Barron Trump, the youngest son of former US President Donald Trump and Melania Trump, recently graduated from Oxbridge Academy in Palm Beach, Florida, with his parents in attendance.
At 18 years old, Barron remains largely out of the public eye. Donald Trump previously told NBC News that Melania is very focused on raising their son.
Speculations about Barron Trump being autistic have circulated, but these are not based on any official confirmation or public statements from Barron or his family. Cross River Therapy has noted that while there has been speculation, it remains unverified without confirmation from the family or professionals.
These rumors arose partly from observations of Barron’s behavior during public events, but they lack substantiation.
During his 2016 presidential campaign, Donald Trump denied the claims, calling them “disgraceful” and “fake news” in a 2017 Fox News interview. Additionally, Melania Trump threatened legal action against a YouTube user who suggested Barron was autistic. The user later deleted the video and apologized.
Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects social relationships and communication, and it can also influence behaviors, thinking, and problem-solving. The condition varies widely among individuals.
