6-foot-7 Barron Trump towers over mom Melania in rare appearance with The Donald
Donald Trump’s 6-foot-7 son Barron towered over his mother, Melania, as the pair made a rare appearance alongside the once-again presidential candidate for Easter brunch at Mar-a-Lago on Sunday.
Barron, 18, and his 53-year-old mom have been noticeably absent from former President Trump’s campaign trail but appeared at his Palm Beach, Fla., estate in their Sunday best for the holiday festivities.
Photos show Barron dwarfing his 5-foot-11 ex-model mother, who stunned in a long white Alaïa dress and pale pink stilettos.
Barron sported a festive yellow tie, which matched a special Easter version of the iconic “Make America Great Again” trucker hat worn by his father, who has said he is 6 feet 3, in a video posted to X.
“When Grandpa wears the Easter MAGA,” wrote Lara Trump, the former president’s daughter-in-law and co-chair of the Republican Party, in an X post that included a video of The Donald embracing grandchildren Eric Jr., 6, and Carolina, 4.
The video, set to a version of “My Girl” by the Temptations, appears to have been taken at Mar-a-Lago and features the former president ditching his standard suit and red tie for a relaxed white polo with his name emblazoned over his left pocket.
In a separate video of the golf club’s Sunday brunch, Barron and Melania appeared engaged in conversations at a long table as Donald stood nearby speaking to ex-presidential candidate and North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum.

The family’s appearance came shortly after Trump posted a message of vicious Easter wishes to those in the Justice Department prosecuting and overseeing his four ongoing criminal cases.
“HAPPY EASTER TO ALL, INCLUDING CROOKED AND CORRUPT PROSECUTORS AND JUDGES THAT ARE DOING EVERYTHING POSSIBLE TO INTERFERE WITH THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION OF 2024, AND PUT ME IN PRISON, INCLUDING THOSE MANY PEOPLE THAT I COMPLETELY & TOTALLY DESPISE BECAUSE THEY WANT TO DESTROY AMERICA, A NOW FAILING NATION, LIKE ‘DERANGED’ JACK SMITH, WHO IS EVIL AND ‘SICK,’ MRS. FANI ‘FAUNI’ WADE … AND LAZY ON VIOLENT CRIME ALVIN BRAGG …,” he wrote in a post to Truth Social.
“HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE,” Trump added.
The former first family was last publicly seen together at funeral services for Melania’s mother, Amalija Knavs, in January.
