Kai Trump is giving some insight into how often her grandfather, President Donald Trump, calls her on the phone.
“My grandpa’s calling me,” Kai, 19, told her 1.49 million subscribers in a YouTube video shared on Friday, May 22, in celebration of her high school graduation.
The newly-minted graduate then picked up the phone while she was getting her hair done.
“Alright, I love you,” Kai told the president, 79. “Bye.”
Kai then dished on how often her grandfather reaches out despite his busy schedule as commander-in-chief.
“So cute. Isn’t it so cute that he just calls me whenever?” she told her stylist. “He’s literally just, like, a grandpa, I swear. He literally is on the way back from China and he’s calling me. I know, very very cute.”
Kai is the eldest child of Donald Trump Jr. and his ex, Vanessa Pergolizzi. (The pair also share a son, Donald Trump III.)
Kai’s comments regarding her grandfather come after the president seemed uninterested in attending — and later confirmed he would not attend — Donald Jr.’s wedding to Bettina Anderson.
“He’d like me to go,” the president told reporters on Thursday, May 21, when asked if he was planning to be present for his son’s nuptials. “It’s gonna be just a small, little private affair and I’m gonna try and make it. I said, ‘You know, this is not good timing for me. I have a thing called Iran and other things.”
The president added, “That’s one I can’t win on. If I do attend, I get killed. If I don’t attend, I get killed by the fake news, of course, I’m talking about.”
Donald Jr. and Anderson secretly tied the knot ahead of their scheduled Bahamas wedding, Us Weekly confirmed earlier this week. According to court documents obtained by Us, the pair obtained a marriage license in Palm Beach, Florida, on Thursday. The legal document was signed off by a deputy clerk, with real estate attorney Brad McPherson officiating the private ceremony.
The license indicated that Anderson, a socialite and model, does not intend to take the “Trump” moniker as her legal last name.
According to TMZ, the pair plan to have a second ceremony in the Bahamas over the Memorial Day Weekend – a ceremony the president ultimately will not attend in person.
“While I very much wanted to be with my son, Don Jr., and the newest member of the trump Family, his soon to be wife, Bettina, circumstances pertaining to Government, and my love for the United States of America, do not allow me to do so,” the president announced via social media. “I feel it is important for me to remain in Washington, D.C., at the White House during this important period of time. Congratulations to Don and Bettina!”
