Trump says his son Donald Trump Jr has calmed down since his marriage to Bettina Anderson.
The couple legally married in West Palm Beach, Florida, on May 21, according to marriage records, before celebrating with family and friends at a private island in the Bahamas.
US President Donald Trump said his eldest son, Donald Trump Jr, has been a different person ever since marrying Bettina Anderson, joking that the 48-year-old has “calmed down so much” and is now “like a different human being”. And he just got married, he’s happily married, which is nice,” Trump said. “Don’s here with a whole group — whole group of family. “He’s calmed down so much. That’s like a good sign. He’s like a different human being,” Trump added. Donald Trump Jr and Bettina Anderson got married in May this year.
Trump made the comments while speaking to US diplomats and staff at the US ambassador’s residence in Dublin on Friday during his visit to Ireland.
Because of the situation involving Iran and other government matters, at the time, he said he wanted to be with his son but had to remain in Washington.
“While I very much wanted to be with my son, Don Jr., and the newest member of the Trump Family, his soon-to-be wife, Bettina, circumstances pertaining to Government, and my love for the United States of America, do not allow me to do so,” Trump had said in a Truth Social post. He said he had tried to persuade Melania to accompany him but she pointed out that the trip would take seven hours. Trump did not attend the Bahamas wedding celebrations.
