Boulos grew up in Lagos, Nigeria, where his family owns the automotive conglomerate SCOA Nigeria. He was studying project management at City, University of London, when he met Tiffany, then a law student at Georgetown, on vacation in Mykonos.

"I wasn't there when they met," Lohan told People magazine at the premiere party for her MTV series, "Lindsay Lohan's Beach Club," in 2019, adding that she knew both Tiffany Trump and Boulos but didn't know exactly how they met.

Boulos joined Tiffany Trump in the front row of the Taoray Wang show during New York Fashion Week.

"Tiffany is happy she has so far been able to keep things with Michael under the radar," an unnamed source told Page Six. "But she introduced him to her family at Thanksgiving, and he comes across as a very intelligent young man from a great family. There was no mention of the president's unfortunate comment about African nations."

In January 2018, Donald Trump reportedly referred to African nations and Haiti using an expletive during a meeting with lawmakers. He denied the reports, writing on X that the language he used was "tough" but that the widely reported remark was "not the language used."

Trump posted an Instagram photo of her and Boulos in the Red Room of the White House at Christmastime. Boulos also shared a photo with her at a White House Christmas party, captioned, "Christmas vibes are the best vibes," in a post that no longer appears on his page.

As they had the year before, Tiffany Trump and Boulos sat in the front row of the Taoray Wang show.

Tiffany Trump shared a photo of herself and Boulos, as well as snapshots with her father, Donald Trump Jr., and Kimberly Guilfoyle, on Instagram. The photos are no longer available on her Instagram page.

Public records showed that the three-night trip to France, during which the couple stayed at the Marriott Jesta Fontainebleau hotel, cost taxpayers at least $20,000, Quartz reported.

"For operational security reasons, the Secret Service cannot discuss specifically nor in general terms the means, methods, resources, costs, or numbers we utilize to carry out our protective responsibilities," a Secret Service spokesperson told Quartz.

"With every ounce of heart and mind, and sweat and soul, we're going to keep making America great again, and then we will indeed keep America great," Donald Trump said in his speech. "I will keep it so great. Better than ever before. We're going to keep it better than ever before. And that is why tonight, I stand before you to officially launch my campaign for a second term as president of the United States."

"Happy Birthday, @michaelboulos," she captioned a photo of her and Boulos. "You fill my life with so much joy, kindness and laughter! Thank you for always putting a smile on my face!"

Boulos sat behind Tiffany, who was seated beside Donald Trump Jr. and Kimberly Guilfoyle.

How the turkey pardoning tradition started is still a bit of a mystery, but the White House traces it all the way back to President Abraham Lincoln in 1863.

Trump's other children were in attendance, as well as his then-lawyer Rudy Giuliani.

They were joined by Eric Trump and Lara Trump.

Robert Trump died on August 15, 2020, at the age of 71.

"He was not just my brother, he was my best friend," Donald Trump said in a statement. "He will be greatly missed, but we will meet again. His memory will live on in my heart forever. Robert, I love you. Rest in peace."

Tiffany Trump spoke on the second night of the RNC in support of her father and mentioned her recent graduation from Georgetown Law School.

"Like so many students across the world, I graduated from law school during the pandemic," she said. "Our generation is unified in facing the future in uncertain times. And many of us are considering what kind of country we want to live in. As a recent graduate, I can relate to so many of you who might be looking for a job. My father built a thriving economy once and believe me, he will do it again."

The debate featured plexiglass barriers between the candidates to prevent the spread of COVID-19 and a mute button to prevent them from talking over each other.

The Trumps watched election results in the East Room of the White House.

The day before Biden's inauguration, Tiffany Trump shared an Instagram photo of her and Boulos standing in the White House Colonnade.

"It has been an honor to celebrate many milestones, historic occasions and create memories with my family here at the White House, none more special than my engagement to my amazing fiancé Michael!" she wrote. "Feeling blessed and excited for the next chapter!"

Boulos also announced their engagement on Instagram, writing, "Got engaged to the love of my life! Looking forward to our next chapter together."

Boulos proposed in the White House Rose Garden with a diamond ring worth $1.2 million, People magazine reported.

Tiffany Trump and Boulos vacationed in Mykonos, where their relationship began, over the summer.

Page Six reported that Donald Trump and his ex-wife, Tiffany's mother Marla Maples, would host the wedding at Mar-a-Lago with over 500 people expected to attend.

Days before the wedding, Mar-a-Lago and its surrounding coastal residential areas were under mandatory evacuation orders because of the storm.

A Mar-a-Lago employee confirmed to Business Insider that the club had reopened on Friday, November 11, just in time for Trump and Boulos' welcome dinner.

Tiffany Trump wore a sparkling long-sleeved wedding dress from Lebanese fashion designer Elie Saab, a likely nod to Boulos' Lebanese heritage. The couple exchanged vows under a gazebo decorated with cascading bouquets of pastel-colored flowers.

In an Instagram post, Tiffany Trump described the wedding as "The most magical day."

Donald Trump was found guilty on all 34 felony counts of falsifying business records to cover up a $130,000 hush-money payment to adult film actor Stormy Daniels ahead of the 2016 election. The former president denies ever having sex with Daniels and has called the trial a "witch hunt."

Unlike in 2020, Tiffany Trump did not speak at the 2024 Republican National Convention.

Speaking to a crowd at the Detroit Economic Club, Donald Trump shared the news while acknowledging the presence of Michael Boulos' father, businessman Massad Boulos, at the event.

"He happens to be the father of Tiffany's husband Michael, who's a very exceptional young guy, and she's an exceptional young woman," he said. "And she's going to have a baby, so that's nice."

Tiffany Trump delivered a rare speech in Reading, Pennsylvania, telling the crowd, "Hello, we love you, we support you, and my father's here fighting for you and he's never gonna let you down, so please vote. Let's get this country back on track."

Tiffany Trump and Boulos joined other Trump family members and associates at the campaign's election night watch party in West Palm Beach, Florida.

In a Truth Social post, Donald Trump described Massad Boulos as "an accomplished lawyer and a highly respected leader in the business world."

"He has been a longtime proponent of Republican and Conservative values, an asset to my Campaign, and was instrumental in building tremendous new coalitions with the Arab American Community," he wrote in part.

Trump's description of Massad Boulos as an "accomplished lawyer" may not be accurate. Although Massad Boulos listed a law degree from Texas Southern University on his LinkedIn profile, a Business Insider investigation found that he does not appear to be licensed to practice law in any of the countries where he's lived.

Massad Boulos was also widely reported to be the billionaire owner of Boulos Enterprises and told The New York Times in December that his company was worth billions. However, Boulos Enterprises is owned by a different Boulos family. The small automotive company Massad Boulos runs, SCOA Nigeria, is worth about $865,000.

Massad Boulos later told The New York Times that he was referring to his father-in-law's companies when asked about his business. Massad Boulos' wife, Sarah Fadoul Boulos, is the daughter of wealthy Lebanese businessman Michel Zouhair Fadoul, who runs The Fadoul Group's conglomerate.

In an email to Business Insider, Trump spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt called media reports examining Boulos' credentials "fake news."

"The truth is Mr. Boulos is a highly respected businessman who has proudly served as the CEO of some of his family's group of companies based in West Africa for more than 27 years, and his family has employed tens of thousands of people around the globe," Leavitt said.

During Donald Trump's first term, Melania Trump fulfilled first lady duties such as planning state dinners, promoting children's well-being with her "Be Best" campaign, and decorating the White House for Christmas.

Still, she was also known to break White House tradition and defy expectations of the role.

She made infrequent appearances with her husband on the 2024 campaign trail and declined Jill Biden's invitation to meet at the White House after the election, indicating that she will likely play by her own rules during Trump's second term.

CNN reported that Melania Trump is "unlikely" to live at the White House full-time.

The Office of Melania Trump did not respond to a request for comment.

Cofounded by former Bank of America executive Omeed Malik, 1789 Capital defines itself as "anti-ESG," which stands for environmental, social, and governance. Instead, it focuses on "EIG," or entrepreneurship, innovation, and growth.

The VC firm has funded former Fox News host Tucker Carlson's independent media company, among other ventures, Business Insider previously reported. Trump Jr. is joining the firm as a partner.

Representatives for Trump Jr. did not respond to a request for comment.

Guilfoyle advised Donald Trump's 2020 campaign and made numerous appearances at rallies and events in support of his 2024 run. She also served on the 2024 RNC platform committee.

Trump Jr. and Guilfoyle have reportedly broken off their engagement after six years of dating, but Guilfoyle will remain in the Trump orbit as ambassador to Greece in Donald Trump's second White House administration.

"For many years, Kimberly has been a close friend and ally," Donald Trump wrote on Truth Social. "Her extensive experience and leadership in law, media, and politics along with her sharp intellect make her supremely qualified to represent the United States, and safeguard its interests abroad."

Representatives for Guilfoyle did not respond to a request for comment.

When Donald Trump launched his 2024 campaign, Ivanka Trump announced that she was stepping back from politics.

"I love my father very much," she said in a statement shared on social media. "This time around, I am choosing to prioritize my children and the private life we are creating as a family. I do not plan to be involved in politics. While I will always love and support my father, going forward, I will do so outside the political arena."

She made a few appearances with her father during the campaign but largely returned to her life as a socialite. In a July interview on the "Lex Fridman Podcast," Ivanka Trump reiterated that she did not plan to return to politics, calling it "a rough, rough business" that is "at odds with what feels good for me as a human being."

Representatives for the Trump transition team did not respond to a request for comment.

Kushner told Axios in February that he would not rejoin the Trump administration as a senior advisor for a second term, but CNN and the Israeli newspaper Israel Hayom reported that he would serve as an unofficial advisor, building on the relationships he formed with leaders in the Middle East while brokering the Abraham Accords.

Representatives for Kushner did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

In a Truth Social post, Donald Trump called Charles Kushner "a tremendous business leader, philanthropist, & dealmaker, who will be a strong advocate representing our Country & interests."

Donald Trump pardoned Kushner, a billionaire real-estate developer who pleaded guilty to tax evasion and witness tampering in 2004, during his first term. Kushner donated $1 million to Donald Trump's super PAC in 2023.

Eric Trump has served as an advisor throughout Donald Trump's presidential runs, frequently appearing at rallies and on cable news. He remains the executive vice president of the Trump Organization, overseeing the Trump family's luxury real-estate portfolio as he did during Donald Trump's first term.

New York Attorney General Letitia James led a yearslong investigation into allegations of fraud at the Trump Organization. In February, the civil fraud case resulted in a $364 million penalty against Donald Trump and other company leaders. The Trump Organization denied any wrongdoing and appealed the verdict.

The Trump Organization did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Lara Trump was voted cochair of the Republican National Committee in March after receiving Donald Trump's endorsement.

She shared the job with Michael Whatley, a Trump loyalist and former North Carolina's GOP chair. Together, Lara Trump and Whatley oversaw the RNC's platform and funds, further cementing Donald Trump's hold over the Republican Party.

Some GOP members, including Alabama Sen. Katie Britt, Florida Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, and Florida Sen. Rick Scott, called on DeSantis to appoint Lara Trump to the Senate seat that Sen. Marco Rubio will vacate if he is confirmed as secretary of state.

In December, Lara Trump stepped down as RNC cochair and wrote on X that she'd decided to withdraw her name from consideration for the US Senate, but teased a forthcoming "big announcement."

Representatives for the Republican National Committee and Lara Trump did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Tiffany Trump, a Georgetown Law School graduate, has attended a few campaign events and shared occasional supportive messages and videos on social media but has never been active in politics.

Unlike in 2016 and 2020, she did not speak at the 2024 Republican National Convention.

She and her husband, Michael Boulos, are expecting their first baby.

Representatives for the Trump transition team did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Boulos joined Tiffany Trump at the Republican National Convention and a few Trump campaign rallies in the days leading up to the election, but has not otherwise been involved in politics.

Massad Boulos, a Lebanese-American businessman who owns an automotive company in Nigeria, campaigned with Donald Trump in Michigan ahead of the 2024 election in an effort to reach Arab-American voters.

In a Truth Social post, Donald Trump called Boulos "an accomplished lawyer and a highly respected leader in the business world" and said he was "instrumental in building tremendous new coalitions with the Arab American Community" during the campaign.

While Boulos was widely reported to be the billionaire owner of the Nigerian company Boulos Enterprises, it is owned by a different Boulos family.

Boulos previously told The New York Times that his company, SCOA Nigeria, was worth billions. It's actually worth about $865,000, the Times reported. Boulos later said that he was referring to his father-in-law's business ventures — his wife's father, Michel Zouhair Fadoul, is a wealthy Lebanese businessman who runs The Fadoul Group.

There's also no proof that Boulos is an "accomplished lawyer" as Donald Trump described him. A Business Insider investigation found that while Boulos listed a law degree on his LinkedIn profile, he does not appear to be licensed to practice law in any of the countries where he's lived.

"The truth is Mr. Boulos is a highly respected businessman who has proudly served as the CEO of some of his family's group of companies based in West Africa for more than 27 years, and his family has employed tens of thousands of people around the globe," Trump spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt previously told Business Insider in an email, adding that media reports questioning Boulos' credentials were "fake news."

Ahead of the 2024 election, Barron Trump began venturing into politics after turning 18, serving as an at-large Florida delegate at the Republican National Convention.

In an August interview with streamer Adin Ross, Donald Trump shared that Barron Trump had told him to appear on the show, saying, "Dad, he's really big."

While Barron Trump will be busy with his studies at New York University during his father's second term, he may continue offering advice to appeal to young citizens.

Representatives for the Trump transition team did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
