The Trump Family: America's Incoming First Family

A profile of the Trump family's influence in American politics
President-elect Donald Trump is set to return to the White House in January, accompanied by his prominent family, who have played significant roles in both his previous administration and recent campaign.

The Trump family comprises five children and 10 grandchildren from Trump's three marriages.

- Donald Trump Jr -
As the oldest Trump child, Donald Trump Jr., 46, actively promotes Trump's 'Make America Great Again' agenda, notably through his popular 'Triggered' podcast.

His political influence includes supporting J.D. Vance's rise from an Ohio senator to Trump's vice-presidential pick.

Don Jr., father of five with ex-wife Vanessa Trump, is currently married to Kimberly Guilfoyle, a former Fox News presenter who campaigned for Trump.

- Eric Trump -
Eric Trump, 40, also ardently supports his father's political ambitions through media and campaign rallies.

An executive at The Trump Organization with his brother, Eric has two children with Lara Trump, who was recently appointed co-chair of the Republican National Committee.

- Ivanka Trump -
In her father's previous administration, Ivanka Trump, 43, faced nepotism concerns as 'advisor to the president'.

Now focusing on family with husband Jared Kushner and their children, she scaled back during Trump's 2024 campaign.

- Melania Trump -
Future First Lady Melania Trump, 54, has maintained a low public profile since advocating for children's health and online safety during her husband's first term.

Her recent memoir revealed divergent views on abortion compared to Trump's policies.

Melania has one son, Barron, studying at NYU.

- Tiffany Trump -
Lastly, Tiffany Trump, 31, daughter of Trump and Marla Maples, kept a low profile but supported Trump in his legal trials.

Married to Michael Boulos, Tiffany is expecting their first child.
