Donald Trump\u2019s youngest son, Barron, is now 20 and studying in Washington. While much about his relationship with his father remains private, one small but notable detail has recently come to light: Donald\u2019s surprising nickname for Barron.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Donald Trump\u2019s youngest son, Barron Trump, has largely grown up away from the public eye. Now 20 years old and studying at Stern Business School at NYU\u2019s Washington Campus, he has often been described as private and rarely seen in the spotlight.<\/p>\n

Throughout his youth and during Donald Trump\u2019s presidency, Barron remained a key figure in the former president\u2019s family life.<\/p>\n

As Barron is barely seen in public, the relationship with his parents is also kept private. When he was only a toddler, Donald made it clear that he wasn\u2019t going to \u201cchange diapers\u201d but instead let Melania take care of their youngest, raising him into a good person.<\/p>\n

During Donald Trump\u2019s first presidential term, he occasionally spoke about his son, mentioning Barron\u2019s height and love of soccer. As Trump campaigned for a second term, Barron became more visible, reportedly helping his father connect with Gen Z voters through podcasters and influencers.<\/p>\n

When Trump won, he praised his son in front of a large MAGA crowd in Washington.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe knew the youth vote. You know we won the youth vote by 36 points,\u201d Trump said. \u201cHe was saying,\u2019 dad, I got to go out and to this and that one and we did a lot of them. He respects them all, he understood it very well, he said\u2019 dad, you got to go out and do Joe Rogan, all these guys that we did. They were all great, right? Barron, they were all great.\u201d<\/p>\n

As mentioned, not much is known about Barron\u2019s relationship with his parents. However, it turns out he has also been given nicknames. Last year, Melania Trump revealed she used to call her son \u201cLittle Donald.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe is a very strong-minded, very special, smart boy,\u201d Melania told Parenting. \u201cHe is independent and opinionated and knows exactly what he wants.\u201d<\/p>\n

So what does Donald call his son? Well, growing up, he reportedly called Barron \u201clittle boy.\u201d But now, a new book claims he has given Barron Trump a quite special nickname, one many might not have guessed.<\/p>\n

In their forthcoming book\u00a0Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump<\/em>, New York Times reporters Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan reveal that the U.S President calls Barron Trump, \u201cHoney.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the book, Haberman and Swan write that after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, Barron reportedly called his father straight away after hearing the news.<\/p>\n

As he war worried, Donald responded, \u201cCalm down, honey, calm down,\u201d the\u00a0Daily Beast\u00a0reported.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
