Donald Trump‘s youngest son is a full-blown adult. Barron Trump made a rare public appearance for an Easter event at Mar-a-Lago with mom Melania Trump. The youngest member of the Trump family is known to be less comfortable in the spotlight than the rest of his famous family. Up until now, his privacy has been respected as a minor child. Weeks ago, he turned 18 and is now stepping out for the first time as an adult.
Barron Accompanied His Mom for an Easter Event at Mar-a-Lago
Barron Trump struck a very Donald-esque pose as he made his appearance with mom, Melania Trump, for Easter Brunch at Mar-a-Lago. He smiled at the camera and gave a thumbs-up, displaying a grin that closely matched that of the former President.
Standing at 6’7,” Barron is almost a head taller than his former model mom, who is 5’11” and was wearing heels at the celebration.
Melania Is Still Very Hands-On in Her Son’s Life
Melania Trump has long been known for being a doting mom, dedicating the majority of her focus to her son. While Barron Trump is officially an adult, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t still need his mom’s guidance.
Last month, a source told PEOPLE the former first lady considers her “main job” to be raising her son. That’s something that isn’t changing any time soon, they speculate.
“I think it’s possible that she will follow him wherever he goes to school. Barron is shy and reserved, and she has been a good mother to him all of these years.”

With another presidential campaign ahead of them, many people have questioned how involved the larger Trump family will be in the action. Everyone was all in on the first run, but it seems the approach has changed this time around. With Melania focused on Barron’s college choices and next steps, it doesn’t seem the White House is at the forefront of her mind.
