Engagement after one year

In December 2025, after dating for a year, Donald Trump Jr. and Bettina announced their engagement to the public.

A Bahamas wedding in May

The couple married in a legal ceremony in Florida on May 21, 2026, then held their wedding celebration in the Bahamas the following day.

Trump Sr. skipped the wedding

President Trump did not attend, citing government duties and his love for the United States as reasons he couldn't be there for his son's wedding.

“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.”
