Compared to his famous father, Barron Trump mostly keeps his head down. When he was a youngster in the White House, his parents did their best to keep him away from the paparazzi. And now the Barron is all grown up and attending NYU, he has continued to stay out of the limelight, preferring to blend into the famous campus as just another student.
Unfortunately, Barron Trump avoiding the media hasn’t kept crazy rumors from sprouting up, especially when it comes to his love life. In fact, the latest rumor involves him dating a woman who is famous all around the world. If that’s not crazy enough, this rumor has prompted renewed questions about just how tall Barron really is.
Who is Barron rumored to be dating? Is there any truth to the rumors, and what does this have to do with his real height? Keep reading to find out!
A wild new rumor about Barron Trump’s love life
Just who does the internet think Barron Trump is dating? Brace yourself, because this one is pretty crazy. According to rumors spreading like wildfire across social media, Barron Trump is dating Caitlin Clark. If that name doesn’t ring a bell, you’re probably not much of a sports fan. After all, she’s a member of the WNBA who plays for the Indiana Fever.
She’s a point guard, and according to many basketball lovers, she’s got the chops to be one of this generation’s greatest players. Because of this, clips of her moves on the court often go viral, all of which helps to grow her viral fame. Long story short, she’s famous and Barron Trump’s famous, and many online fans of both have convinced themselves that these two celebs are this year’s hot new item.

The internet has a field day with the new rumor
In case you’re curious, there doesn’t seem to be much truth to this rumor (more on that very soon). That leads to an obvious question: if there’s nothing to really substantiate it, then why has this rumor been spreading so aggressively? One reason for this is that countless online users have their own crushes on both Barron Trump and Caitlin Clark. The two of them dating each other would mean that each of these celebs is off the market, and even the thought of that has made users of platforms like X (formerly Twitter), very sad.
The other primary reason the rumor has proven to be so popular is that both Barron and Caitlin are very tall. With respect to Melania Trump, Barron seems to have mostly inherited the genes of the famously tall Donald Trump; meanwhile, Caitlin is rocking the kind of height that makes her a menace to shorter gals on the basketball court. Thanks to their mutual tall status, many internet users couldn’t help but wonder how tall Barron and Caitlin’s kids would be, especially since Barron has been taller than Donald Trump for a long time now.
How tall are Barron Trump and Caitlin Clark?
That obviously led to another question: just how tall are they? Caitlin is six feet tall on the nose. Like all professional basketball players, she is very tall compared to the average woman. Of course, she’s not actually that tall compared to Barron Trump!
While we don’t have the latest measurements down to the inch, Barron is no shorter than 6’7” and may be as tall as 6’9.” As you can tell, Barron and Caitlin are both rocking some serious height. And even though they aren’t dating, it’s true that their kids really would be wildly tall!

Is there any truth to this rumor?
It only takes a day or two of being online before you realize that most users live by the old adage, “Never let the truth get in the way of a good story.” It’s one thing for the rumor mill to claim that Barron Trump and Caitlin Clark are dating, but is there any real truth to the story? In a word: no. There have been no photographs of the two together, and there have been no insiders in either’s camp to dish on the two being an item. It looks for all the world like this is just one of those crazy rumors someone created, and it got popular enough that a small army of social media users thought this was real instead of “fake news.”
If you still think that Barron and Caitlin are dating and just keeping it a secret, consider this: at 23, Caitlin is a full four years older than 19-year-old Barron. That would mean a weird age gap the two would have to overcome, and Caitlin is busy dating Butler University Assistant Coach Connor McCaffery. Meanwhile, even though nobody knows who the lucky woman might be, there are strong rumors that Barron Trump is already happily dating someone he met at NYU.
Why, though, is everyone so focused on who Barron Trump is dating? He’s rich, he’s handsome, and he also happens to be the son of the most powerful person in the world. Additionally, Barron avoiding the spotlight may have backfired because it created a sense of mystique, and his many fans are always hungry for news (even, as it happens, fake news) about his love life!
