And while many might now know how Barron got to be so tall, Donald explains that it came from his mother-in-law’s cooking. Amalia Knavs, Melania’s mother, was known to cook regularly for the family, which the 47th President of the United States believes contributed to Barron’s growth spurt.

(Amalia died a year ago at 78 in January 2024, the same age DT is now - he credited her with this in November 2024 after she had died, imo possibly not naturally).

“That’s how he got so tall; he only ate her food,” he said. “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.'”

A 2019 book by Michael Wolff contained an anecdote about Trump being jealous of his son at 12 for already being so tall.

(He was jealous bc they had started doping him, imo)

The earliest reports of his height being 6-foot-7 may have come from the New York Post all the way back in 2021. It’s an uncommon height for any age, but it must be said, it’s really tall for 15.

When asked about Barron’s bout with COVID-19 in 2020, Trump reportedly said, “My Barron. My tall Barron. He’s very tall. My beautiful Barron.”
