‘He doesn’t go out': Donald Trump's son Barron laying low amid Iranian threats

The youngest son of the current US President, Barron Trump, is keeping a low profile due to threats from Iran and political violence in the United States, according to a New York Post report. A source close to Trumpworld stated that "He doesn’t go out," while another source described the 20-year-old as "pretty reclusive." Barron was at New York University and recently spent the summer with his mother, First Lady Melania Trump, at Trump National Golf Club Bedminster in New Jersey.

After his father launched a war with Iran on February 28, Iran released a video titled "Where to kill Barron Trump" and offered a $10 million bounty on his head. Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and his granddaughter were killed during the war, which Iran claims is retaliation for the deaths of their leaders. At least three assassination attempts have been made on Donald Trump since July 2024, and his mother, Melania Trump, was also targeted by Iranian hardliners.

Barron's mother, Melania Trump, had to request an extension of Barron's Secret Service detail from then-President Joe Biden in early 2022. Barron has shown signs of awareness and caution regarding the dangers, according to a therapist who works with adolescent trauma. He was last seen in public on July 19, attending the World Cup final with his parents while seated behind bulletproof glass at New York's MetLife Stadium.
