Who is Tiffany Trump? Get to know Donald’s “other” daughter and her Lebanese father-in-law
Tiffany Trump has kept a lower profile than her siblings within the Trump-sphere thanks in part to her mother bringing her up by herself in California.
Donald Trump has five children from three separate marriages. His three eldest are the most recognizable, Don Jr., Ivanka and Eric, having become prominent faces of the family business, taken part in ‘The Apprentice” and been integral to his campaigns for president and advisors to his administration and the MAGA political movement.
His youngest son, Barron, is fairly recognizable having entered the public spotlight at young age while Donald Trump was running for the White House in 2016. However, his fourth child and other daughter Tiffany is the lesser known of the Trump siblings.
Here’s what we know about Tiffany Trump and her mother Marla Maples: The former president’s “other” daughter
Tiffany is the only child that Donald Trump had with his second wife Marla Maples during their short marriage between 1993 and 1997. Trump had met Maples in 1985 at a celebrity tennis match. Over the following years, the friendship between the then-model and the real estate developer still married to Ivana Trump became a secret romance. Ivana learned of the affair during an annual holiday trip to Aspen in 1989 and filed for divorce in the spring of the next year.
Tiffany was born in Palm Beach, Florida a few months before the New York real estate mogul and the celebrity wed at the Plaza Hotel in New York. Her father named her after the famous jewelry store, partly in tribute to the store itself as well as his landmark real estate deal that gave him the air rights to build Trump Tower above the brand’s New York City storefront.
Unlike her siblings, she grew up out of the spotlight of the Trump-sphere on the other side of the country. After the divorce between Maples and Trump was finalized in 1999, Tiffany’s mother decided to raise her by herself in California out of her father’s shadow.
Maples told People that while she hadn’t planned on being a single mother, she wanted Tiffany to have a similar childhood to her own growing up in rural Georgia, including a big backyard and home-cooked organic meals. She also saw it as a way for her daughter to “discover who she is.”
Even so, Tiffany did spend time with her father as she was growing up on the West Coast. Her mother would take her to New York a couple times a year during school breaks and he would come out to California when she won awards. She would also spend time at her father’s Mar-a-Lago beach club in Palm Beach, Florida.
Maples also felt it important that she have a bond with her other four siblings telling People, “I never let her ever think of them as her half sister or half brothers.” Tiffany’s mother thought it important that the kids “always stay connected and rooted” regardless of what was happening between her and Trump.
Tiffany attended her father’s alma mater, the University of Pennsylvania. Afterward she got her law degree at Georgetown Law School graduating in 2020. During her father’s presidency she did not take a political role while he was in the White House.
She now lives in Miami, Florida near to her father’s home and those of her siblings. Tiffany and her husband Michael Boulos were married in 2022 at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach. The couple is expecting their first child.
