Long before he became president, Donald Trump had something of a reputation for being a philanderer. Aside from the obvious "grab 'em by the p***y" comments and multiple accusations of assault he's had leveled against him, the former businessman was also well-known for reportedly cheating on his first wife, Ivana. Plus, if recent comments from Stormy Daniels are to be believed, it seems that he may have pulled the same stunt while he was with Melania.

But it seems that the apple might not have fallen too far from the tree, as, in the wake of his divorce from wife Vanessa, Donald Trump Jr.'s womanizing ways have come to light.

Melissa Stretten, a retired model, took to Twitter yesterday afternoon - mere hours after Trump Jr.'s divorce was announced - in order to share a direct message she'd received from the president's son back in 2011. "Surprised his marriage didn’t work out since he was sending me DMs a month after his wife gave birth," she said.

She then proceeded to share a screenshot of the message, in which the president's son flirtatiously hinted that he wanted to see a little more of Stretten. Unlucky for him, she wasn't having any of it.

After that, she went on to share two more tweets that Trump Jr. still has on his timeline from the exchange seven years ago. For context: this is what he was referring to when he mentioned bacon:

Oh, and if that wasn't weird enough, he also went on to tweet this:

Following Stretten's lead, other people starting digging up slightly questionable tweets from Trump Jr.'s past - and some of them are seriously odd.

There had been some speculation that Trump Jr. and his wife were planning on going their separate ways for a while, but the couple officially announced it to Page Six yesterday:

“After 12 years of marriage, we have decided to go our separate ways. We will always have tremendous respect for each other and our families. We have five beautiful children together and they remain our top priority. We ask for your privacy during this time.”

Meanwhile, the rest of Twitter were too busy laughing about the circumstances under which the pair originally met:

So, much like his father's multiple relationships, it seems that the fate of Trump Jr.'s marriage was pretty much written on the wall from the start.

Sources had hinted that the couple had been having issues since Trump Sr. took office, as Trump Jr. was suddenly away from home a lot due to him having taken over the family business with his brother, Eric. However, others mentioned that Vanessa was becoming concerned with how "unhinged" Trump Jr. was in his tweets. Again, the similarities between the businessman and his father really shine through here.

Neither Trump Jr. or Vanessa have responded to the tweets, nor have they commented on the story of their original meeting. So far, though, Twitter doesn't seem to bothered by it; they're still too busy laughing at the couple's wedding picture...

President Donald Trump attempted to stop speculation about his health by sharing a photo online, but instead, the move raised questions.

Concerns about the 79-year-old’s well-being have mounted in recent days, as he has gone several days without speaking in front of a camera.

As rumors swirled, the US leader's social media activity became the center of attention, with supporters and critics alike searching for “proof” that he was OK, but one of his posts on August 31 only added fuel to the fire.

Sharing an image of himself on the golf course with former football coach Jon Gruden, Trump wrote: “Great playing Golf with Jon Gruden - A really nice guy, and true character!”

At first glance, nothing seemed unusual until people realized the round of golf actually took place more than a week earlier, on August 23.

Retired US Navy officer Travis Akers was quick to point out the discrepancy on X. “I’m not a conspiracy theory guy, but if you’re fighting off increasing rumors that you may have suffered a major medical episode and to disprove that rumor and provide proof of life, you post a picture of allegedly playing golf with Jon Gruden today, it would be beneficial to post one that wasn’t from August 23rd,” he wrote.

"Gruden’s Instagram and the AP archives confirm the picture President Trump posted is over a week old. Look at the matched clothing, and time and date stamps, " he continued. "Attention to detail."

Another person asked: “Is it not very bizarre to any reporter that Trump/The WH and their allies are trying to pass off a photo of Trump and Gruden as having been taken today, and not last week? is anyone talking about this??? I feel like I’m going crazy!”

Still, the post appeared to reassure some supporters as one wrote: “BREAKING: President Trump’s health is doing just fine. Liberals were wrong.”

A second added: “While Democrats swore Trump was having a medical emergency, he was out golfing with Jon Gruden! He’s at the TOP OF HIS GAME!”

The golf snap came after a flurry of online conspiracy theories, with hashtags like “Trump Is Dead” and “Where is Donald Trump” trending when the White House schedule appeared blank on August 29.

Some pointed to Vice President JD Vance’s recent interview, in which he said he was prepared to assume the presidency in the event of a “terrible tragedy," as further cause for speculation.

Others dragged in The Simpsons creator Matt Groening, recycling years-old conspiracy theories about cartoon “predictions".

Rumors cooled when Trump was photographed golfing in Virginia with his granddaughter, Kai Trump, on August 30.

The following day, he broke his silence on Truth Social, writing: “NEVER FELT BETTER IN MY LIFE. Also, DC IS A CRIME FREE ZONE!”

That last claim came as the New York Post reported that violent crime in Washington, D.C. has fallen 45% compared to the same period last year, with overall crime dropping 15% - figures that even Democratic Mayor Muriel Bowser acknowledged.

“We greatly appreciate the surge of officers that enhance what MPD has been able to do in this city,” she said last week.

The reason for Barron Trump’s low profile and avoidance of the spotlight has finally been revealed by his sister-in-law.

This week, Lara Trump, the wife of Barron’s second-oldest brother, Eric, discussed why the president’s youngest son tries to remain under the radar.

On her podcast, Right View, she revealed that the 20-year-old is very conscious that he's considered a high-profile figure who is often the centre of strange online conspiracy theories.

Lara said, "I feel like he’s the sleeper.

"You want to hear more about Barron because you see less of him. And I think that’s kind of cool.

"I don’t know if he realises the internet is 'obsessed' with him, but he knows that there’s a lot of interest, which is why he likes to lay low. v

"That’s why he likes to play it cool.

"That's why you don’t see him all the time."

Former co-chair of the Republican National Committee, Lara, added that Barron’s current studies at New York University in Washington, D.C. may also contribute to his rare sightings.

She claimed that the young business student is 'excited to finish college and get out and work,' and she added, 'which I love'.

Lara continued, "It's crazy because I've seen Barron grow up, which means I'm 160 years old.

“But he's turned out to be a really great kid."

Barron clearly has a very different attitude to his public image compared to his four siblings, particularly Ivanka and Donald Jr, who are constantly making international headlines.

The president has five children with three different mothers: Donald Jr, 48, Ivanka, 44, and 42-year-old Eric, with his first wife, Ivana, who died in 2022; Tiffany, 32, from his second short-lived marriage to Marla Marples; and Barron, 20, with first lady Melania Trump.

As the only child of the president and the first lady, who was also very young the first time his father entered the Oval Office, there is arguably more public pressure on Trump’s youngest son.

But, since his father’s return to the White House last January, Barron has only been spotted in public a handful of times, including at a Mar-a-Lago Thanksgiving dinner, at a New Year's celebration, and at the February 2026 State of the Union address, where he sat with his siblings in the House chamber.

Despite his low profile, Barron’s sister-in-law explained that his decision to lay low is rather wise, and he is totally aware of “what’s going on out there”.

She added, "In fact, we had a huge discussion at dinner on Sunday night at the White House about whether a certain image, I won't tell you what it is, was AI or real.

"And Barron and I were the only two that said, 'That's AI. You guys are all wrong. It's AI.

"We were right. Proved it that night."

In 2024, British singer Gary Barlow’s son made headlines for his freakishly large genetics, but 2025 saw Donald Trump’s son, Barron, steal the spotlight as the latest famous offspring to be blessed with a gigantic frame, prompting a large response from social media.

Estimated to be standing at a whopping 6-foot-7 to 6-foot-9, the US president’s youngest child has understandably drawn attention for reasons other than simply being the American leader’s son.

Barron towers over his siblings in family photo

After Trump’s children gathered for a family photo, it was Barron’s remarkable height that got people talking once again. The picture, posted by Ivanka Trump on Tuesday, quickly sparked conversation online, with many stunned by how tall the baby of the family has become.

Standing next to his older half-siblings from Trump’s first marriage to Ivana Trump, Barron appeared to dwarf them all. Notably absent from the photo was Eric Trump, another child from Trump and Ivana’s marriage.

Also included in the snapshot was Tiffany Trump, Barron’s half-sister whose mother is Marla Maples, Trump’s former wife. The extended family was represented too, including Ivanka’s husband Jared Kushner, Donald Jr.’s girlfriend Bettina Anderson, and Tiffany’s husband Michael Boulos.

The 19-year-old was always genetically predisposed to be one of significant aerial presence, with his father listed at 6-foot-3, while his mother, former model and now First Lady, Melania Trump, stands at approximately 5-foot-11.

The photo was taken when Trump’s children attended his State of the Union address on February 24, which lasted a record-breaking one hour and 47 minutes. Social media users quickly reacted to Barron’s towering frame, with some joking that he looked “12 feet tall,” while others marveled at just how much he stood out in the group.

Trump has previously commented on his son’s height, crediting Melania’s late mother, Amalija Knavs, for taking exceptional care of him. Per the Daily Mail, during a 2024 campaign rally, he joked that Barron grew so tall because he ate her cooking, adding that he had encouraged his son to consider basketball due to his stature. However, Barron preferred soccer.

Last month, Melania spoke proudly about her son’s growth on Mornings With Maria, noting how different things are now compared to Trump’s first term, when Barron was just 10 years old. At 19, she said, he has a stronger understanding of politics, offers advice to his father, and actively engages in discussions about current affairs.

Donald Trump has left Twitter perplexed by sharing a bizarre three-word statement.

The former president, 75, had the statement posted to shared to Twitter by his spokesperson Liz Harrington yesterday (August 11), and it was shared with no clarification or context, Independent reports.

The statement simply read: "Bullies never fight."

The short address was also shared by the Director of Communications for Save America and Donald J Trump, Taylor Budowich.

Washington Examiner is also reporting that the cryptic message was also sent to all recipients of the former president's email list on Wednesday.

The statement did not go unnoticed on the social media website, and people were quick to speculate about what the former president could have meant by the three-word address.

One person simply questioned: "LOL. What the f**k is going on?"

A second, meanwhile, questioned why Trump could still post statements via his staff to Twitter after being banned from the platform earlier this year.

They wrote: "why is she allowed to keep posting statements from someone who is banned from Twitter? [sic]"

A third jokes: "He sounds like he is having an excellent morning."

Another Twitter user mockingly commented: "So true: 'BULLIES NEVER FIGHT'. They usually incite others to do it for them while they hide in a White House bunker."

Meanwhile, another simply pondered: "Succinct, yet vague."

Then there were some Twitter users who simply used the president's statement as a chance to imitate it with their own three-word statements.

One wrote: "Purple monkey dishwasher."

A second added: "Yellow matter custard."

The Independent reports that Maggie Haberman, a senior correspondent for The New York Times, speculated that the president was referring to the resignation of Andrew Cuomo as the governor of New York following sexual assault allegations.

Trump was permanently banned from Twitter in January in the wake of the January 6 assault on the Capitol "due to the risk of further incitement of violence".
