It was a big day for the Trump family as President Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th President of the United States on January 20.
Among his supporters were his family, including his wife, First Lady Melania, and his son Barron, who made the trip to Washington D.C. from New York City, where he is currently studying.
Barron first appeared at the St John's Church service alongside his dad, and sported a new look. The 6ft 7 student showed off much shorter hair in photos from the day and he had his locks slicked back in a look reminiscent of his dad.
He wore a perfectly tailored, dark suit as he mingled with other guests inside the church.
Despite his mother and father's new residence at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, Barron will continue living at the family's Midtown Manhattan residence, Trump Tower, while he studies at New York University's Stern School of Business in Lower Manhattan.
Earlier this month, Melania revealed that while she and her husband are relocating, Barron will not be a permanent resident.

Barron's new school is only three miles from Trump Tower where he was raised for the first decade of his life before moving to the White House and then settling at the family's Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida.

Instead of attending Donald's alma mater, the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Business, Barron chose NYU's business school instead.

"I've known NYU for a long time," Donald continued. "It's one of the highest rated."

He added: "I went to Wharton, and that was certainly one that we were considering. We didn't do that. We went for Stern."

Barron is the only child of Donald and his wife, Melania, but he has four other children from previous relationships.
