Former first lady Melania Trump on Tuesday gave an update on her and former United States president Donald Trump's child Barron's new life at New York University where some of his professors are critical of his father. During an appearance on Fox News’ 'The Five', Melania said that her 18-year-old son, who kicked off classes for his first semester of college at NYU's Stern School of Business in September, is "striving" at university. "He is doing great," said Melania.

"He loves his classes and professors. He is doing well. He is striving and enjoying to be in New York City again.

The letter had accused the Republican politician of being someone who "denigrates science, peddles in lies, incites violence, attempts to delegitimise the press, politicises everything from the justice department to the CDC to the postal service, and seeks to undermine the integrity of American elections.

" Barron, the youngest among the Trump children, has garnered significant attention recently despite staying mostly out of the spotlight. In her upcoming memoir, the 54-year-old Slovenian-American former fashion model also discusse.
