Barron Trump, the 6-foot-7 NYU student and youngest son of former President Donald Trump and Melania Trump, has been the subject of more rumors about his personal life than any of his siblings.
Known for maintaining a low profile, Barron often avoids high-profile events and keeps quiet in the media. However, the rumor mill has always been active, constantly churning out new stories about Barron’s life.
The Latest on Barron’s Romance
Recently, News Nation reported a fresh story about Barron’s personal life. According to an anonymous “friend on campus” at NYU, where Barron recently completed his freshman year, the young Trump reportedly has a “really nice girlfriend” and spends a lot of time with her.
The source didn’t provide further details about the relationship but did share some insight into Barron’s personality.
The friend described Barron as someone who is “much more like his mom, Melania”, keeping his head down and focusing on his life without seeking attention or trying to be the center of campus life.
While there’s no new information yet on the identity of Barron’s girlfriend, rumors about his personal life continue to grow. Back in February, Mari Arana, a conservative influencer and fellow NYU student, addressed rumors about a potential relationship with Barron.
She commented on Daily Mail’s mention of her name as a possible match, noting that although they hadn’t met, she was “definitely not against it!”
A First Relationship?
Barron’s love life has piqued public curiosity, especially considering his relatively private nature. In October 2024, during an appearance on the PBD Podcast, President Trump spoke about his son’s social life, describing Barron as “good-looking” but revealing that he hadn’t had a girlfriend yet.
Trump also shared that Barron is someone who doesn’t mind being alone but gets along well with others. This comment sparked fresh speculation about Barron’s romantic interests, with many wondering if his relationship with this rumored girlfriend is his first.
The Princess Leonor Rumor
As rumors about Barron’s romance spread, one particularly wild speculation captured the public’s attention: the possibility of Barron dating Princess Leonor of Spain.
The 19-year-old royal had recently completed a phase of military training and arrived in New York, fueling the fantasy that she and Barron might be an item. This rumor quickly escalated after a deepfake video featuring Barron and Princess Leonor was shared online.
The video, which depicted the two in a fictional “Grand Royal Wedding,” went viral, garnering hundreds of thousands of views. While it was clear the video was fake, the artificial intelligence-generated clip led some to wonder whether the rumors were based on truth.
However, this was a false rumor, and no evidence supports the idea of a romantic connection between Barron and Princess Leonor.
