It looks like there’s some happy news for the Trump family! Former President Donald Trump took a moment during a campaign stop at the Detroit Economic Club to share a big family announcement: his youngest daughter, Tiffany Trump, is expecting her first child with her husband, Michael Boulos. In classic Trump style, the news was shared casually in the middle of his speech, catching more than a few people off guard.
While acknowledging the various attendees at the event, Trump pointed out Dr. Massad Boulos, Michael’s father, in the crowd. With a smile, he added, “He happens to be the father of Tiffany’s husband, Michael, who’s a very exceptional young guy. And she’s [Tiffany] an exceptional young woman. And she’s going to have a baby.” He added, “So that’s nice,” in his characteristic way, making it sound almost like he was giving a shout-out to a winning sports team.

Tiffany Trump, who is the daughter of Donald Trump and his second wife, Marla Maples, has yet to make any public announcement herself. However, a spokesperson confirmed the news to People magazine, putting to rest any doubts.
Fans of the family have followed Tiffany and Michael’s relationship from the time they announced their engagement in January 2021, right at the close of Trump’s presidency. The engagement post from Tiffany was filled with joy, saying, “Feeling blessed and excited for the next chapter!”
That chapter continued with a beautiful wedding at Mar-a-Lago in 2022. The ceremony was a high-profile affair, befitting the daughter of a former president and her husband, a successful Lebanese American businessman. Now, with this latest announcement, Tiffany and Michael are stepping into a new chapter as parents.

Donald Trump, who is already a doting grandfather to his other grandchildren, seems eager to add another to the bunch. Tiffany’s baby will join a big Trump family tree, which includes Ivanka and Jared Kushner’s three kids—Arabella, Joseph Frederick, and Theodore James—along with Donald Jr.’s children, Kai, Chloe, Tristan, and Spencer. Eric Trump and Lara Trump also contributed to the growing crew with their two kids, Eric and Carolina.
And the Trump grandchildren seem to have a special relationship with their grandpa. At the 2024 Republican National Convention, Kai Trump, Donald Jr.’s daughter, shared a sweet, down-to-earth view of her famous grandfather. “To me, he’s just a normal grandpa,” she said. “He gives us candy and soda when our parents are not looking. He always wants to know how we’re doing in school. When I made the high honor roll, he printed it out to show his friends how proud he was of me.”
With all the media noise surrounding the former president’s political campaigns and his bid to return to the White House, it’s moments like these that offer a glimpse of the personal side of Trump. For all the political battles and headline-grabbing sound bites, there’s clearly a side of him that takes pride in being a grandfather. Tiffany and Michael’s upcoming addition is sure to be another point of pride for Trump, who’s more than happy to share a bit of family joy with his supporters, even when the spotlight is on the campaign trail.
