Donald Trump Jr.’s Wedding
New Wife Wanted White House Wedding …
He Reportedly Shot It Down
Published
Donald Trump Jr. and Bettina Anderson are on a dream wedding weekend in The Bahamas … but it might not be their dream scenario — because a new report indicates the bride wanted to wear white in the White House.
CNN — citing multiple sources — reports Anderson initially floated the idea of a White House wedding … but Don Jr. didn’t think it was a good call, citing the war in Iran as a major reason why. Anderson ultimately agreed with her now-husband’s assessment.
President Donald Trump also reportedly told allies he didn’t think it was a good idea either … so sounds like everyone was on the same page here.
Don Jr. and Bettina settled on a small, private affair in The Bahamas instead … not a bad Plan B, we gotta say. And TMZ obtained the marriage license — which showed the 2 officially said “I Do” in Palm Beach, Florida ahead of the getaway weekend celebration.
A follow-up celebration at the White House could take place later this year, sources told CNN. We’ve reached out to the White House for comment … so far, no word back.
According to the White House Historical Association, Don Jr. and Bettina’s White House Wedding would’ve been the 20th in history … and just the third this century.
Joe Biden‘s granddaughter, Naomi Biden, married her husband Peter Neal on the South Lawn in 2022 … while Official White House Photographer Pete Souza married Patti Lease in the Rose Garden in 2013.
Don Jr. would’ve been the first son of a president to marry in the White House since John Quincy Adams‘ son tied the knot with Mary Catherine Hellen in 1828.
A White House wedding certainly would’ve been easier for President Trump to attend … since he won’t make the trip to The Bahamas. He revealed he’d stay in D.C. on Truth Social Friday — citing the ongoing war in Iran as the major reason why.
All you really need is love … though cocktails in the East Wing would’ve been pretty great, too!
