Donald Trump has opened up about his youngest son Barron, who recently came into the spotlight for missing the former President’s hush money trial along with his mother, Melania. Last month, Trump became the first former or current U.S. President to be convicted of criminal charges. On Monday, the 71-year-old discussed his only child with Melania, stating that his son is “super tall.”
In an interview with social media star Logan Paul for his YouTube channel, IMPAULSIVE, the potential GOP presidential nominee, who is 6’1″, expressed a touch of jealousy over his son’s towering 6’9″ height. Trump mentioned that he doesn’t like being photographed with Barron, who is now 18.
“He’s a big boy. Six foot 9. I couldn’t get him to play basketball. I play soccer; he’s a good athlete,” Trump said during the wide-ranging conversation with Logan Paul. “I say, Barron, I don’t want to take a picture next to you,” he added, citing his son’s height.
Both Melania and Trump were last seen together at Barron’s high school graduation at the Oxbridge Academy in West Palm Beach, Florida, on May 17, to support him.
