As Donald and Melania Trump’s son, Barron Trump, begins his sophomore year at New York University, his mother reportedly remains closely involved in his life. According to an exclusive report, an insider revealed that “Melania watches Barron constantly.” A mother tends to worry about her children, and the First Lady of the United States is no exception.
Melania Trump constantly ‘watches’ Barron Trump to make sure he is okay, says source
Like any other parent concerned for their kids, Melania Trump worries about her and Donald Trump’s son, Barron Trump. Barron has started going to NYU’s Stern School of Business, and his mother keeps a constant eye on his day-to-day life. A political source spoke to PEOPLE, revealing that Melania does this “in an effort to be sure nobody messes with him or bullies him, as this is a constant worry with her.”
The source added, “She always knows where he is and what he’s doing.” Melania reportedly worries about Barron’s safety, social life, and academic adjustments while he navigates college in New York City. She reportedly also intends to keep him on track: “She will do everything she can to make sure Barron does well in school and is socially and mentally adjusted to his life as a college student.” During his freshman year, dormitory living was not part of the plan. As such, Barron resided at the Trump Tower in Midtown Manhattan.
Despite the family’s political status, another source told PEOPLE that Barron’s social transition at NYU has been positive. The source claimed, “Yes, even liberal people like him.” This is naturally great news for Melania Trump, whose focus on her son, Barron, comes as she balances other commitments. While being “busy with her documentary,” her careful oversight stands true to her approach of protecting her son’s privacy.
With Barron now 19 and continuing his studies amid ongoing political attention on his family, those close to the situation say Melania’s priority is the same. She wants to ensure stability while he completes his education and builds an independent life in the country.
