On January 18, Melania and Donald Trump celebrated the life of Amalija Knavs with a Palm Beach-based funeral. The solemn event was a family affair, and included appearances from Ivanka Trump, Tiffany Trump, Donald Trump Jr., and Eric Trump. However, the one attendee who turned quite a few heads was Barron Trump, thanks to his shocking height. In photos taken at the event, the youngest Trump child, who stands at a whopping 6 feet 7 inches tall, was shown towering over his father and mother, who are 6 feet 3 inches and 5 feet 11 inches, respectively, per Palm Beach Post.
Shortly after the photos hit the web, some social media users took to X to share their reactions to Barron’s tall stature. One person wrote, “Damn! He can be a basketball player.” Another user commented, “Barron Trump’s nickname should be Trump Tower.” While genetics has a lot to do with Barron’s massive height, Donald joked that his youngest son’s growth spurt was due to the late Amalija’s cooking. “Great people, great parents to all of us, really. Great parents, but also to Barron. Boy did she take care of Barron,” the controversial politician said during an Iowa rally, per The Daily Mail. “That’s how he got so tall, he only ate her food.”
