Barron Trump, along with his parents Donald and Melania Trump, was reportedly absent from Donald Trump Jr's wedding in the Bahamas on 23 May, prompting fresh speculation in the US about whether family tension played a part. The private ceremony, attended by fewer than 50 guests, went ahead without the former president, his wife or their 20-year-old son, according to reports citing people close to the family.
The event had been expected to showcase family unity around Donald Trump Jr, 48, and his new wife Bettina. Trump's older children from his first two marriages, Ivanka, Eric and Tiffany, were said to be there, making the absence of Barron and both of his parents especially notable. Donald Trump had already confirmed on Truth Social the day before that he would not attend his eldest son's wedding.
