Donald Trump, who stands at 6’3″ tall, is reportedly ’embarrassed’ to be photographed next to his son Barron, who is a staggering 6’9″ tall
Barron Trump is staggeringly tall, so much so that dad Donald Trump reportedly doesn’t like to stand next to him.
The 18-year-old, who recently started college at New York University, played a significant role in his father’s campaign by winning over younger fans and the crypto crowd. Barron helped his dad further tap into the so-called “bro” vote by coordinating podcast appearances with the likes of Joe Rogan, Adin Ross and other online right-wing influencers.
While Donald is happy with his son’s political work, he is said to feel self-conscious about being photographed next to his towering son.
How tall is Barron Trump?
Despite standing at a respectable 6’3″, the president-elect is dwarfed by his youngest child, who stands at an impressive 6’9″.
According to The Daily Mail, the Republican president-elect now feels insecure due to the staggering height difference, with his son having six inches on him.

After standing on stage alongside Trump and Melania in November, many people took to social media to comment on Barron’s staggering height.
One person wrote: “Barron Trump may very well be just three normal height humans stacked on top of one another.” Another said: “My goodness. Barron Trump is twice his height as eight years ago.”
Last year, Trump revealed his son’s height can be attributed to his late grandmother’s cooking – Melania’s mother, Amalija.
“Boy, did she take care of Barron,” Trump said from his campaign headquarters. “That’s how he got so tall – he only ate her food.”
Barron also gets it from his mother, with Melania standing at 5’11” tall.
The teen is also a lot taller than the rest of Trump’s inner circle, with Elon Musk coming in at 6’2″ and JD Vance at exactly the same height.
