PALM BEACH, FLORIDA: Kai Trump, the 17-year-old granddaughter of President-elect Donald Trump admittedly blushed while revealing the name of her celebrity crush in a recent video on her YouTube page, reported the Daily Mail.

Titled 'Get to know me better … Q&A,' the clip uploaded on Wednesday, December 18, shows Kai answering questions from her fans posed on Instagram and X (formerly Twitter) for over 15 minutes.



 

Who is Kai Trump's celebrity crush?

The episode featuring the candid Q&A was the ninth episode of Kai's podcast, and one of the first questions that the teenager was asked was the name of her celebrity crush.

The question left her visibly flustered, and she asked for her phone "to look up" the person, before stating, "Oh my God, I know. Why do I need my phone? His name is Drew Starkey. Do you guys know him — ‘Outer Banks?’"

Kai Trump shares her most embarrassing moment

In the podcast, the teenager also shared her most embarrassing moment with her grandfather, and it involved their mutual favorite sport of golf.

"I brought one of my guy friends to play golf," recalled Kai. "And he (Donald Trump) goes, 'Oh my God, look how handsome your boyfriend is,' and all that, and I got so embarrassed because he has a girlfriend and that was just awkward."

"That's my most embarrassing moment ever," she stated. "And then when he met the guy I was talking to, that was also kind of embarrassing, we don't have to talk about that."
