Kai Trump Gives Fans a Look Inside Her High School Graduation With New Photos and Video
Donald Trump's granddaughter just graduated from high school, and Kai Trump is sharing pics of the major milestone. Just one day after her mother, Vanessa Trump, revealed a breast cancer diagnosis, Kai posted heartwarming mommy-daughter photos of the pair and a few other stellar snapshots of her graduation day.
Along with the pics, the vlogger (who has well over one million subscribers) also posted a graduation video on YouTube. The 30-plus-minute clip starts the day before, with Kai explaining, "I'm graduating tomorrow. Definitely knew I was going to graduate, but I can't believe it's actually here." She continued, "It's kind of a big milestone. My birthday was two days ago, turned 19."
What did the President's daughter do on the day before graduation? Golf at Trump Jupiter, of course. Kai is an avid golfer who will join the University of Miami's women's team this fall and shows off her skills in the clip.
After getting in a workout and eating lunch with fellow golfer Allan Kournikova (yes, he's the younger brother of tennis star Anna Kournikova) she runs into her own brother, Tristan Trump. When the 14-year-old is asked if he's proud of his sister, he answers with a simple, "Yeah." But when she asks, "Did you think I would graduate?" he responds with a typical teenage answer: "Neh."
Fast-forward to graduation day, and Kai takes fans behind the scenes as she gets her hair done for the big event with her mom, Vanessa. Even though Vanessa is dealing with her own health crisis, she's still smiling ear-to-ear as she gushes, "I can't believe she's graduating today. As they get older, we get older. But it's just amazing how I can still remember bringing her to the young two's program. And then now here she is graduating at 19, going off to college."
Vanessa continues, "Thank god she's not too far away. She's close by. But it's very exciting. I'm very proud of her. I couldn't be more proud." Trump also shares a bit about their "mother-daughter hair and makeup time," saying, "These are photos and videos you're going to have forever. Might as well get it all dolled up here." On a more serious note, Vanessa adds, of Kai, "You couldn't ask for a better role model. She has been such a great guidance to her younger siblings, so I'm truly blessed."
The camera pans back to Kai, who talks about what she'll do after graduation. Her immediate plans include dinner at her "favorite restaurant," Blackbird. After a few other stops, the Trumps head home for Kai to get her makeup done and then…it's off to graduation!
As they call Kai's name to walk across the stage and accept her diploma, viewers can see a few members of her famous family in the audience. Along with mom, Vanessa, dad Donald Trump Jr., his fiancée Bettina Anderson, and aunt Tiffany Trump all applaud the new grad. While there were reports that Vanessa's beau, Tiger Woods, was at the ceremony, Kai does not show the pro golfer in the video or her photos.
