Vanessa Trump helped Kai Trump shop for a first college apartment on Sunday while recovering from breast cancer surgery. The move came as Kai, the eldest of Vanessa Trump and Donald Trump Jr.’s five children, started her freshman year at the University of Miami.
Kai said in the video that she and her mother spent HOURS shopping for everything she could possibly need, including cleaning supplies, and getting ready for a new chapter of college life. Vanessa Trump said, “I am totally exhausted from going to her apartment and coming back and forth and moving everything.”
Kai Trump at Miami
Kai Trump said Vanessa Trump drove to Miami “for no reason yesterday” because Kai messed up the furniture delivery. Vanessa Trump replied, “It was during rush hour too, so it was fun times,” then added, “What we do for our children, right?”
Kai also wrote, “So thankful my mom was there to do it all with me. She truly is the BEST mom, and I’m so grateful for her.” Vanessa Trump said Kai would be cleaning her own apartment, and Kai joked, “No, I’m calling her down. ‘Hey mom, my bathroom is dirty,'” before Vanessa Trump answered, “She is going to learn how to do that, or else it’ll just stay a mess.”
Vanessa Trump in May
Vanessa Trump disclosed her breast cancer diagnosis in May, saying, “While this isn’t the news anyone expects, I’m working closely with my medical team on a treatment plan.” She added that she was “staying focused and hopeful while surrounded by the love and support of my family, my kids, and those closest to me.”
A month later, she said she was recovering from surgery and described herself as “healing and moving forward.” She also said, “Soon, I’ll be starting the second stage of my treatment,” which places the apartment move squarely between surgery recovery and the next stage of care.
For readers following who is Vanessa Trump, the practical update is simple: she is still handling family milestones in public while moving through treatment. The next step in her health story is the second stage she said would begin soon, while Kai settles into life at Miami.
