Barron Trump, Trump’s youngest son, graduated from high school on May 17. Luckily, Trump and his wife, Melania Trump, were able to leave their court problems behind for a while. During the event, Melania’s beautiful outfit, especially the stylish and useful straw hat she wore to block the sun, shocked and turned heads of everyone there.
To give you some history, Trump initially believed he would not be able to attend Barron’s graduation because of the timetable set by Judge Merchan in the “hush money” case. Trump said, “I was looking forward to graduation for years with his mother and father there, and it looks like the judge isn’t going to let me escape the scam.” That changed in the end, though, so Trump could watch Barron on his big day.
So, Trump and Melania went to the very exclusive Oxbridge Academy in West Palm Beach on Friday. This is the school where Barron, 18, finished his education after his family moved from New York City to Florida. While they watched Barron graduate, two police snipers watched from above the announcers’ box. US Marshals and officers from the Palm Beach Sheriff’s Office also patrolled the area.
The smartly dressed people who came walked around and talked with each other before gathering on the bleachers to watch the graduation and applaud their friends and family. The Trump family did the same thing. They arrived in a limousine just minutes before the graduation and went straight to the football field.
A lot of people cheered as former President Trump walked to the football field in his usual dark suit, but with a blue tie instead of a red one. People cheered when Trump showed up, but it was Melania’s incredibly beautiful outfit that stole the show.
She wore a nice blue blazer and a pretty straw hat to protect herself from the hot Florida sun as she walked into the stadium with her father Viktor Knavs and her ex-husband, who was president at the time.

Trump, posting on Truth Social before the graduation, said, “Going to Barron’s High School Graduation. Great student, wonderful boy! Very exciting!!! DJT” Further, Trump spoke about Barron shortly before the graduation, saying that he’s a “great guy.” He said, “He’s seen it. He doesn’t have to hear. He is a smart one. He doesn’t have to hear much. But he’s, he’s a great guy.”
Continuing, Trump added that Barron is good-looking and tall, saying, “He’s a little on the tall side; I will tell you. He’s a tall one, but he is a good-looking guy.” Trump then added that Barron is into politics, saying, “And he’s really been a great student. And he does like politics. It’s sort of funny. He’ll tell me sometimes, ‘Dad, this is what you have to do.’”
