Since he was elected the 47th president of the United States, Donald Trump has shared many special “presidential” moments with his family and inner circle — and most, if not all, have been attended by members of the Trump family.
But some haven’t.
Most recently, when President Donald Trump turned 79 years old on Saturday, June 14, 2025, it was a nationwide affair. The U.S. Army just hosted its 250th anniversary with Trump’s military parade in Washington, D.C., something he has wanted since his first term. The White House told USA TODAY that it was merely a coincidence that the Army’s anniversary celebration was held on Trump’s 79th birthday.
The parade was livestreamed on all social platforms from the Army as well as from USA TODAY and news outlets across the country.
Parade attendees in the heart of Washington, D.C., and viewers online could see that not every member of the Trump family made it to the VIP box − for the military parade and Trump’s birthday celebration. Noticeably absent were Ivanka Trump and Barron Trump, his oldest daughter and youngest son.
In fact, it’s been a while since the entire Trump family made a public appearance together since he was sworn in for a second time on Jan. 20, 2025.
Below is a list of the people in Donald Trump’s inner circle, the high-profile events the Trump family has attended since Inauguration Day and the last public appearance made by Barron Trump.
Sightings of Barron Trump, sole child of Donald and Melania Trump, have been rare. The 19-year-old, 6-foot-7-inch-tall Barron Trump, a rising sophomore at New York University, last made a public appearance when his father was sworn in at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C., for Inauguration Day (Jan. 20, 2025).
March 20, 2025, was Barron Trump’s 19th birthday. His father was home visiting Mar-a-Lago that week before flying to Trump Tower to be with his youngest son. While in college, Barron Trump lives in Manhattan, New York, which is close to NYU’s Stern School of Business.
Since Jan. 20, Donald Trump has returned to his home state of Florida 11 times, with 10 visits to his private club, Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach. According to Palm Beach Post reporting, neither Barron Trump nor Melania Trump have accompanied the president on board Air Force One to Mar-a-Lago or Florida since Inauguration Day. However, other celebrities, Trump family members and well-known public figures like Elon Musk and Little X Musk have.
Before he turned 18, Barron Trump was largely kept out of the spotlight because of Melania Trump’s protective nature. He has shown interest in his father’s politics, particularly during the 2024 presidential election, though he did not make many public appearances.
On June 14, 2025, the U.S. Army hosted its 250th anniversary celebration with a military parade in the heart of Washington, D.C., on the same day of President Donald Trump’s 79th birthday.

On April 12, 2025, the president took Air Force One from Mar-a-Lago to Miami, Florida, for the UFC 314 fight. His friend, UFC CEO Dana White, walked out with Trump to the arena with roars and cheers from the crowd. Elon Musk, SpaceX founder and his son with singer Grimes, X Æ A-12 Musk or “Little X” Musk, sat in the VIP box with Donald Trump. As did Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Health and Human Services Secretary, and actress Cheryl Hines (“Curb Your Enthusiasm,” “A Bad Moms Christmas”), wife of RFK Jr. In a viral video, Donald Trump was seen “ignoring” a handshake from Hines when greeting RFK.

The weekend of April 3, 2025, marked Donald Trump’s ninth visit to Florida and his eighth visit to Mar-a-Lago. On this weekend, Trump managed a golf trifecta — he attended, played or competed at all three of his Trump National Golf Club sites in Florida. He famously landed his helicopter on the golf course.
Trump National Doral Golf Club in Miami, where he appeared, also hosted the Saudi-backed LIV Golf tournament that weekend. On April 5 and April 6, 2025, protesters converged in about 1,300 Trump-Elon Musk “Hands Off, Fight Back” rallies nationwide, with 45 in Florida alone and some down the road from Mar-a-Lago.

Since President Donald Trump’s Inauguration Day on Jan. 20, 2025, which also was Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Day, life for the commander-in-chief has been busy. From Jan. 20 to June 14, for example, Donald Trump visited his home state of Florida 11 times and his private club and primary residence, Mar-a-Lago, 10 times. He has been to Florida for all but three weekends since Jan. 20.
In addition to his presidential duties, traveling and legislation, Trump has made time for significant events in sports including Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans, Louisiana; the Daytona 500 at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida; the NCAA wrestling championship finals in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; the 2025 LIV Golf Tournament at his golf club in Florida and UFC fights in Miami, Florida. Members of the Trump family have attended these events, but the entire Trump family clan has not been publicly seen together since the week of Inauguration Day festivities. That includes all five Trump children, Donald’s Trump’s grandchildren, Vanessa Trump, Marla Maples, Bettina Anderson, Melania Trump and her father, Viktor Knavs.
