Barron Trump, currently a New York University goer, is the only child of Donald Trump and his wife, Melania Trump. But, quite literally the 6ft 9in strong Trump’s age gap with his siblings raised curiosity among many Americans.

Barron’s nearest sibling in age, Tiffany Trump, is 32. Tiffany, who is the daughter of Trump’s former wife Marla Maples, is the closest to Barron in age but still 13 years gap.

Eric Trump's hilarious height story about brother Barron

Eric Trump, now 41, is 22 years older than Barron. The youngest son from Trump’s first marriage to Ivana Trump, Eric, recently shared some brotherly banter about Barron during his appearance on the PBD podcast. “Barron is tough as hell, vicious as hell, and a great friend,” Eric said with a laugh.

“Barron is a really, really good kid and he's come into his own in like a beautiful way but it pisses me off, can I fill everyone in? So I'm 6'5, right? I'm not exactly a small guy. I became like the family midget after Barron.”

“He was 15 years old. I go back to back with the kid and he's literally got me by like a quarter of an inch and I'm sitting there saying, ‘This sucks.’ I used to be the tall guy in the family and now I'm the runt,” he recalled, and added, “So when you get overtaken by a 15-year-old, I'm not happy about it.”

Ivanka Trump, 43, is 25 years older than Barron, while Donald Trump Jr., 47, is a full 28 years older.

President Trump, once quipped Barron’s towering height to his late mother-in-law’s cooking. “That’s how he got so tall, he only ate her food,” he joked, referring to Melania’s late mother, Amalija Knavs.

“I said, you’re gonna be a basketball player,” Trump recalled. “He said, well ‘I like soccer dad’, actually. I thought... at your height I like basketball better but you can’t talk them into everything.”
