About Kai Trump
Kai Madison Trump was born on May 12, 2007, in New York City. The eldest daughter of Donald Trump Jr. and Vanessa Trump (née Haydon), she is the first grandchild of Donald Trump, the 45th and 47th U.S. President. Named after her great-grandfather, Danish jazz musician Kai Ewans, Kai grew up in a high-profile family, moving from New York to Jupiter, Florida, in 2019. She is the oldest of five siblings: brothers Donald III, Tristan, and Spencer, and sister Chloe. Her parents divorced in 2018, but Kai maintains close relationships with her family, often sharing moments with her siblings and grandfather on social media. Her early life was shaped by privilege, access to elite education, and an early introduction to golf, starting at age two when her mother gave her first golf club. Her ethnicity is primarily Danish and Scottish-American, reflecting her paternal lineage through her father’s Danish and Scottish heritage, with additional European ancestry from her mother’s side.
Kai has built a significant social media presence, particularly on TikTok (@thekaitrumpgolfer), Instagram (@kaitrumpgolfer), and YouTube (Kai Trump). As of April 2025, her TikTok has 3 million followers with over 34 million likes, Instagram has 1.7 million followers, and YouTube has 1.13 million subscribers. She launched her YouTube channel in October 2024 with a vlog titled “A Regular Day in the Life of Kai Trump,” documenting her routine of school, golf, and socializing. Her content blends golf highlights, lifestyle vlogs, and glimpses into her family’s high-profile events, such as election night at Mar-a-Lago and Donald Trump’s 2025 inauguration, which garnered 27 million views. A TikTok video posted on May 11, 2025, lip-syncing to Nelly Furtado’s “Promiscuous” to celebrate her 18th birthday, amassed 1.2 million views. Kai’s posts often feature her golfing with professionals like Bryson DeChambeau and Garrett Clark, or everyday teen activities like shopping or homecoming prep, appealing to a Gen Z audience. Her social media is managed by AKA Collective, a firm also representing DeChambeau, enhancing her professional image.
Kai attends The Benjamin School in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, a private institution with tuition up to $37,200 annually, where she is set to graduate in 2026. She has committed to the University of Miami to play collegiate golf with the Miami Hurricanes, joining the 2026 signing class. An accomplished golfer, Kai began playing at age four and has been captain of her school’s varsity golf team since her sophomore year. She won the Women’s Club Championship (2022) and Ladies Club Championship (2024) at Trump International Palm Beach, with a competitive handicap of +0.5. Her longest drive is reported at 275 yards, and she led her team to a district championship in 2024. Sponsored by Callaway and TaylorMade, her name, image, and likeness (NIL) valuation is estimated at $1.2 million as of February 2025.
Physically, Kai stands at 5 feet 9 inches and weighs approximately 54 kg, with an athletic build suited for golf. Her hair is naturally brunette but often styled blonde, and she has dark brown eyes. No specific information on her breast size is publicly available, and such details are not typically documented for young public figures like Kai. No surgeries on her breasts, lips, nose, or buttocks are reported, and there is no evidence suggesting cosmetic procedures. She has no documented tattoos or piercings, maintaining a clean, athletic appearance consistent with her sporty persona.
Her net worth is estimated at $21 million as of December 2024, comprising a $16 million trust fund managed by JPMorgan Bank and $2.5 million in annual income from modeling, social media partnerships, golf sponsorships, dividends, interest, and rental receipts. These figures are based on estimates and may vary.
Controversies include her May 2025 TikTok video, captioned “Last day being 17,” which drew criticism for its suggestive song choice and dance, with some calling it “inappropriate” due to her family’s political ties. Others defended her, arguing it was typical teen behavior, and the people complaining likely were doing it over a hatred of her grandfather. The video also attracted inappropriate comments from some adult men, prompting backlash from her supporters. Some outlets, like the Daily Mail, expressed concern about her rapid rise to fame, warning that the spotlight could harm her formative years, but no major scandals are documented.
As of May 2025, Kai, now 18, continues to attend The Benjamin School, compete in golf tournaments, and grow her social media presence. She vlogs her daily life, from training with her coach Alex Paup to visiting friends, while preparing for her collegiate golf career at the University of Miami. Her recent content includes golf highlights, fashion posts featuring designers like Sherri Hill, and occasional family moments, maintaining her role as a Gen Z influencer with a focus on sports and lifestyle.
