What to Know
Barron Trump has managed to lead a pretty private life so far, despite the fact that he is the son of president Donald Trump. That privacy is in large part due to the fact that his mom, Melania Trump, has always been quite protective of him, and even though he’ll be turning 20 next month, that still hasn’t changed — not even after he started college. So understandably, after she found out that her son’s privacy was violated, Melania is reportedly furious.
Barron was caught on camera at Mar-a-Lago.
This video that was taken (and posted to Instagram) by model Valeria Sokolova seems to have been recorded at one of the Trumps’ holiday parties at the president’s Florida club, and Barron can be seen sitting with his family, including the president and the first lady, laughing and talking.
It’s a pretty harmless video, but apparently, it’s breaking a very big Mar-a-Lago rule — something that Atlanta Black Star reported has made Melania “furious.”
There have been rules around Barron that the club’s guests must follow.
Considering how tightly Melania guards Barron’s privacy, it’s not surprising to find out that she’s already issued a set of rules involving her son for those who spend time at Mar-a-Lago, according to what an insider told People.
“It’s very understood that guests don’t bother Barron or anyone around him,” one source said.
Another insider contributed, “Melania definitely protects her son against anyone taking videos or shots of him that would put him at a disadvantage or portray him in a bad way. She would put her foot down if necessary but nothing stressful like that has happened.There are guests or other family who come to the club with members during the holidays and at special occasions. If something happened with one of them, they would quietly be told to stop shooting photos or videos. Not threatened.”
Yet another source also denied the rumors that Melania totally flipped out over the Instagram post, telling People, “Melania would go to the ends of the earth to protect Barron from any evil intentions from people, but nothing like this happened during the holidays.”
In general, Barron doesn’t seem to be very outgoing.
Barron has never been much of a partier like the children in some first families have been known to do, but that’s also part of his personality, one of the sources claimed.
“He is quiet and reserved when spotted in public, not outgoing, but totally in control,” they said. “He is more at ease when he’s with his family. He doesn’t smile a lot, He’s just not a social butterfly.”
Well, it can’t have been easy growing up in the spotlight as he has…
