Melania Trump's rare teenage photos show her striking resemblance to son Barron
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Barron Trump, the youngest son of former President Donald Trump with his wife Melania, apparently resembles his mother at a younger age more than his father, a Nicki Swift article reported on Saturday, September 28.
The assumption is based on some rare teenage photographs of the former first lady, which the photographer who had discovered her as a model in her early years shared with Today back in 2017.
This contrasts with Melania's previous remarks, where she referred to Barron as a "Mini Donald," claiming that he closely resembles his father, the GOP nominee.
Melania Trumps father was a member of Yugoslavia's communist party. They even got to travel the world. So his standing was pretty high.

Barron Trump mirrors Melania Trump's youthful features and style
Barron Trump shares several similarities with his mother Melania Trump, including soft features, tone, and brow shape, according to the publication.
In the previously released black and white photographs, 16-year-old Melania had slightly more rounded features and minimal makeup, making the resemblance more noticeable.
The mother and son share nearly identical eyes, with the same shape and shade of blue. As a teenager, Melania had thick, enviable eyebrows, and her hair more closely matched Barron's brown than Donald Trump's blond locks.
Donald Trump previously acknowledged Barron Trump's resemblance to Melania
While Donald Trump is extremely fond of his son Barron Trump and likely enjoys taking credit for his looks, he has also noted how much his youngest son resembles his wife, Melania Trump.
Back in 2006 when Barron was an infant, the controversial business tycoon had shared in an interview with The Palm Beach Post, "He (Barron) looks more like Melania. And he's like her in temperament. Very calm. Which is not easy when you're around me."
Barron also shows a noticeable resemblance to the former president. He shares Trump's facial structure, characterized by larger eyes and a smaller mouth.
When compared to older images of the GOP nominee, the current NYU student could easily be mistaken for a lookalike, according to Nicki Swift.
"The baby looks like Donald," Melania had said of Barron in 2006, adding, "He has my eyes, and beautiful brown hair."
