Nothing trumps the legacy of the massive family Donald Trump has built, consisting of his five children, their spouses and his 10 grandchildren. Not even his historic win in the 2024 presidential elections in the United States.
What’s being dubbed a shocking comeback in American political history, Trump’s presidential win in the second non-consecutive term marks his return to the White House and only tech mogul Elon Musk’s allegiance tops the support that his family has shown to him during the electoral campaigns.
Well, that’s one plus side of having a big, beautiful family. And, we bet, that’s another thing Musk, who has fathered 12 children, and Trump are aligned on!
That said, the Trump family is a fascinating blend of business, politics and entertainment.
As Donald Trump prepares to take on the role of the 47th President of the United States, defeating Kamala Harris, his family has certainly captured public attention, showcasing a vibrant array of personalities!
His children — Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka Trump, Eric Trump, (from his first marriage to the late socialite and model Ivana Trump); Tiffany Trump (from his second marriage to actress Marla Maples) and Barron Trump (with his current wife, model, Melania Trump) — lead very public and popular lives. Additionally, Donald Trump is a proud grandfather to 10 grandchildren, with another on the way, as he announced Tiffany’s pregnancy during a speech in October 2024.
With the Trumps in the spotlight once again, let’s take a closer look at the children and grandchildren of multimillionaire Donald Trump in chronological order.
All the children of Donald Trump in order of their age
- Donald John Trump Jr

Donald John Trump Jr.: The eldest son
Born in 1977, Donald John Trump Jr. nicknamed Donald Trump Jr. is the eldest son of Donald Trump and the late Ivana Trump, making him one of three children from their marriage.
Donald Jr. had a rocky relationship with his father growing up and attended the University of Pennsylvania, which is also where Donald Sr. studied. After completing his degree in 2000, he relocated to Aspen, where he led a life imbued with activities like hunting, fishing and camping, often living out of his truck. A year later, he joined his father’s organisation.
Currently, he has taken on a prominent role in his father’s business ventures as well as his political endeavours, serving as the executive vice president of The Trump Organisation. He is a vocal supporter of his father’s Make America Great Again campaign. Notably, over a decade before his father’s re-election in 2024, Trump Jr. faced an arrest for “public intoxication” in downtown New Orleans.
In 2021, Trump Jr. established a lifestyle media brand named Field Ethos. He’s also extremely active on social media and has 7.5 million followers on Instagram and about 11 million on Twitter.
Previously, he was married to model Vanessa Trump, with whom he has five children: Kai (2007), Donald Trump III (2009), Tristan (2011), Spencer (2012) and Chloe (2014). He is currently engaged to Kimberly Guilfoyle, a former Fox News personality.

Ivanka Marie Trump: The eldest of Donald Trump’s daughters
Four years after Don Jr. was born, Donald and Ivana welcomed their daughter, Ivanka Marie Trump. Before her father’s presidency, she was a graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and worked at The Trump Organisation. However, following his first election in 2016, the founder of her eponymous fashion brand took on the position of Advisor to the President.
When her father announced his candidacy for the 2024 election, Ivanka decided to step back from politics to dedicate more time to her family, including her husband, former White House senior advisor Jared Kushner, and their three children: Arabella, Joseph and Theodore. “I am choosing to prioritise my young children and the private life we are creating as a family,” she said in a statement.
Kushner is the CEO of Kushner Companies, a real estate firm based in New Jersey, and also serves as the publisher of the New York Observer. Jared is the son of Charles Kushner, who established Kushner Companies. Ivanka and Jared currently live a quieter life in Miami with their children away from the noise of presidential elections and Trump’s big win.
Eric Frederick Trump: The third-born
Born in 1984, Eric Trump is Donald Trump’s third child in chronological order as well as his youngest with Ivana. While he doesn’t seek the spotlight as much as his older brother, he plays a significant role in the Trump family business. Eric defended his father’s presidential candidacy during a speech at the Republican National Convention. Eric graduated from Georgetown University and like his brother, he joined The Trump Organization in 2007 as an executive vice president.
He is married to Lara Trump, the co-chair of the Republican National Committee, and together they have two children, Luke and Carolina.
Lara also took the stage at the 2024 RNC, where she delivered a heartfelt speech about Trump’s role as a grandparent to her kids with Eric.
Tiffany Ariana Trump: The one kept away from the limelight
Born in 1993, Tiffany Ariana Trump is the fourth child of Donald Trump and his only daughter with actress Marla Maples. She was born in West Palm Beach, Florida, but grew up in California. After her parents’ divorce in 1999, Maples raised Tiffany as a single mother, relocating to Calabasas to shield her from the spotlight.
Tiffany pursued her education at the University of Pennsylvania, following in her father’s footsteps, and later graduated from Georgetown University Law Centre in May 2020. In 2011, she ventured into music with a pop song titled “Like a Bird“. In November 2022, she married businessman Michael Boulos.
Unlike her older half-siblings, Tiffany was not initially involved with the Trump Organisation or her father’s administration. However, she did participate in her father’s campaigns for a second term by delivering speeches at the Republican National Conventions in 2016 and 2020, and she was present with him at the RNC.
Barron William Trump: Donald Trump’s youngest child
The final name in the list of the children of Donald Trump in chronological order is Barron William Trump. Born in 2006 in New York City, he is the youngest son of Trump and the only child he shares with his current wife Melania.
In June 2017, Barron made history as the first son of a president to reside in the White House since John F. Kennedy Jr., as reported by Today. After leaving the White House in 2020, Barron and Melania settled in Palm Beach, Florida, where he attended the prestigious Oxbridge Academy. Following Donald’s federal indictment in June 2023, Melania has been particularly protective of Barron and keeps him away from the limelight. However, during the 2024 presidential election campaign, Barron joined his dad on the campaign trail in July at a rally in Doral, Florida.
Currently in his late teens, Barron had been in the limelight for his unusual 6.9-foot tall frame. He started his first year at New York University in September 2024.
