Melania Trump is reportedly frustrated with her son-in-law Eric Trump after he brought her son Barron into the spotlight once again. Even in the Trump family, where public attention is constant, some subjects remain off-limits—and for Melania, her 19-year-old son is one of them. Barron, the former First Lady’s only child with Donald Trump, has long been shielded from political drama despite growing up in the public eye. But according to new reports, that boundary may have been crossed during a recent interview involving Eric Trump.

The controversy stems from a viral moment at Donald Trump’s inauguration earlier this year, when cameras captured Barron speaking briefly with Joe Biden before the ceremony. Social media quickly exploded with speculation about what he said, with “lip readers” offering wildly different theories. Months later, Eric revisited the moment during an appearance on The Megyn Kelly Show, claiming he had asked Barron directly. According to Eric, the teenager simply offered Biden a polite congratulatory remark—nothing rude or confrontational.

While Eric’s comments cast Barron in a positive light, insiders claim Melania was far from pleased that he spoke publicly about her son at all. Sources told Stylecaster that Melania allegedly told Eric to “shut his mouth,” insisting she does not want Barron discussed in interviews or used as fodder for political chatter. The former First Lady is described as fiercely protective, especially now that Barron is beginning college and trying to maintain a quiet, private life.

If reports are accurate, the tensions highlight a long-standing dynamic in the Trump household: Melania’s unwavering commitment to keeping her son out of the political circus. And with the holidays approaching, insiders can only imagine how lively family gatherings might become.
