Who is Michael Boulos? Tiffany Trump's husband and dad to newest Trump grandchild
President Donald Trump's youngest daughter is now a mother. Tiffany Trump welcomed a baby boy on May 15.
Tiffany Trump, 31, is married to Michael Boulos, 27, a businessman of Lebanese descent whose father has been appointed to foreign affairs roles in the Trump administration.
The baby boy, named Alexander Trump Boulos, is Trump's 11th grandchild and the first for Marla Maples, Trump's second ex-wife. Tiffany Trump is the only child for Donald Trump and Maples.
What do we know about the new Trump baby's father, Michael Boulos? Here is information about Tiffany Trump's husband.
Marla Maples is now 'Gran Mar Mar.' What do the other grandkids call Trump?
Michael Boulos, the 27-year-old married to Tiffany Trump, is a businessman of Lebanese descent, whose father is a self-proclaimed billionaire.
The couple met in 2018, when he was studying project management at City University of London and Tiffany Trump was a law student at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. Both were vacationing in Santorini and met in Mykonos at Lindsay Lohan's Beach Club, according to People magazine.
Boulos and Tiffany Trump married in 2022 at Mar-a-Lago, Donald Trump's private club in Palm Beach, Florida, which has earned the nickname the "Southern White House" or "Winter White House" because of the amount of time he's spent there as president.
News reports show Boulos and Tiffany Trump have lived in Miami since Donald Trump's youngest daughter graduated from Georgetown University in 2020.
Boulos' father Massad Boulos was involved with Donald Trump's presidential campaign, trying to help curry favor among Arab Americans, according to the Detroit Free Press, part of the USA TODAY Network. The elder Boulos has been appointed as senior adviser for Africa, and senior adviser to the president on Arab and Middle Eastern affairs. A New York Times investigation did not find evidence that Boulos had amassed significant wealth from his Nigerian business endeavors, accusations that he struggled to clarify when asked by the outlet.
Tiffany Trump is the only daughter of Donald Trump and Marla Maples, who were married from 1993 to 1999. She was born in Palm Beach County, Florida, and raised in California with her mom when her parents divorced.
Over the years, however, Donald Trump's youngest daughter spent time with the extended Trump family, including her younger half-brother, Barron Trump, sole child of Donald and Melania Trump.
Unlike her older half-siblings − Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka Trump and Eric Trump − Tiffany Trump has largely stayed out of the political arena during her father's nearly 10 years in the spotlight.
Like her father, Tiffany Trump attended the University of Pennsylvania and graduated in 2016 with a bachelor's degree in sociology. After graduation, she continued her studies at Georgetown Law School in Washington, D.C.
Tiffany Trump and her husband Michael Boulos live fairly close to the rest of the Trump family in South Florida. Marla Maples moved back to Palm Beach County, Florida, in 2022.

US growth likely to slow to 1.6% this year, hobbled by Trump's trade wars, OECD says
WASHINGTON — U.S. economic growth will slow to 1.6% this year from 2.8% last year as President Donald Trump's erratic trade wars disrupt global commerce, drive up costs and leave businesses and consumers paralyzed by uncertainty. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development forecast Tuesday that the U.S. economy — the world's largest — will slow further to just 1.5% in 2026. Trump's policies have raised average U.S. tariff rates from around 2.5% when he returned to the White House to 15.4%, highest since 1938, according to the OECD. Tariffs raise costs for consumers and American manufacturers that rely on imported raw materials and components.

The Paris-based organization slashed its global forecasts for the second time this year, citing the impact of the American president's tariff onslaught.
