Donald Trump Admits His Wife Melania 'Loves' Their Son Barron, 19, 'More Than' Him in Shocking Confession: 'Hate to Say It'

Donald Trump knows he isn't the only man who has his wife Melania Trump's heart.

On Monday, August 18, the president of the United States, 79, was chatting with reporters when he admitted the first lady, 55, is more fond of their 19-year-old son, Barron Trump, than her husband.

Donald's confession came as he was sitting in the Oval Office with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, 47 — who was visiting the White House amid efforts to reach a peace deal with Russia and end the ongoing war in Ukraine.

"She's got a great love of children, she has a wonderful son that she loves probably more than anybody, including me, I hate to say it," President Trump declared while letting out a laugh.

Donald's comedic confession about Melania and their son — who is set to start his sophomore year at New York University's Stern School of Business this fall — came in response to Zelensky thanking the first lady for writing a letter to Russian leader Vladimir Putin urging him to stop his country's invasion of Ukraine.

The former model had her husband hand-deliver the personal note during his meeting with President Putin in Alaska on Friday, August 15, which she did not attend.

In her letter, Melania focused on the children who are suffering as a result of the war.

"She loves her son, she loves children and she hates to see something like this happening," Donald mentioned while explaining his wife's intentions.

In her letter, obtained by Fox News Digital, Melania informed President Putin: "Every child shares the same quiet dreams in their heart, whether born randomly into a nation's rustic countryside or a magnificent city-center. They dream of love, possibility, and safety from danger."

Melania urged the 72-year-old to protect the "innocence" of children, noting, "as parents, it is our duty to nurture the next generation's hope."

"As leaders, the responsibility to sustain our children extends beyond the comfort of a few. Undeniably, we must strive to paint a dignity-filled world for all — so that every soul may wake to peace, and so that the future itself is perfectly guarded," she continued.

Melania promised the former intelligence officer that ending the war in Ukraine will "do more than serve Russia alone — you serve humanity itself."

"Such a bold idea transcends all human division, and you, Mr. Putin, are fit to implement this vision with a stroke of a pen today. It is time," she concluded.

The war in Ukraine hits close to home for Melania — who was born and raised in communist Yugoslavia before leaving to work as a model in the early 1990s. Right around this time, war broke out in her country and it ultimately split into multiple successor states, making her a modern-day citizen of Slovenia.
