Trump said he may try to attend the small Bahamas wedding, but Iran and other duties could keep him away.
- On Thursday, President Donald Trump said he might skip his son Donald Trump Jr.'s wedding in the Bahamas this weekend, citing "a thing called Iran" and competing national security concerns.
- Donald Trump Jr. and Bettina Anderson scaled back plans from a lavish Washington event to an intimate Bahamas gathering to avoid negative optics amid ongoing geopolitical tensions.
- Trump noted the difficulty, stating "That's one I can't win on. If I don't attend, I get killed by the fake news, of course." He confirmed the event will be "just a small, little, private affair."
- Bettina Anderson, a Palm Beach-based executive, has integrated into the Trump family through an enchanted garden-themed bridal shower at Mar-a-Lago attended by family members, signaling her growing prominence.
- The couple, who began dating in 2024 and became engaged in late 2025, reportedly delayed initial plans due to Middle East tensions. Trump Jr., 47, shares five children from his previous marriage to Vanessa Trump.
