Vanessa Trump

Vanessa Trump (born December 18, 1977) is a former model and the ex-wife of Donald Trump Jr., whom she married in 2005 and divorced in 2018 after having five children, including their eldest, Kai Trump. Raised on Manhattan's Upper East Side, she grew up in a family with Danish and Swedish roots—her maternal grandfather was jazz musician Kai Ewans—and began modeling as a teen, later appearing in the 2003 film Something's Gotta Give and launching her own handbag line, La Poshett, in 2010. Before her marriage, she famously dated Saudi prince Khalid bin Bandar bin Sultan Al Saud from 1998 until 2001, when his father was linked to individuals associated with the 9/11 hijackers. In November 2024, she reportedly began a relationship with professional golfer Tiger Woods, which he publicly confirmed via Instagram in March 2025. Most recently, in May 2026, she announced that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer, bringing her personal health journey into the public eye.
