Donald Trump revealed ‘real reason’ behind shocking height of son Barron Trump

The more he tends to stay out of the public eye, the more the public is interested in the personal life of Barron Trump.

The youngest child of the business mogul doesn’t expose his private life and is rarely seen in public. What we know of him is that he’s currently attending a business school in New York.

Barron was born in 2006, the same year when Donald and Melania tied the knot. He grew up in the Trump Tower in Manhattan, where he is reported to have an entire floor for himself. Although he has lived surrounded by luxury, he never had a traditional nanny while growing up. Instead, Melania took all the care of him, and that included preparing him breakfast and lunch every day.

Back in the day when Barron was born, Donald Trump did something unconventional.

Just 20 minutes into the world, the former president alerted the media that he became a father for the fifth time.

As reported by several newspapers, he called MSNBC’s long-running radio show “Imus in the Morning,” hosted by Don Imus, to reveal the great news.

“Everyone’s perfect,” Donald Trump, who was 59 at the time, told Imus.

“I continue to stay young, right? I produce children, I stay young,” while Melania’s website posted that the baby weighted in at 8 1/2 pounds and was 21 inches long.

Being significantly taller than the rest of his siblings, as well as his father, Barron’s height has caught the attention of many and each photo of him leaves people stunned over his appearance.

Photos of Barron were taken at his grandma’s funeral.

Melania’s mother, Amalija Knavs, died at 78 on January 10.

The Former First Lady announced the news with sadness.

“Amalija Knavs was a strong woman who always carried herself with grace, warmth, and dignity,” the former First Lady said.

In the statement she released, Melania further wrote about her late mother that “[Amalija] was entirely devoted to her husband, daughters, grandson, and son-in-law.

“We will miss her beyond measure and continue to honor and love her legacy.”

The news of Amalija’s ill state came to light when Melania was missing from the Christmas family photo. Back then, Donald Trump explained that his wife was absent because she was caring for her mother whose health deteriorated.

Amalija Knavs and her husband, Viktor, became US citizens in 2018 after living in the US on green cards sponsored by their daughter.

Melania’s parents have always been by her and her sister’s side. They have been very supportive and did all in their power to provide a good life for their daughters. Even when they were very young, Amalija and Viktor took Melania and her sister Ines to trips around Europe, including France, Germany, and Italy.

When Trump became the President, Melania gave speech in the White House Rose Garden in which she thanked her parents.

“My parents worked very hard to ensure our family could not only live and prosper in America but also contribute to a nation that allows for people to arrive with a dream and make it a reality,” she said. “I want to take the moment to thank my mother and father for all that they have done for our family. It is because of you that I am standing here today.”

Melania’s parents also played an important role in the life and upbringing of Barron Trump.

“Barron almost certainly speaks Slovenian with… Ines, his aunt, who also lives in New York.” author Bojan Pozar wrote in his book Melania Trump – The Inside Story: The Potential First Lady, released in 2016. “[Melania’s sister] Ines Knavs was the one who took care of all the paperwork at the Slovenia consulate in New York so that Barron could formally acquire Slovenian citizenship.” The same was true for Amalija and Viktor.

At his campaign rally, Trump also took the time to mention his late mother-in-law and thank her for everything she had done for his son and his family.

“I want to thank her incredible, beautiful mother who passed away a few days ago,” he said. “And she’s up there, way up there. She’s looking down and she’s so proud of us,” he told the crowd.

“And I just want to say to Amalija, you are special, one of the most special people I’ve ever known,” he added.

Trump further added, “Great people, great parents to all of us, really. Great parents, but also to Barron. Boy, did she take care of Barron. That’s how he got so tall, he only ate her food.”

Trump then joked about his son’s height, saying it is pity he isn’t interested in basketball, but in soccer.

“I said you’re gonna be a basketball player. He said, ‘Well, I like soccer, Dad, actually.’ I thought… at your height, I like basketball better, but you can’t talk them into everything,” Trump added, saying that Barron was a “special boy.”

Barron is growing up so fast that some believe the photos of him are photoshoped.

“I thought this was Photoshop, what the hell?!” one person said, as reported by Yahoo. “Wasn’t that the little kid fighting to stay awake at Trump’s inauguration? That was…. 7 years ago. Oh.”

Several news outlets have reported that Barron stands at 6 feet 7. However, that is incorrect, according to Barron Trump’s father, Donald.

In fact, Donald revealed that Barron stands at 6 feet 8, as reported by the Mirror.

The most recent photos of Barron taken on the election day stunned the public even further because he seems like he has grown even more.

People were quick to comment on the photo of Barron voting for the first time for his dad.

“One way that it is definitely not 2016 all over again is that Barron Trump is like 7 feet tall now,” one person wrote. 

“Barron Trump may very well be just three normal height humans stacked on top of one another,” another added.

“[Six-foot-nine] Barron Trump, son of Donald Trump, may just get a call from the Washington Wizards one of these days,” shares one, referring to a draft by the NBA team.

“God d*** Barron Trump is like 7 feet tall; that boy gotta get off the stage and start HOOPING.”

Mexico’s president reacts to Trump’s controversial suggestion to rename the Gulf of Mexico

By

-

President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to rename the Gulf of Mexico. It was a decision that did not sit well with the Mexican government.

The president of Mexico, Claudia Sheinbaum, stood firmly behind the statement that Trump can call the body of water whatever he wants but for the American part only.

“He says that he will call it the ‘Gulf of America’ on its continental shelf. For us it is still the Gulf of Mexico and for the entire world it is still the Gulf of Mexico,” Sheinbaum said on Tuesday, January 21, as reported by the Associated Press.

Trump shared the idea about changing the name of the body of water before taking office. He said it felt “appropriate.”

“We’re going to be changing the name of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America — which has a beautiful ring. That covers a lot of territory,” he said on January 7. “The Gulf of America, what a beautiful name.”

He mentioned the name change during his inauguration speech, which triggered laughter at Hillary Clinton. He proceeded with signing the executive order later that day.

As per the White House, the order said “the area formerly known as the Gulf of Mexico has long been an integral asset to our once burgeoning Nation and has remained an indelible part of America.”

It noted, “The Gulf will continue to play a pivotal role in shaping America’s future and the global economy.” Further, it added: “and “In recognition of this flourishing economic resource and its critical importance to our Nation’s economy and its people, I am directing that it officially be renamed the Gulf of America.”

Shared by the United States, Mexico, and Cuba, the Gulf is a vital resource for fishing, oil production, and international trade.

The first time Trump mentioned the idea of the name change, Sheinbaum responded with sarcasm. She proposed to rename North America to “América Mexicana” or “Mexican America.”

The renaming of the Gulf of Mexico would likely require significant diplomatic negotiations, as it involves shared territorial waters and agreements under international law.

Royal rift continues: Prince Harry rejects his dad’s generosity

By

In 2019, Prince Harry filed a lawsuit against News Group Newspapers, the publisher of The Sun and defunct tabloid News of the World. The Duke claimed the tabloids had obtained personal information illegally.

The long-running battle has finally come to an end, with Rupert Murdoch’s NGN offering the duke a public apology and an eight-figure settlement.

NGN issued the apology on their website. It read, “NGN offers a full and unequivocal apology to the Duke of Sussex for the serious intrusion by The Sun between 1996 and 2011 into his private life, including incidents of unlawful activities carried out by private investigators working for The Sun.”

They also admitted they had intruded into the private life of Harry’s late mother, Princess Diana.

“In a monumental victory today, News UK have admitted that The Sun, the flagship title for Rupert Murdoch’s UK media empire, has indeed engaged in illegal practices,” Harry and his co-claimant Tom Watson said in a statement read by their lawyer, David Sherborne, outside the High Court.

“Today the lies are laid bare. Today, the cover-ups are exposed. And today proves that no one stands above the law. The time for accountability has arrived.”

Before the court battle, which ended before it began, certain media outlets reported that King Charles offered Prince Harry to stay at the Palace while in Britain.

The Duke allegedly rejected the offer.

Last year, Prince Harry disputed the Home Office’s decision to cut his security protection while he was in the UK.

Following his departure from royal life, the Royal and VIP Executive Committee (RAVEC) withdrew his automatic police protection. Additionally, his offer to pay for his own security was rejected because British police could not be hired privately.

“It was with great sadness for both of us that my wife and I felt forced to step back from this role and leave the country in 2020,” Harry’s statement, read by his lawyer Shaheed Fatima KC stated, as reported by BBC.

“The UK is my home. The UK is central to the heritage of my children and a place I want them to feel at home as much as where they live at the moment in the US. That cannot happen if it’s not possible to keep them safe when they are on UK soil.”

The Duke added, “I cannot put my wife in danger like that, and, given my experiences in life, I am reluctant to unnecessarily put myself in harm’s way too.”

Royal experts argue that if Harry was indeed offered a stay at the Palace, he should have accepted it. Living inside the palace would have ensured him the security he was fighting for in court.

In 2024, Elon Musk predicted that ‘hundreds of millions’ of people would have his brain chips within 20 years—so be sure to hold him to it

By

-

In 2024, Neuralink announced its first successful medical implants in patients, and the owner behind it, tech genius Elon Musk, predicted the numbed of people to have his chips implanted within the next 20 years would be “hundreds of millions.”

“If all goes well, there will be hundreds of people with Neuralinks within a few years, maybe tens of thousands within 5 years, millions within 10 years,” Musk posted on X.

A year later, we ask if his prediction has started to become a reality.

Musk believes that the need for chip implants comes with the development of AI and the humans’ urge to keep up with it.

In January 2024, neurosurgeons implanted a Neuralink chip into different areas of the brain tissue of patient Noland Arbaugh, a man paralyzed below his shoulders due to a driving accident.

The chip, which was the size of a coin, contained 64 flexible threads, each thinner than a human hair.

During a live-streamed demonstration, Arbaugh played chess and other online games without making a single movement. He explained that the experience felt like using “Force powers” from Star Wars.

About a month later, Arbaugh’s performances declined, but Neuralink restored his capabilities after certain modifications of their algorithm.

Neuralink announced in a blog post that the second patient to receive their chip, “Alex,” is successfully using computer-aided design (CAD) software to design 3D objects and to play video games.

“To reduce the probability of thread retraction in our second participant, we implemented a number of mitigations, including reducing brain motion during the surgery and reducing the gap between the implant and the surface of the brain,” the blog post stated.

“This marks another significant step towards providing a high-performance interface that will enhance the control of digital devices for people with quadriplegia to help restore their autonomy.

“We hope that in time, the Link helps many people create in their areas of interest and expertise, and we’re excited to work with more people to help them reconnect with their passions,” the company stated.

Elon Musk believes the recipients of the chips will outperform professional gamers within two years and will speed up human brains.

“Our slow output rate would diminish the link between humans and computers,” Musk said, and made a comparison with plants. “Let’s say you look at this plant or whatever, and hey, I’d really like to make that plant happy, but it’s not saying a lot.”

Musk’s near-term plans heavily focus on optimizing brain data transmission rates. “The low data rate of humans, especially our slow output rate, would diminish the link between humans and computers,” Musk explained, proposing to increase brain signal speed “by three, maybe six, or more orders of magnitude.”

A Happy Meal and a heart full of sorrow

By

While waiting my order at the local McDonald’s, I couldn’t help but notice the worried expression on the face of a mother who entered the restaurant with her daughter, who didn’t seem to be older than six. Excited, the girl asked her mom if they could have a Happy Meal.

The mom seemed worried, but looking at her daughter, she agreed.

They took a seat next to my table, and I saw the mom splitting the burger in two, giving her daughter the bigger portion. She then took out a small thermos and poured tea into a plastic cup she had brought along.

She paid for the food with a crumpled wad of cash she held tightly in her hand.

As I had my food, I could help by overhear parts of their conversation.

It turned out the two were returning from the hospital when the girl asked for a Happy Meal.

She had never had any, and her mom wanted to grant her the wish.

I didn’t know what condition was the girl suffering from, but I overheard the medical expenses were huge.

Pexels

Wanting to ease their day, I ordered another burger and placed it on their table. “For the girl,” I said and smiled. Both the mom and the daughter thanked me, and it was obvious my gesture meant a lot to them.

That night, I couldn’t stop thinking about them, so the following day, I went to the hospital they mentioned.

There, I learned that the girl was diagnosed with leukemia, and the mother quit her job as a teacher to be able to take care of her full-time.

From that moment on, I helped however I could. Whether it was with groceries, bus tickets, or an occasional Happy Meal from McDonald’s.

The mom wouldn’t accept much, so I found ways to anonymously cover some of the medical expenses.

One day, at McDonald’s, the girl, Lily, approached me and said, “Thanks for helping my mom.”

It was then that I learned my efforts brought them a bit of relief.

Doctor has warning for anyone who notices bubbles in their urine when they go to the toilet

By

Our bodies often offer subtle signs that something isn’t right with our health, we just have to learn to listen and not ignore the cues, such as unusual pain, persistent discomfort, or any changes in bodily function, including bubbles in the urine.

Dr Shirley Koeh, a medical practitioner, shared a video in which she explains what it means when someone notices bubbles in their urine.

First thing first, she explains that it is important to notice if the presence of the bubbles is just a one time things, which would mean the person needs to hydrate, or the bubbles appeared more than once.

According to her, the presence of bubbles in the urine may indicate the presence of protein in the urine, and the reasons for this can be various.

Instagram/@drshirleykoeh

“If you have done the above,” referring to trying to stay hydrated, “and yet the bubbles don’t go away, then we need to consider the following,” she explained, and added there are two types of tests that can provide answers.

The most accurate test is the one done in the lab. An analysis of a urine sample can determine if there is a presence of “any microalbumin, which is the small protein that will exist in your urine.”

The second test is “just by a simple urine dipstick test.”

If the tests indicate the presence of protein, it can mean the person suffers from hypertension, diabetes, chronic infections (such as HPV), autoimmune disease, or kidney disease secondary to drug intake, caused by ‘chronic drug and alcohol misuse’ which can lead to severe kidney damage or even failure.

Vikas Desai, MD, a urologist at Delnor Hospital, says bubbles in the urine can also indicate blood cancer.

At pregnant women, foamy urine may indicate a serious condition known as preeclampsia. These individuals need to see a doctor as soon as possible.

Barron Trump’s stylist explains what he is really like

By

Barron Trump, the youngest son of President Donald Trump, has lived a life out of the spotlight. The public has been eager to learn more about his private life, but what we know so far is that he attends the New Your University. He is pursuing a degree in economics and finances at the Stern School of Business. Recently, however, Barron Trump’s stylist spoke of the young man and revealed what he is really like.

Since his father was sworn in as a president of the United States for the second time, Barron’s parents moved to the 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue property. Barron, however, won’t be joining them, since he’s studying in New York.

He would be staying at the Trump Tower, and his mother would be visiting, as it was reported that the first lady plans to split her time between Washington DC, New York, and Florida.

“Whether or not others think he is capable of being on his own, Melania feels it’s better to be around him as much as possible,” source close to the couple shared with People. “I see that continuing.”

One thing about Barron that everyone is talking about is his height. Donald Trump revealed his youngest son is 6 ft 8.

On the day of his dad’s inauguration, Barron was spotted shaking hands with Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. As per a lip reader, he greeted Biden, saying, “G’day to you sir” before turning to Harris with the words, “Ma’am, good day.”

As expected, the video of the interaction has gone viral and has been seen over half a million times.

The public praised the young Trump for his manners, with many agreeing Melania did an awesome job raising him right.

Now, Barron Trump’s stylist, Nathan Pearce, the chief executive officer at luxury styling service Bespoke Pearce, spoke of young Trump.

Speaking to Women’s Wear Daily, Pearce said, “He’s this super-bright kid. He’s well beyond his years in terms of experience, knowledge, history. He’s just very fascinating to talk to.

“You know what is another word I would say [about him]? Hospitable. He is down-to-earth, nice as can be and hospitable,” Pearce continued, recalling how Barron shook his hand when they first met and offered to show him around the Florida estate.

“I’ve thoroughly enjoyed getting to know him over the last one or two years,” Pearce explained.

“I recognize that Barron Trump could be choosing from tailors all over the world, and he chose me and Pearce Bespoke. I’m super-grateful and super-proud of that,” Pearce added.

“He’s hilarious. But as I said, he’s super-sharp. You put him in a room with star businessmen and he will hold his own. He can talk to them all day because he’s witty, smart and has a dry sense of humor,” the stylist concluded.

Melania Trump made harsh comment about how the Obamas left the White House before Trump moved in the first time round

By
Monica Pop
-

In an interview with Fox & Friends, Melania Trump, whose husband sworn in as a president of the United States for the second time on January 20, spoke about being a First Lady again. Asked if there would be any differences in how she and Donald moved into the White House this time, compared to their move after the administration of the Obamas, she didn’t hold back.

Among the rest, Melania said, “The difference is I know where I will be going. I know the rooms where we will be living. I know the process.

“The first time was challenging, we didn’t have much of the information, the information was upheld (withheld) for us from previous administration.”

However, this wasn’t everything Melania Trump had to say about the Obamas.

In her book titles Melania, the Slovenian-born former model said the Obamas denied the family ‘crucial’ early access to the residence. This resulted in delays with the renovations.

Moreover, “protocols and politics” interrupted the smooth transition she hoped for.

“Unfortunately my plans to begin preparing the residence before the inauguration were disrupted by protocols and politics,” she wrote in her bestseller book.

“Sadly our team did not receive the access we had requested to visit the White House residence in December.”

At the time, Melania wanted to provide suitable conditions for her son, Barron.

Her son was attending Columbia Grammar & Preparatory School in New York City. She and Barron only moved to the White House after the end of the school year.

“While the logistics of relocating can be challenging, my priority was to create a sense of stability and familiarity for Barron during this transition.

“I was dedicated to ensuring that he had a smooth and positive experience,” she wrote.

Wikipedia

Melania recalled that she started the renovations after they moved to the White House, as the Obamas broke a ‘customary’ tradition.

“Those three weeks would have been crucial for taking measurements, gathering plans, and starting preparations.”

Further, she opened up about the condition of the 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue residence when Donald took office.

“The existing style was outdated or not to my taste,” Melania wrote.

“Barron’s room was a priority. He was the first young boy to live in the White House since John Kennedy Jr.” However, the children’s bedrooms had been decorated for girls for sixty years. The mom of one wanted to create a place that would suit her son’s needs.

Meanwhile, former First Lady Michelle Obama did not join her husband at Trump’s swearing-in ceremony.
