The internet has plans for Barron Trump, son of President Donald Trump, as he becomes New York University's most eligible bachelor, The List reported. Some are suggesting he pair up with Princess Leonor of Spain.
When asked about how his son was doing at NYU, President Trump said that he was popular with the ladies but that he never had a relationship. Now, some are trying to play matchmaker for the 18-year-old.
"Barron Trump and the Princess of Spain Leonor are a match made in heaven. Same age, no previous relationships, good values, good looking and with a powerful family. Prove me wrong," conservative influencer Ada Llunch posted to X, formerly Twitter, with a side by side photos of Barron and the princess.

Barron and Princess Leonor of Spain are both royals of a sort and are equals in status, good looks, and other aspects. "Same age, no previous relationships, good values, good looking and with a powerful family," one user to X wrote.
Another user noted that they would be the next power couple. "If we can't make the Trumps King of America, might as well make Barron the King of Spain," the user said.
In reality, this would not work as Barron would not be conferred a title since he would outrank the princess. Also, there's the matter of royal duties to consider if Princess Leonor of Spain were to become queen.
"The Queen consort, or the consort of the Queen, may not assume any constitutional functions, except in accordance with the provisions for the Regency," the Spanish government explains on its website. Of course, this is a moot point as the princess is rumored to already be paired up with Gabriel Giacomelli.
The tabloid rumor is that Princess Leonor of Spain met Giacomelli, the son of a wealthy New York family, at boarding school. However, other news outlets say that they are just friends which means it's still a possibility for the princess and Barron if internet matchmakers get their way.
Although the celebrity gossip mill is busy finding a wife for Barron, the reality is that his life as the son of a president complicates matters. Even while attending classes at NYU, the younger Trump is followed by Secret Service for his own protection, which certainly puts a damper on romantic pursuit.
Still, a devoted son like Barron Trump will likley turn to his mother, first lady Melania Trump, for her guidance and perspective. She's well known as a doting mother and has herself navigated fame, fortune, and in later life, the world of politics.
"She is and has been a good sounding board for him. She tries to normalize his life. If that is even possible," someone close to the family shared with People.
When Barron decides to settle down and get married, it will no doubt have to be with someone his mother approves of first. The Trump family is very close, and the first lady has always been a hands-on mother even as Barron grows into adulthood.
Barron is a young, handsome man with a bright future. Perhaps he will settle down young and start a family sooner rather than later, but for now he remains a sought-after suitor.
