The Trump family had a good weekend in the Bahamas, which makes a change. Don Jr. married Bettina Anderson on a private island on Saturday, and Tiffany documented it on Instagram. For once, the Trump family’s social media content did not trigger a taxpayer complaint or a body language debate.
Anderson had initially expressed interest in getting married at the White House, but the groom did not think it was appropriate given the US-Israel war with Iran, and Anderson ultimately agreed.
From there, the couple had already made things legal on Thursday, quietly tying the knot at the West Palm Beach home of Anderson’s sister Kristina McPherson, before heading to the Bahamas for the celebration. About 40 guests attended the island ceremony, including Don Jr.’s five children and siblings Ivanka, Eric, and Tiffany, along with their spouses.
The president was not among them, citing Iran and government responsibilities as reasons to remain in Washington.

Tiffany, 32, then posted a series of images from the weekend that captured the tropical setting without generating the kind of backlash that followed Lara Trump’s China trip documentation earlier this month.
She wore a fitted brown-and-white patterned Pucci gown retailing at $1,685, posed on a moonlit path surrounded by lush greenery, and shared a video of crystal-clear Bahamian water.
The tone was celebratory rather than promotional, a distinction that stood on its own.

Bettina also shared her own content from the weekend, posting a black-and-white image of the couple’s hands with their silver wedding bands on display. “Forever yours, forever mine,” she wrote, followed by: “The whole point is to marry your best friend.”
Eric Trump told Page Six that the newlyweds “truly light up around each other” and called the relationship “amazing” to witness.
The island itself reflects the couple’s taste for exclusivity.
Norman’s Cay in the Exumas has a private airstrip with its own customs clearance and is described as a members-only sanctuary, with accommodation starting at $1,400 per person per night. The only way in is by chartered plane or boat. Personalized butler service is standard, and the beaches are uncrowded by design.
This is Don Jr.’s third engagement and his first marriage since his 2018 divorce from Vanessa Trump, with whom he shares five children. His previous engagement to Kimberly Guilfoyle ended quietly as he was increasingly seen with Anderson in Palm Beach.
Guilfoyle is now US Ambassador to Greece.
