‘News to me’: Trump Jr pushes back on wedding delay rumors with Bettina Anderson
WASHINGTON, DC: Donald Trump Jr. has pushed back against rumors claiming he postponed his wedding to fiance Bettina Anderson, calling the reports inaccurate and saying he was unaware of any such change in plans.

The rumors gained traction following claims that the couple had decided to postpone their wedding due to concerns about public perception during a time of international conflict.

An unnamed source had been quoted as saying the couple wanted to be mindful of the timing and avoid criticism over holding a high-profile event. The report also claimed that political considerations played a role in delaying any formal wedding plans.
