Tiffany Ariana Trump (born October 13, 1993) is an American Internet personality and model. She is the daughter of the U.S. president, Donald Trump, and his second wife, Marla Maples.

Early life and education[edit]

Tiffany Trump was born on October 13, 1993, at St. Mary's Medical Center in West Palm Beach, Florida.[3][4][5] She is the only child of Marla Maples and her father is Donald Trump, whom Maples married in December of 1993.[6] She was named after Tiffany & Company (Trump had purchased the air rights above the Fifth Avenue jewelry store in the 1980s in order to build Trump Tower).[7] Trump divorced Maples in 1999. Tiffany was raised by her mother in California, where she lived until graduation from high school.[8]

She was educated at Viewpoint School in Calabasas, California.[9] She is a 2016 graduate of the University of Pennsylvania, where she double-majored in sociology and urban studies,[10] and was a member of the Kappa Alpha Theta sorority.[11]

Career[edit]

In 2014, while attending the University of Pennsylvania, Trump released a music single called "Like a Bird". She later told Oprah Winfrey[12] that she was evaluating whether to take her music career "to the next level as a professional".[13] Trump has also worked as an intern at Vogue and modeled for a 2016 Andrew Warren fashion show during New York Fashion Week.[14]

2016 presidential campaign[edit]

Trump voted in New York as a member of the Republican Party.[15] During the 2016 presidential election, she joined her father and other members of the Trump family at campaign appearances.[16] She spoke at the 2016 Republican National Convention on the second night of the convention.[17][18] During her speech, Tiffany made light of her unfamiliarity with the situation, stating: "Please excuse me if I'm a little nervous. When I graduated college a couple of months ago, I never expected to be here tonight addressing the nation. I've given a few speeches in front of classrooms and students, but never in an arena with more than 10 million people watching."[19]

Social media[edit]

Trump is a frequent poster to Instagram, where, as of 2017, she had more than 715,000 followers.[20] Her Instagram posts frequently include photographs of her with friends and fellow heirs and heiresses including Kyra Kennedy, daughter of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.; Gaïa Matisse, great-great-granddaughter of artist Henri Matisse; and E.J. Johnson, son of Magic Johnson. The group, whose posed photos are edited by Andrew Warren, has been named the "rich kids of Instagram" by the New York Post and the "Snap Pack" by The New York Times and New York magazine.[10][21][22][23]
