Melania Trump is 'livid' over Barron photo leak

Melania Trump is said to be seething after her son Barron's privacy was put at stake over Christmas.

The First Lady, 55, and US President Trump welcomed Barron in 2006 and he is now 19 years old. He's the only child the political pair have together.

Trump also has four children from previous relationships - Donald Jr., 48, Ivanka, 44, and Eric, 41, with ex-wife Ivana, as well as Tiffany, 32 from his marriage to Marla Maples.

According to reports that have circulated over the years, Melania is known to be very protective of her only son and was reportedly livid with her step-son Eric when he spoke about the 19-year-old on a podcast - notably, the viral moment where Barron was chatting to Joe Biden at Trump's inauguration in January.

She allegedly told Eric to 'shut his mouth' following the comments' and 'does not want Barron discussed. Ever,' a source told British-American journalist Rob Shuter's Substack in November.

The source said she was 'deeply uncomfortable' with what was said and 'she protects that boy like a lioness'.

And now, it looks like she's doubling down on that mindset as she's reportedly taken strict action to protect Barron after people allegedly tried to sneak photos and videos of him over the festive period, some of which leaked online.

As per Shuter's Substack, a source claimed that Mar-a-Lago members who were caught taking photos of the teenager walking through the club’s dining area with his dad were threatened with having their membership revoked.

The source said: "Melania made it very clear that Barron’s privacy is non-negotiable. Anyone caught filming or taking pictures would face immediate consequences, including potential banning from the club.”

An insider reportedly added: “Barron was solemnly following his father through the dining room. He was quiet, very reserved, wearing his usual blue suit, almost mirroring Donald.

“The message was clear: no cameras, no leaks. Private family moments stay private."

As we say, it's reportedly not the first time Melania has been rattled by someone messing with her son's privacy.

Just last month, Shuter also claimed on his Substack that Melania 'exploded' when she found out a TikTok pastor had shared private details from a conversation he had with Barron.

Pastor Stuart Knechtle allegedly went on a podcast and revealed that Barron is 'very close to putting his faith in Christ'.

A White House insider reportedly told Shuter: "Melania has always stressed discretion. She believes her family’s private life is sacred. This? It’s a betrayal.”

A second said: "Melania exploded when she heard about it. This isn’t just disappointment - it’s fury."

And a third source claimed: “This isn’t about politics or religion. It’s about trust. She has always tried to shield him from the spotlight."

Tyla has contacted the White House for comment.
