Kai Trump admits how she really feels about being the president's granddaughter

Daily Mail​a day ago
Kai Trump, the daughter of Donald Trump Jr. and the granddaughter of President Donald Trump, provided some insight into the life of a relative of the most powerful person in the world.
Kai, an influencer and prominent junior golfer, recently appeared on 'Fox & Friends' and spoke about the 'special bond' that she shares with her grandfather.
In particular, Kai spoke about how he pushed her to be a better golfer. It's paid off, as she's now set to play the sport at the University of Miami in Florida.
'He taught me to just keep on working at it, and, honestly, I've gotten a lot better in past years with golf, but, he really just [taught me to keep] trying to keep on fighting and keep on practicing and whatnot,' she told the program.
'And I love playing golf… it's something that we share, a special bond together.'
Kai has yet to even begin playing the sport in college, but she's already signed NIL deals with brands before she tees off. She promoted the latest deal she inked, with Accelerator Energy Drink, on the show.
Still, the high school student has spoken about how difficult it is to have such famous relatives.
'I mean, it's a lot to handle sometimes with the public eye and also being a high school student and just like a normal kid,' she said.
'But honestly I wouldn't trade it for anything. I'm very lucky and grateful for the opportunity I have to meet all these people and meet world leaders.
'I'm very thankful and just lucky to have this opportunity.'
As for why she chose Miami, Kai said she knew that the Hurricanes were the team for her after a tour with her mother.
'Well, I decided I went to visit August before my junior year,' Kai explained. 'I visited a lot of colleges with my mom. When I went there I was like right, this is the one. This is the place I want to be.
'Once I went there I had a feeling inside so I knew it was the place for me. But I would say for all those athletes that are visiting schools, talking to colleges, just see where you want to develop to be the best player and I think it's important to like the coach.
'Mine will develop me to be the best player and best person I can be. That is important for my decision at Miami. For those kids who are going and checking out colleges, to see where you want to be and see which people you want to surround yourself around.'
Recently, Kai competed in a junior tournament alongside Charlie Woods in Florida
Recently, Kai competed in a junior golf tournament alongside Tiger Woods' son, Charlie. Tiger Woods and Kai's mother, Vanessa Trump, are currently dating.
In the 41st edition of the Nicklaus Junior Championship in late June, Charlie finished even-par for the tournament with a final round 69 (2-under) to place sixth in a field of 122 boys golfers.
Meanwhile, Kai struggled to a final round score of a 3-over 74, putting her 17-over for the tournament and tied for 21st out of 32 golfers.
Tiger and Vanessa went public with their relationship earlier this year, 10 days after DailyMail.com exclusively broke the news that the golf icon was dating Donald Trump Jr.'s ex-wife.
Alongside two pictures of the loved-up couple, Woods wrote: 'Love is in the air and life is better with you by my side! We look forward to our journey through life together.
'At this time we would appreciate privacy for all those close to our hearts.'
The couple have the blessing of the President, with Trump himself saying he was happy when he learned that they had become an item.
'He told me about it, and I said, 'Tiger, that's good, that's good. I'm very, happy for both.' But they just let them both be happy. Let them both be happy. They're both great,' Trump said.

Famous 90s rock band sues its own front man

Jane's Addiction members Dave Navarro, Eric Avery, and Stephen Perkins are suing frontman Perry Farrell for at least $10 million. The lawsuit stems from an onstage brawl in Boston in 2024, which led to the cancellation of their tour and halted plans for a new album. Guitarist Dave Navarro is also separately suing Farrell for assault and battery over the incident, where Farrell appeared to shove and swing at him. Farrell's lawyers have dismissed the lawsuit as baseless and a transparent attempt to control the narrative, alleging the band previously made defamatory statements about his mental health. The brawl, caught on camera, occurred during a performance of Ocean Size, with Farrell's wife later attributing his actions to frustration over stage volume and audience complaints.

BREAKING NEWS Caitlin Clark sparks major All-Star fears as her status for Fever's clash against Liberty is officially revealed

Caitlin Clark 's status for the WNBA All-Star Game has been thrown into doubt as the Fever star is set to miss yet another game through injury. The reigning Rookie of the Year is set to miss her 10th game of the season on Wednesday with a right groin injury, the team announced. Clark had already missed time with a groin injury this season and aggravated in her team's win over the Connecticut Sun on Tuesday. The injury will keep her out of Indiana 's trip to the Liberty on Wednesday, though it could also rule her out of the WNBA All-Star Game on Saturday. Clark is meant to captain her own team after winning the All-Star fan vote, and she is also scheduled to appear in the three-point content. The game is also set to take place at the Fever's home arena, Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
