I went to school with Barron Trump, and he was my first bf. When Trump was elected, he brought the entire class to the White House. We gotta save my bae!

However, the relationship reportedly didn’t last. According to MailOnline, Maddie disclosed in the comments that the primary reason for their breakup was the distance between them, especially when Barron transferred to St. Andrews School in Potomac, Virginia, while she remained in New York. She added that Barron was ‘the nicest’ and ‘the best’ person, showing no ill will despite their separation.
Barron Trump’s education in elite schools
Barron Trump has had an elite schooling experience, with his education taking him to some of the most prestigious institutions in the United States. In 2017, Barron was attending Columbia Grammar and Preparatory School, a private school on New York’s Upper West Side, reports People.
After spending time at Columbia Grammar, Barron transferred to St. Andrews Episcopal School in Potomac, Virginia, when the Trump family moved to Washington, D.C., during his first term in office. St. Andrews is known for its academic rigor and exclusive student body. It was here that Barron completed his middle school education while living at the White House.
