As Donald Trump is all set to be sworn in as the 47th US President, marking the beginning of his second term, all eyes are set on Barron Trump, the only teenager among Trump siblings who was hardly 11 years old when his dad was sworn in as the 45th US President in 2017.
Barron Trump is the only son of 78 year old Donald Trump and 54 year old former model Melania Trump.
Barron was born on May 20, 2006. According to People, Donald Trump named his Barron, because he liked the name and could not use it for any of his other sons.

Barron attended the Columbia Grammar and Preparatory School on Manhattan’s Upper West Side. Unlike other presidential kids who attended Sidwell Friends, Barron attended St. Andrew’s Episcopal School in Potomac, Maryland.
A graduate from Oxbridge Academy in West Palm Beach, Florida, Barron is a student of New York University currently.
Barron broke a family tradition by joining New York University. Donald Trump and his children have attended the prestigious universities in Pennsylvania and Washington, D.C., respectively.
Barron joined the New York University’s Stern School of Business in September last year. He graduated from Oxbridge Academy in May.
“He’s a very high aptitude child, but he’s no longer a child. He’s just passed into something beyond child-dom. He’s doing great,” Donald Trump had told the media after confirming that his son would join NYU.
“Barron’s a very good athlete, he’s very tall . . . and he’s a good kid, he’s a good-looking kid, he’s a good student, great student actually, very good student,” the proud dad had told American journalist Megyn Kelly in an interview.
Reportedly, he is over 6 feet and 9 inches and loves playing football, golf and basketball.
Barron spent much of his childhood at the Trump Tower in Manhattan.
Media reports have said that during the presidential campaign Barron played a key role in advising his dad on connecting with the younger generation voters.
