Answering the host, he’d said “He is. He’s here. He’s right upstairs. Want to see him?”, but kept walking and never let the cameras get a peek of Barron.

Rightly so, the mystery around Barron’s presence has deepened to the point that people have especially noted his absence from many high-profile events held at the White House. For instance, on November 18, Trump was joined by soccer legend Cristiano Ronaldo and Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman for a dinner. Barron, who happens to be a huge fan of the sports star, reportedly met him, but the internet remains devoid of any pictures of the 19-year-old from the evening.
Although it did not stop a very proud father, Donald Trump, from confirming the same as he took to the podium in the evening, in his words, “My son is a big fan of Ronaldo. Barron got to meet him, and I think he respects his father a little bit more now.” Again, the internet has not quite believed a word, since there are absolutely no corroborating images from the event that prove Barron was part of the gala celebration.

For the record, when it comes to his youngest son, President Trump has always said that Barron is ‘tall’ and a ‘good-looking guy’ who has a strong interest in politics. One cannot forget the moment when the 79-year-old father said, “He’s a little on the tall side. I will tell you, he’s a tall one, but he is a good-looking guy. And he’s really been a great student. And he does like politics. It’s sort of funny”.
As a result, his absence from the public eye is only fueling more curiosity about where he might actually be and whether the news of his moving into the White House is true.
In other news, recently, Barron’s half-sibling, Eric Trump, made a very curious description of the former. Well, the American businessman tagged Barron as a nice guy who is incapable of making disrespectful comments to anyone, or, worse, of making a spectacle of himself in front of the camera.
Being the elder brother, Eric cleared the air around Barron’s controversy, where the youngster allegedly told former U.S. President Joe Biden to f— off. He said, “Barron just doesn’t have that in him. He’s a nice guy. He’s probably thinking it. He definitely has it up here. But he’s too courteous, actually, to go out there and say it.”
