All eyes weren't on the President himself, but on the young girl standing stiffly beside him, caught in the glow of the stadium lights — a moment that quickly spread online and underscored that the former president is also a grandfather to 11 children across four branches of the Trump family.

It was supposed to be just another high-profile sighting of President Donald Trump — but what unfolded at Arthur Ashe Stadium on September 7, 2025, left onlookers riveted. Arabella Kushner, the 14-year-old granddaughter of the president, appeared visibly tense as she stood next to her grandfather in a prime U.S. Open box.

It was a rare public moment that offered a fleeting glimpse into the next generation of the president's dynasty — one that now includes 11 grandchildren, ranging from a brand-new baby boy to an 18-year-old poised for adulthood.

The 11 Grandchildren of President Donald Trump

While Donald is never far from the spotlight, his ever-expanding brood of grandchildren has mostly stayed behind the scenes — save for the occasional birthday post, family photo, or emotional tribute.

His grandchildren span across four branches of his family — through Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka Trump, Eric Trump, and Tiffany Trump — and while their parents occasionally share carefully curated moments online, these children essentially live out of public view until they don't.

Donald Trump Jr.'s Children: From a Proud Father's Posts to Public Appearances

Kai Madison Trump (18) is not only the eldest grandchild of Donald, but also a legal adult. She is the eldest of the five children of Donald Trump Jr., the president's son, and his ex-wife, Vanessa Trump.

Her milestone birthday was marked by an effusive tribute from her father, Donald Jr., who wrote, "To my little Kai aka @kaitrumpgolfer I can't believe that you're 18. I love you so much and I'm so incredibly proud of the young woman you've become."

In a touching moment at the 2024 Republican National Convention, Kai described her powerful grandfather in tender, everyday terms:

"To me, he's just a normal grandpa. He gives us candy and soda when our parents aren't looking. He always wants to know how we're doing in school."

Donald Trump III (16), known as Donnie, is next in line. His 16th birthday brought another heartfelt post from his father, "Happy 16th Birthday to my biggest little man. Donnie I love you and I'm very proud of the young man you're becoming [sic]."

Ivanka Trump's Children: Public Yet Private

Arabella Rose Kushner (14) is no stranger to the public eye, having grown up in the background of her mother and father's political presence. Arabella and her siblings are the children of Ivanka and Jared Kushner.

But her appearance beside her grandfather at the U.S. Open took that visibility to a whole new level. A year earlier, Ivanka had paid tribute to Arabella's 13th birthday in a profoundly emotional post, though it wasn't widely shared.

Tiffany Trump's Newborn Brings the Trump Baby Count to Eleven

The most recent addition to the Trump family legacy is Alexander Trump Boulos, the newborn son of Tiffany Trump and Michael Boulos. The baby's birth was announced in a moving Instagram post by Tiffany herself:

"Welcome to the world our sweet baby boy, Alexander Trump Boulos. We love you beyond words! Thank you for coming into our lives! 5.15.2025 [sic] 🩵👶🏻"

Though still just days old, Alexander has already cemented his place in a family that remains at the heart of America's political — and social — imagination.

From quiet moments of childhood joy to tense public appearances, the lives of Donald's grandchildren offer a rare emotional window into a man best known for controversy and command.

They may appear in matching holiday outfits, clutched in a campaign rally hug, or, as in Arabella's recent U.S. Open moment, standing still as the weight of public attention crashes in like a tidal wave.
