From Melania Trump’s hat to Elon Musk – all eyes have been on a variety of subjects since President ‘s inauguration.
However, one aspect that has once again caught the public’s attention is . The son of Donald and was thrust into the limelight last year before his father was officially announced as US President for a second term.
Many campaign followers were often taken aback by the 18-year-old’s towering stature, as he frequently stood head and shoulders above his father on stage. Following this week’s inauguration, Barron’s height has been a topic of conversation yet again, but for an entirely different reason.
It appears there was a slight seating mishap at the historic event. A user known as overtimemegan highlighted the moment by posting a video clip online.
In the footage, it’s evident that a smaller woman seated directly behind Barron had her view completely obstructed by him. Over the clip, Megan penned: “Nobody having a worse day than this woman who had a prime spot until 6ft 7in Barron Trump took his seat.”
Don’t miss…
At least you get to be behind Melania too
Upon closer inspection, it’s clear that Barron’s broad shoulders entirely blocked her view, leaving viewers in stitches. The video has racked up over 50,000 views since it was posted, alongside hundreds of comments.
One viewer quipped: “This is freaking hilarious.” Another chimed in with: “Saw that too!”
A third also replied: “Lol.” Someone else noted: “She can only see the ceiling.”
People just couldn’t get over how the seating plan was arranged, with Barron’s height being such a wellknown talking point. The situation left people totally stunned.

The actual height of Barron has reportedly caused widespread confusion, as his father has publicly mentioned different heights. However, it’s believed that he stands at around 6ft 7in, totally towering his dad.
As the child of Melania and Trump, Barron speaks both English and Slovenian, and spent his early years in the luxury penthouse in Manhattan. Unlike his older siblings – Trump Jr, Ivanka, Eric and Tiffany – who were actively involved in Trump’s presidency, Barron has only recently stepped into the public eye.
Sources suggest he played a key role in urging his father to appear on podcasts and YouTube channels targeting young men during the campaign. Melania affectionately refers to him as her “little Donald”, an ironic nickname given his towering height over his parents.
