Donald Trump Jr.’s rumored wedding to Bettina Anderson may now have a date.
Weeks after speculation first swirled about a possible marriage between the pair, new reports have emerged suggesting the couple could be preparing to tie the knot over Memorial Day weekend.
The rumored nuptials are moving forward despite earlier claims that the wedding had been put on hold. Details about the kind of marriage Trump Jr. and Anderson reportedly want have also surfaced, with insiders claiming it will be very different from his past relationships.
Donald Trump Jr.’s Wedding Allegedly Set For Memorial Day Weekend
Don Jr. is reportedly set to tie the knot again, nearly six years after finalizing his divorce from his first wife, Vanessa Trump.
The politician began dating socialite Bettina Anderson in mid-2024, with their relationship becoming public later that year. The couple reportedly got engaged in December, sparking widespread speculation about when they would walk down the aisle.
Now, according to reports obtained by Business Times, the pair appear to have settled on Memorial Day weekend for their wedding. The ceremony is also expected to take place in Palm Beach, with Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate reportedly serving as the venue.
For now, neither Don Jr. nor Anderson has publicly confirmed the plans, suggesting the rumored wedding may be limited to those within their close circle.
The Wedding Was Allegedly Delayed By Global Tensions
The new reports about the wedding date come weeks after it emerged that the ceremony had allegedly been placed on hold due to political tensions between the U.S. and Iran.
“They will have a celebration at the due time, at the White House. But you know they’re waiting for the right moment because of what’s happening in the world. They want to wait until that settles,” a source told the Daily Mail.
At the time, the insider also echoed reports that the couple preferred a very intimate celebration and claimed the White House was being considered as a possible location.
“They’re waiting, and so they may have a very, very intimate, extremely intimate celebration at the White House, just family members. But still, when it’s appropriate. And at the moment it’s not appropriate,” the insider added. “If everything sorts itself out, and it’s a good time to do it. But not right now.”
Why A White House Wedding May Appeal To Donald Trump Jr.
As for why the White House is reportedly being considered as a potential wedding location, its appeal may go beyond prestige.
According to a source who spoke with PEOPLE Magazine, the venue could also play a role in the couple’s future political positioning.
“This would set them up for future political roles, whether Don Jr. goes after the presidency or something else,” the source said. “This is a consideration.” Still, the White House may be an unlikely location for now, as the proposed ballroom in the recently demolished East Wing has yet to be constructed, and there is no clear timeline for its completion.
Bettina Anderson Is Reportedly Letting Don Jr. Lead In Their Marriage
Beyond speculation about the wedding date and preparations, rumors have also swirled about the kind of marriage Don Jr. and Anderson may have.
Sources claim the relationship will be quite different from Don Jr.’s past romances, as Anderson is reportedly a “traditionalist” who “does what is expected.”
“She lets him take the lead, and she does what is right,” a source said about Anderson, per PEOPLE. “They have fun together.” The insider added, “They enjoy the fanfare yet like to get away from it. Don especially can do without all the social stuff, but she knows how to wrap herself in it and do the right thing.”
Donald Trump Jr. And Anderson’s Baby Plans Emerge
As for children, the source also claimed the couple has yet to fully approach the topic of having kids of their own. However, Anderson would reportedly be comfortable if Don Jr. decided that the five children he already shares with Vanessa are enough.
“I think she would be fine with her own kids or Don’s,” the insider added. “This is not new for her. Despite the emphasis on glamor, she likes family. And Don would not be marrying someone who doesn’t want to be around his kids.”
If the couple does decide to have children, it will reportedly be a joint decision and one they would welcome, as they both “deeply value family, children, and legacy.”
