Barron Trump is all grown up. See photos of him over the years, including several outings with his parents, Donald and Melania Trump.

Barron Trump is the youngest son of Donald Trump, whom he shares with his wife, Melania Trump. His older siblings are Ivanka Trump, Donald Trump Jr., Eric Trump, and Tiffany Trump. Barron was still in elementary school when his father was elected president in November 2016, and then inaugurated in January 2017. His parents made the choice to do things unconventionally because of this.

Barron and his mother stayed behind in New York City and continued living at the Trump Tower in order to let him finish his semester and not interrupt his schooling. They then moved to the White House.

Barron is rarely seen in public, though he does attend significant White House events, such as his father’s inauguration on Monday, January 20.

To see photos of the former First Son, who will take on the role again, scroll through this gallery.
