Barron Trump is in LOVE! Rumors swirl that president's son has a new girlfriend
The youngest son of Donald Trump and Melania Trump, 19, who recently completed his freshman year at New York University, is said to be spending lots of time with his new love interest.
At the time of writing, however, there have been no whisperings about the identity of Barron's mystery woman.
'Barron has a really nice girlfriend and hangs out with her a lot,' an insider close to Barron told NewsNation last month.
Additional insiders added that despite being under the watchful eyes of the Secret Service, Barron has been able to date freely.
'He can have a girlfriend as the Secret Service guys are well-versed on how to handle this,' a political source added to People.
'Anyone who says being under Secret Service protection would keep him from dating is way off.'
Barron's reported girlfriend is thought to be a first for the US president's son.
Daily Mail has contacted a representative for Barron for comment.
In October 2024, Trump divulged a rare bit of very personal information about his son Barron's dating life.
Trump, who routinely recites just a few anodyne facts when asked about his son, fielded the question in an appearance on the PBD podcast with interviewer Patrick Bet-David.
'Is he good with the ladies in school at NYU? Is he there yet?' asked the interviewer.
'No, I'm not sure he's – I don't think he's had a girlfriend yet,' Trump said at the time.
'I don't think so. Every once in a while…' he said, before ending the thought in rapid-fire conversation.
'He's a good-looking guy,' Trump added about his towering 6-foot-9 son.
Last month, it was reported that Barron is sitting on a fortune of up to $40 million, largely thanks to a family-linked cryptocurrency firm called World Liberty Financial.
The venture, co-founded by Trump and his three adult sons, has quickly exploded in value, selling at least $550 million of tokens.
After the first $30 million in sales, the money flowed directly from investors and into the Trump family members' bank accounts.
Barron is reportedly one of the biggest beneficiaries of that cashflow, with the executive title 'Web3 ambassador,' alongside his half-brothers Don Jr. and Eric.
Each of Trump's sons is believed to hold a 7.5 percent stake in the company. There are some disclosure and partial interest sales that could complicate the overall take-home pay from the venture.
But at just 19 years old, he appears to have earned far more than his older siblings did at the same age — thanks to a digital gold rush that's become the centerpiece of the Trump family's modern empire.
Barron, who reportedly introduced his father to the concept of digital wallets, has been credited by Trump as the family's crypto brain.
'Barron's a young guy, but he knows it — he talks about his wallet,' Trump said in a previous interview.
'He's got four wallets or something, and I'm saying, 'What is a wallet?''
President Trump is also making a healthy sum, too.
A newly released 234-page financial disclosure revealed the President raked in more than $57 million last year from cryptocurrency ventures.
Trump himself owns a 52.5 percent stake in the company, per his disclosure.
He also made millions off retail offerings, like gold-plated shoes, high-end watches, collectible coffee table books, and electric guitars.
Donald welcomed Barron with his third wife, Melania Trump, while he was in the midst of running his real estate empire and already a huge media star, which meant Barron was propelled into the spotlight from a young age.

Report: UFC confirms plans for event at White House in 2026
July 4 - UFC plans to take its show to the White House when the United States puts on its 250th birthday celebration in 2026. The UFC confirmed to The Athletic on Friday that plans are underway to host a slate of fights on the White House grounds in Washington D.C., next year, with an expected summer date not specified. The confirmation comes a day after President Donald Trump shared those intentions to an Iowa crowd. "We're going to have a UFC fight, think of this, on the grounds of the White House," Trump said. "We have a lot of land there. ... We're going to have a UFC fight, championship fight, full fight." A friend of UFC president Dana White, Trump has regularly attended fights over the years, including taking in UFC 309 just days after being elected in November. He also attended fights in April and June. After Trump made his comments to Iowa supporters, White reposted a video of the president's remarks on Instagram. He added the caption: "This will be EPIC!!" No further details about the 2026 fights, including how far along plans have become, were shared. Should it come to fruition, it would become the first professional sporting event ever contested on White House grounds. --Field Level Media

Trump has ‘good conversation' with Zelenskyy after heavy bombardment of Ukraine by Russia
Donald Trump spoke with Ukraine's president, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, on Friday as the US president appears increasingly disheartened over his chances of fulfilling a campaign pledge to end the war between Russia and Ukraine. The call with Zelenskyy comes as Washington has halted its latest shipment of military aid to Ukraine including Patriot air defense missiles and other crucial munitions meant to support the country's defenses, and hours after Russia launched a devastating air attack on Kyiv using a record number of drones and ballistic missiles. Zelenskyy called the conversation 'important and useful' and said in a post said that he and Trump had discussed Ukraine's air defense capabilities, joint defense production and 'mutual purchases and investments', all potentially avenues for Ukraine to restart aid from the United States by providing incentives for the Trump administration to rush crucial munitions to Kyiv. He said that the two sides had also agreed to 'increase aerial protection', a particular focus for Kyiv as Russia has increased bombardments of Ukrainian cities despite outrage from Trump and other world leaders. Yet it was not immediately clear if Zelenskyy had achieved any concrete progress with Trump and in his statement he did not mention the halt of aid shipments from the US or announce their resumption. Axios reported that a source described the call as a 'good conversation'. Trump said he was 'very disappointed' after a telephone call with Vladimir Putin on Thursday. A Putin aide told reporters that the Russian president was not willing to make concessions on what the Kremlin has called the 'root causes' of the war with Ukraine, a list of grievances that includes Nato expansion and Ukraine's desire to join western economic and security blocs. 'I'm very disappointed with the conversation I had today with President Putin, because I don't think he's there,' Trump told reporters after holding a rally in Iowa on Thursday evening. 'I don't think he's there, and I'm very disappointed. I'm just saying, I don't think he's looking to stop, and that's too bad.' The US has said that it halted the shipments, some of which were already in Poland, due to a review of US military stockpiles that suggested that the country is running low on munitions for its own troops. Germany has said that it is in 'intensive talks' to buy the Patriot missiles for Ukraine, although it's unclear whether those stocks would be available immediately. 'There are various ways to fill this Patriot gap,' a German government spokesperson told a news conference in Berlin on Friday. One option being considered was for the German government to buy the Patriot missile batteries in the United States and then send them to Ukraine. Sign up to This Week in Trumpland A deep dive into the policies, controversies and oddities surrounding the Trump administration after newsletter promotion 'I can confirm that intensive discussions are indeed being held on this matter,' the spokesperson said. The shortage of Patriot missiles was further highlighted by the record bombardment of Ukraine in which Russia sent more than 550 drones and ballistic missiles at major cities in what Zelenskyy described as a 'deliberate act of terror'. The strike immediately followed the call between Putin and Trump, Zelenskyy said, and was a 'clear interpretation of how Moscow interprets diplomacy'.

Food truck companies face backlash for catering ‘Alligator Alcatraz'
Several food truck companies have been hit with major backlash online after they were filmed entering Florida's 'Alligator Alcatraz' detention center. The four companies issued statements after customers threatened to boycott them for doing catering business at the controversial prison in the Everglades. President Donald Trump toured the migrant detention facility earlier this week, which was built in just eight days on a disused air strip as he looks to ramp up deportations. A TikToker filmed trucks belonging to Kona Ice, Churro Mania, Elote Lovers and entering the hastily-constructed facility on July 1, according to the social media post. 'Boycott Kona Ice, Churro Mania, Elote Lovers & the user, Osozalez, posted. 'They love our food but hate out [sic] people.' The TikTok post has received more than 7.5 million views since it was shared earlier this week. The food trucks were contracted to cater for the construction crews building the detention center, according to The Miami Herald. O ther outlets reported the vans were hired for a catering event at the facility. A number of responses to the TikTok post – which received nearly 30,000 comments – said that they would be avoiding the companies in the future. 'Welp, my kids are NEVER getting Kona ice ever again,' one mother wrote. 'The audacity Kona Ice has to show up in my local charter school events that is mostly Hispanic/Latino population is insane. Never again,' another person said. 'Are they seriously celebrating with food from the very people they are locking up there?!' someone else added. 'Boycott them ALL! They can't get my money EVER again!' another said. Churromania, a chain that has more than 120 locations across the U.S. and South America, said it was 'not an event we support' in a statement on social media. 'We have no political agenda, and never have. Still, we take full responsibility for how this looked,' the company said. Ms. Cheezious, a Miami food truck company that serves grilled cheese, said they were approached by a 'disaster response company' to provide meals for 'active service members' stationed at the facility. 'Contrary to misleading online narratives, our presence was not part of any celebration or grand opening, and we are not engaged in ongoing services there,' read a statement on Instagram. Elote Lovers, a Miami-based street food business, issued a lengthy statement on Instagram. 'We did not attend with the intention of supporting this place or what it represents,' the statement said in part. 'We do not support, condone, or align ourselves with any form of oppression, abuse, or injustice. We never have and never will.' The business, which said it was founded by an immigrant family, added that they would reassess how they accept and review bookings in the future to 'ensure our values are respected wherever we go.' Shaved ice company Kona Ice said its trucks are independently owned and operated by franchisees. 'The event was booked through an unknown agency, and the franchisee was unaware of the facility's nature or its association with politically sensitive issues,' Kona Ice's statement read in part. 'Our brand exists to bring a moment of happiness to communities through our shaved ice experience – and we recognize the importance of ensuring that mission is never misinterpreted,' the statement added. The first inmates started arriving at the detention center on Thursday, which is expected to cost $450 million a year to run.
