Which celebrity kids with a Florida tie graduated class of 2025? List of nepo baby graduates
Congratulations, class of 2025! It's graduation season for high school and college students, and for the celebrity kids listed below, the spotlight is on them — rather than their famous family members. We've compiled a Florida list of celebrity children, sometimes referred to as 'nepo babies' (short for nepotism) in pop culture, who graduated class of 2025. We also listed some famous students from Florida and their respective graduation years. Sam Alexis Woods, the daughter of golf legend Tiger Woods and former model Elin Nordegren, graduated May 16, 2025, from the Benjamin School in Palm Beach Gardens in Palm Beach County, Florida. Other famous students at the Benjamin School include her younger brother, rising junior Charlie Woods, and Kai Madison Trump, the oldest granddaughter of President Donald Trump and daughter of Vanessa Trump, whom Tiger Woods is currently dating. In March 2025, Tiger Woods made headlines for being in the stands cheering for daughter Sam at her state championship soccer match. Photos and video clips of a certified "greatest of all time" athlete rooting for his kid made the rounds on TikTok, Instagram and other social media platforms. The GOAT went viral for being a supportive dad. In news interviews, Sam Woods has mentioned avoiding a professional career in golf because as a child, the tournaments meant long absences away from her father. But as the daughter of a GOAT, Sam Woods made her own mark as an athlete: In addition to track and field, Sam Woods was a member of the Benjamin School Buccaneers soccer team. Her younger brother, Charlie Woods, however, is starting to make a name for himself in golf. In fall 2025, Tiger Woods' oldest child heads to Stanford University. The next major milestone − for Sam Woods and for her famous parents? Turning 18 on June 18, 2025. Nick Roker, youngest son of Al Roker and Deborah Roberts, graduated from Landmark College in Putney, Vermont, on May 17, 2025. It was a double graduation weekend for the celebrity meteorologist, who also gave a commencement address to Siena College's class of 2025 on May 18 in Siena, New York. Al Roker is the longtime chief meteorologist and 'Today' show co-host on NBC, and Roberts is a senior national affairs correspondent for ABC News. From 1987 to 1990, Roberts worked at WFTV Channel 9 in Orlando, Florida, covering NASA and Kennedy Space Center as a reporter before becoming weekend news co-anchor at the station. She also was co-anchor of the ABC News show '20/20' and previously worked at NBC News and "Dateline NBC.' Al Roker and Deborah Roberts have been married since 1995. Last month, Al Roker shared his excitement about his son's graduation with his Instagram followers: 'Three years ago, we dropped him off as a first-year college student. Today @nickroker155 has his #associatesdegree in #communications and we could not be prouder of how hard he has worked and is determined to get his #bachelorsdegree' In 2019, the proud dad said during a "Today" show segment that Nick Roker has 'special needs.' He and Deborah Roberts have been vocal advocates for their son. The pair also are parents to daughter Leila, and Courtney, Al Roker's daughter from a previous marriage. Hunter Fieri, eldest son of Guy Fieri, longtime Food Network star and culinary icon, and Lori Fieri graduated May 8, 2025, with a master's degree in business administration (or MBA) from the University of Miami in Miami, Florida. Over the years, he's appeared on TV with his famous father, like Food Network's "Tournament of Champions," making a name for himself in the culinary world. In the "Hunter Fieri graduation" Instagram video that Guy Fieri posted to his social media networks, the proud father can be heard cheering when his son walked on stage to collect his diploma. Hunter Fieri proudly displayed the "hand gesture" for the University of Miami in the Instagram Reel, too, sparking cheers from the crowd. 'I have have so many blessings in my life, but the biggest and most important always revolve around my family,' the host of Food Network's longtime show "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives" wrote on Instagram, tagging his three boys, one of which is his nephew, Jules Fieri, whom he's raising. 'Hard work and determination! Working on Hunt Ryde Wine company, shooting multiple, being on the road, and getting an MBA. The road to success!! So proud of you, Hunter." Some famous people responded to Guy Fieri's Instagram post, including Sammy Hagar, Iron Chef Alex Guarnaschelli and Iron Chef Michael Symon. Guy Fieri moved to Florida in 2021, buying a home in Lake Worth Beach and another on Singer Island in Palm Beach County. His Lake Worth Beach property, which he has referred to as the "Flavortown Mansion,' was recently sold to Las Vegas restaurateurs, but he still has the Singer Island home. Up next for Hunter Fieri? He will marry his fiancee Tara Bernstein the weekend of June 13, 2025, at his father's ranch in California. Jules Fieri, nephew of Food Network star Guy Fieri ("Guy's Grocery Games," "Tournament of Champions") and his wife, Lori Fieri, graduated from college on May 17, 2025. He received a master's degree in entertainment law from Loyola Law School in Los Angeles, California. 'I could not be more proud of my nephew, @jfieri He has worked full time as an agent in the music industry while attending law school at night for the last 2 years. Wow! Hard work, dedication, perseverance and determination are just few words that represent my amazing nephew CONGRATULATIONS JULES!!!' Bryce Maximus James, youngest son of LeBron James, who played four seasons with the Miami Heat, and wife Savannah James, graduated May 22, 2025, from Sierra Canyon High School in Los Angeles, California. Lebron James won two NBA championships and two NBA MVP awards when he played for the Heat. At the time, he lived in Coconut Grove, a neighborhood in Miami, Florida, buying a home there in 2010. Savannah James has been with her husband since high school — the couple married in 2013. Together, they have three children — LeBron "Bronny" James, who plays for the L.A. Lakers, Bryce James and Zhuri James. Like his brother Bronny, Bryce James played basketball and graduated from Sierra Canyon High School. Both of the James' boys are playing basketball in college. His parents said he'll attend the University of Arizona in fall 2025. Proud mom Savannah James posted a note May 23, 2025, to her social media followers : 'Yesterday we celebrated @_justbryce as he walks into a new chapter of life!! So proud of you and all the hard work you've done to get to this point. This is only the beginning! Keep striving to be the absolute best version of you! Love you more than words can explain and so excited to see what the future has for you!! I love you Stink!!" Barron Trump, the youngest son of President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump, will be a sophomore at New York University's Stern School of Business in fall 2025. He started classes in September 2024 and is projected to graduate with the class of 2028. Barron Trump graduated high school May 17, 2024, from Oxbridge Academy near West Palm Beach, Florida. Though he has a large family, the only family members who attended his graduation were Donald and Melania Trump and her father, Viktor Knavs. At 18 years old, Kai Trump is the oldest of Donald Trump's 11 grandchildren and just over a year younger than her uncle Barron Trump. Her parents are Donald Trump Jr. and ex-wife Vanessa Trump, who is currently dating Tiger Woods. Kai Trump shares her grandfather's love of golf. She plays competitively with The Benjamin School's girls' team and in August 2024, announced her commitment to stay in Florida for college and play golf at the University of Miami after she graduates in class of 2026. 'I am beyond excited to announce my verbal commitment to the University of Miami,' Kai wrote in an August 18, 2024, Instagram post. 'I would like to thank my mom, Vanessa, and my dad, Don, for always supporting me through my journey. I would also like to thank my great team for getting me to this point. I would like to thank my grandpa for giving me access to great courses and tremendous support… I am super excited to be a cane and represent the University of Miami. Gooo Canes!' Charlie Axel Woods, son of Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren and younger brother of Sam Alexis Woods, is a rising junior at the Benjamin School in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. Born Feb. 8, 2009, in Florida, Charlie Woods helped his varsity golf team win a state title when he was a freshman. Like his father, Charlie Woods is making a name for himself in golf. He's projected to graduate in the class of 2027. Contributing: Lianna Norman, USA TODAY Network Sangalang is a lead digital producer for USA TODAY Network.

Scottie Scheffler's son suffers diaper malfunction as dad celebrates PGA Tour win
After winning the Memorial Tournament on Sunday, June 1, Scottie Scheffler celebrated with his family. Watching the 28-year-old shoot 10-under par was his wife, Meredith Scheffler, and their son, 1-year-old Bennett. After being declared the victor, Scottie grabbed his son and hugged his wife. And in the midst of all the celebratory excitement, Bennett suffered a diaper malfunction and cameras captured the aftermath. As Meredith and Bennett met up with Scottie, Meredith warned her husband, video shared by CBS Sports shows. 'He's got poop all over his back so be prepared — sorry,' Meredith said as she handed Bennett to Scottie. 'That'll happen,' the proud dad replied. 'He had so much fun watching you!' Meredith added, according to Today. Fans of the Scheffler family empathized with the parents, calling Scottie's response to the blowout 'the daddest response.' One X, formerly known as Twitter, user wrote, 'We've all been there….as I've said for forty years, 'There is nothing more humbling than being a parent.'' 'That is the absolute best,' another X user wrote. 'Real stuff right there!' 'Honestly, I love it. This is what real life is—messy, hilarious, and completely grounding. The big wins are fun, sure. But the best parts are the quiet ones. The ordinary ones. Where no one's cheering, and you're still all in!' added another. Scottie got emotional talking about his wife and son with Golf on CBS reporter Amanda Balionis. 'Yeah, you're really trying to make me emotional now. My wife is my biggest supporter,' Scheffler said as tears formed in his eyes while he held their son. 'She's my best friend. This is our life out here on the road, and it's been a lot of fun. We've had some special memories at this tournament, and yeah, I definitely couldn't do it without her.' This was Scottie's third win in four starts. He won the CJ CUP at the beginning of May and the PGA Championship two weeks later.

Olympian Mary Lou Retton Charged With DUI in West Virginia Hometown
Olympic gymnast Mary Lou Retton was charged with a misdemeanor after being arrested for driving under the influence (DUI) in Fairmont, West Virginia, her hometown. The American athletic icon was stopped by police on May 17 after it was reported that a person in a Porsche was driving erratically. An FST, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, includes a horizontal gaze eye exam, a one-leg stand, and walk-and-turn, which aim to determine if a person has been drinking alcohol. Retton refused a roadside breath and blood test. Law enforcement alleged that they saw a container of wine in the passenger seat, according to the criminal complaint. She posted a $1,500 bond under her married name Mary Retton-Kelly. Retton has been married to Shannon Kelly since 1990. Kelly is a former University of Texas quarterback and real estate developer. Together, they have four adult daughters named Shayla, McKenna, Skyla, and Emma. Related Stories 1/8/2024 10/31/2023 Her attorney Edmund Rollo did not respond to requests for comment by publication time. Retton is known for being the first American female gymnast to win in the Olympics. In 1984 in Los Angeles, she won one gold, two silver, and two bronze medals at just 16 years old. As previously reported in On NBC's 'Today' show, at the time, Retton said that while wearing a breathing tube pumping oxygen through her nose that she was sent home with a pneumonia diagnosis after a few days in a Texas hospital but had an immediate setback that required her to be put in intensive care in October. 'This is serious and this is life,' she said. 'And I am so grateful to be here. I am blessed to be here. Because there was a time when they were about to put me on life support.' Retton's oldest daughter, Shayla Kelley Schrepfer, said she was informed that it was uncertain if her mother would survive. 'It was crazy,' Schrepfer added. The Associated Press contributed to this report.
