He sneaks her candy and soda when her parents aren’t looking.
And when they hit the golf course, he’s all about getting inside her head.
Now, Kai Trump spills the tea on her unique bond with grandpa Donald – and believe me, you won’t be able to imagine what she opens up about…
Donald Trump’s big family is known for being tight-knit and full of colorful personalities. Among them is his 17-year-old granddaughter, Kai Trump, who’s recently been gaining attention.
Kai was quick to congratulate her grandpa when he secured another shot at the White House – and it wasn’t just a typical gesture of family loyalty. Their bond seems to go deeper than that.
While Kai has mostly stayed out of the spotlight in the past, her relationship with her grandpa, Donald, is one that’s clearly filled with love and respect.
So, who is Kai Trump really, and what’s it like being the granddaughter of one of the most prominent figures in America?
Kai Trump arrived like a real Trump
Kai Madison Trump is the first child of Donald Trump Jr. and his ex-wife, Vanessa, making her the eldest grandchild of Donald Trump’s 10 grandchildren.
Born on May 12, 2007, in New York, she was named after her maternal grandfather, Kai Ewans, a Danish jazz musician.
The story goes that Vanessa went into labor at a charity benefit in the city, and Kai, eager to meet the world, arrived two weeks early — just like a true Trump!

She weighed in at 6 pounds and 14 ounces.
Donald Trump Jr. was all smiles as he spoke to People magazine from the hospital, saying, ”Everyone’s great.”
As for Donald Trump himself, he was warming up to the idea of being a grandpa.
”It’s not something I had necessarily in mind, but it feels very nice,” he told New York Post after the news of Kai’s arrival broke.
Growing up in New York, Kai and her uncle Barron Trump are close in age — just 14 months apart — so they spent a lot of time together. Quite the Trump duo, right?
Although Kai was born and raised in the Big Apple, she now resides in Jupiter, Florida, with her mother.
Out of the spotlight
In the early years of her upbringing, there wasn’t much public attention.
Kai wasn’t often mentioned in the media, and one of the first public photos of her surfaced in 2014.
