Donald Trump's Family Tree Traced: From His Parents' Immigrant Roots to his Siblings, Wives and Kids
Donald Trump's Parents
Donald Trump's parents, Frederick Christ Trump Sr. and Mary Anne MacLeod Trump, tied the knot in 1936 and had five children during their marriage.
Fred Sr., born on October 11, 1905, was the son of German immigrants who resided in the Bronx. After spending decades of his life managing his real estate business, he died of pneumonia on June 25, 1999, at the age of 93. According to reports, he also struggled with Alzheimer's disease in the years leading to his death.
Meanwhile, Mary, born on May 10, 1912, moved to the U.S. in 1930 and worked as a domestic servant for years in New York City. She passed away in 2000 at the age of 88.
Donald said of his mother in his 1987 book The Art of the Deal: "She was a very traditional housewife, but she also had a sense of the world beyond her."
Donald Trump's Siblings
Maryanne Trump Barry was the eldest of Fred Sr. and Mary's five children. Born in 1937, she became a lawyer later in life and was married twice: to David Desmond from 1960 to 1980 and to John Joseph Barry from 1982 until his death in 2000.
She passed away at her New York City Home on November 13, 2023. She was 86.
The eldest son in the family, Frederick Christ "Freddy" Trump Jr., was born in 1938. He was expected to take over Fred Sr.'s real estate business, but his alcoholism caused his fatal heart attack in September 1981.
Donald's other sister, Elizabeth Trump Grau, married producer James Grau in March 1989. Although her family has often appeared in the headlines, Elizabeth has maintained a relatively private life.
In 1948, the family welcomed Robert Stewart Trump. He joined their real estate business after a career on Wall Street.
Robert died on August 15, 2020, at the age of 71, following several hospitalizations.
Ivana Trump
Donald was married to his first wife, Ivana Trump, for 15 years, from 1977 to 1992. They welcomed three children — Donald Jr., Ivanka and Eric — before they filed for divorce.
After her failed marriage to Trump, Ivana remarried twice: to Italian businessman Riccardo Mazzucchelli from 1995 to 1997 and to Italian actor Rossano Rubicondi from 2008 to 2009. Although she split from Rossano, they reconciled and dated on and off until his death in 2021.
On July 14, 2022, Ivana died after a fall in her Manhattan home. She was 73.
Marla Maples
After finalizing his divorce from Ivana, Donald wed Marla Maples at The Plaza Hotel in New York City on December 20, 1993.
Ivana said of Donald and Marla's relationship in her memoir, Raising Trump: "After the showgirl got pregnant and had a daughter, Donald married her. The whole world was watching. He couldn't wed the mother of his new baby, regardless of whether his heart was really in it."
However, their marriage did not last as they split in May 1997 and divorced in June 1999.
Melania Trump
Donald found love again after going through two divorces.
He and Melania Trump exchanged vows in January 2005, several years after their first meeting at a Fashion Week party in September 1998. They welcomed their son, Barron, on March 20, 2006.
When Donald was elected president in 2017, Melania made history as the first foreign-born First Lady since John Quincy Adams' wife, Louisa Adams.
Donald Trump Jr.
Donald's eldest child, Don Jr., was born on December 31, 1977. He is currently engaged to Kimberly Guilfoyle, though he has been hit with infidelity rumors involving socialite Bettina Anderson.
Ivanka Trump
Born on October 30, 1981, Donald's eldest daughter, Ivanka, has been married to Jared Kushner since October 2009.
She has been actively working closely with her father, starting with a position at the Trump Organization and as a judge on The Apprentice. In 1997, she co-hosted the Miss Teen U.S.A. pageant.
Eric Trump
Donald welcomed his third and youngest child with Ivana, Eric, on January 6, 1984. He wed TV producer Lara Trump, whom he shares two children with, in November 2014.
Tiffany Trump
Tiffany Trump, Donald's only child with Marla, was born on October 13, 1993, in West Palm Beach, Florida. She and her mother moved to Calabasas, California, as the matriarch wanted to keep her out of the public eye.
Marla told People in 2016: "Her daddy is a good provider with education and such, but as far as time, it was just me."
In November 2022, Tiffany wed businessman Michael Boulos.
Barron Trump
Melania gave birth to her only son, Barron, with Donald on March 20, 2006. After graduating from high school, he started his first year at New York University.
