Barron Trump has slowly become an adult before our eyes.
The 19-year-old son of Donald and Melania Trump enrolled at Stern Business School at New York University last fall, with one report claiming he’s pretty popular with the ladies.
At the same time, not much is known about his private life, and it’s unclear whether or not he’s had a girlfriend.
Some months ago, one of Barron’s old classmates claimed to have been his first girlfriend, and recently, another woman named Maria was branded a potential “future Mrs Barron Trump.” Now, she has come forward and revealed the truth about her rumored link to Barron.
Barron has been studying at Stern Business School at New York University since last year. While not much is known about his life there, last fall, several students gave their verdict about the president’s son.
The British newspaper Daily Mail spoke to individuals who attend New York University. Naturally, many “regular” people attend the school, and it appears they have mixed emotions about Donald Trump’s son.
One student stated: “My mom is going to want me to marry him.”
With Secret Service agents following Barron around campus at all times, another student stated they felt “really bad for him” as he “did not choose this life.”
A third student said: “His dad is his dad and he is own person so I’m not going to judge,” adding that she would definitely consider a friendship. “Of course, who wouldn’t want to be friends with a Trump?”
However, not everyone is thrilled that the president’s son will study at NYU. One student stated she would “absolutely not” be friends with Barron.
“It speaks to the privilege that a lot of the NYU kids have. I’m only here because of financial aid,” the student in question told the Daily Mail.
Barron Trump branded “ladies man” at NYU
According to a People Magazine source, the 19-year-old has been “popular with the ladies” since starting classes in September.
“He’s at Stern so he’s studying business in some way. He’s a ladies man for sure. He’s really popular with the ladies,” the source said.
“He’s tall and handsome. A lot of people seem to think he’s pretty attractive — yes, even liberal people like him.”
While Barron seems to enjoy studying in his home city of New York, the fact that he is surrounded by Secret Service agents could potentially make it difficult for him to make friends organically.
TMZ reported that Barron has invited people to play video games online in an effort to get over this particular hurdle.
On top of that, Barron also has a clever trick to ensure he appears approachable, with it said that he carries a black backpack to school.
Although it’s necessary to keep pens, notebooks, and computers safe, there’s rumored to be another reason behind it.
On TikTok, one user claimed that there is a specific reason Barron carries the $88 backpack wherever he goes.
“As Trump’s son, and the future heir, Barron is worth hundreds of millions of dollars, but he always carries an inexpensive black school bag.
Barron lived a life of luxury from childhood. He was raised by Melania, and had a life of ease and plenty since he was a child;” the user wrote, per Express.
“An ordinary student”
“However, no one would believe that under Trump’s guidance, Barron is very thrifty in private. Since he entered college, he has been carrying an $88 black school bag, which makes Barron look more like an ordinary student.
“It enables him to keep a low profile, and be more approachable in public, and allows him to participate in various activities more comfortably.
In addition, since Trump became President, he has been opposed to extravagance and waste and has even donated his own money to charity at times.”
The user on TikTok concluded: “In order to follow in Trump’s footsteps, Barron has always kept a low profile. Even at the age of 19, he has never bought luxury goods.
To some extent, this can also better shape Barron’s positive image, prepare him for being the heir in the future, and play a positive role in the overall image of the Trump family.”
Barron’s life became something of a mystery after his parents’ White House exit in 2021. He, Donald, and Melania moved to Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, where the youngster attended the private Oxbridge Academy High School.
While practically no reports reached the public regarding his life there, rumors suggesting he had a girlfriend did spread.
Barron may not have participated in many school activities, a friend disclosed that he got his first shot at love while living in Florida.
Also, the son of the soon-to-be-inaugurated president has been rumored to be dating a model, although nothing has been confirmed.
Former classmate of Barron Trump says she was his ‘girlfriend’
Whether Barron has ever had a girlfriend or not isn’t public knowledge, and his father recently pondered the prospect himself.
During an appearance on the PBD Podcast, Trump stated that Barron has never had a girlfriend to his knowledge.
He also said that his son is a social guy who “doesn’t mind being alone, but he gets along with people,”
“I’m not sure he’s there yet,” Donald responded to the question about Barron possibly having had a girlfriend. “I don’t think he’s had a girlfriend yet.”
Before Barron moved to the White House, he attended Columbia Grammar and Preparatory School in New York. And not long ago, one girl claimed she and Barron had a relationship.
Through her TikTok account @Maddatitude, a girl named Maddie posted a video of her connection to Barron, going on to disclose the real reason they broke up.
As reported by the Economic Times, Maddie went to school with Barron at Columbia Grammar and Preparatory School in New York and was his first girlfriend.
When Donald Trump won the election, Barron invited his entire class to the White House for a private tour, but we will get to exactly how that tour went in a moment.
Maddie shared a picture of a younger version of herself standing next to Barron in the class photograph on her TikTok account.
She also shared photos from their visit to the White House, where she posed next to Donald and Melania Trump in the Oval Office.
“For those asking, I went to school with Barron Trump, and he was my first BF,” she said. “When Trump was elected he brought the entire class to the White House. We gotta save my bae!”
Woman who was branded “future Mrs Barron Trump” speaks out
In another video, Maddie shared a picture of herself taking a selfie with Donald at her and Barron’s fifth-grade graduation. So why did Maddie and Barron Trump break up?
According to the TikToker, being long-distance became an issue, and when Barron transferred to his new school, the relationship ended.
However, she said she didn’t hold anything against Trump’s youngest son, saying he was “the best” and “the nicest.”
Since Barron’s move to Florida, where he went to high school, others have been rumored to have had a romantic relationship with the future president’s youngest son.
Recently, model Klara Jones, two years older than Barron, was said to be dating him. According to Elle, the two have been seen with each other at events in recent months, fueling dating rumors further. However, nothing has been confirmed.
Gossip surrounding celebrity relationships has always been a big deal, and for Barron, it is no different.
The Daily Mail pointed out that the 21-year-old influencer Maria Arana, a Mexican-American NYU student who grew up in Miami, could be a “future Mrs Barron Trump.”
As Barron never does interviews or comments on his life, it’s tricky to know what is true. However, Maria Arana decided to set the table straight.
Speaking with Vanity Fair, Arana, who is studying child psychology at NYU’s Gallatin School of Individualized Study, said: “I just thought it was very random. But it’s not like I was against it.”
Eric Trump gave dating advice to Barron Trump
The 21-year-old explained that she had never met Barron. However, she has spotted the procession of vehicles that have taken him to school.
Trump’s youngest son benefits from the security of the Secret Service, which takes him to and from school and escorts him around the place while he’s there.
“My advice to Barron is you are the most watched person, probably the most watched bachelor in the world right now,” his brother, Eric Trump, said last year, adding: “Just be careful. There are a lot of eyes on you.”
Only a few pictures have been taken of Barron when he’s not around his father in public. Some weeks ago, The New York Post managed to spot him, and it appeared that he had certainly upgraded his jewelry collection.
According to the New York Post, Barron was spotted arriving at Trump Tower wearing a Rolex—and not just any model.
The newspaper claimed Barron wore a gold Daytona model of the luxurious watch brand, which can cost about $50,000. Barron celebrated his 19th birthday in March, but it is unknown if he received the gold watch as a present.
