- Donald Trump announced that Tiffany Trump is pregnant at a campaign event in Michigan on Thursday.
Tiffany Trump and her husband, Michael Boulos, are expecting their first child, former President Donald Trump announced on Thursday.
The Trump campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Boulos is the heir to Boulos Enterprises, a Nigerian distribution and trading company for motorcycles and other vehicles. His father, Massad Boulos, who runs the company, is CEO of the conglomerate SCOA Nigeria PLC.
Michael Boulos began dating Tiffany Trump in 2018 and reportedly proposed to her with a $1.2 million engagement ring at the White House, shortly before Donald Trump left office. The couple wed at Mar-a-Lago in 2022.
Here's a timeline of their relationship.
Boulos grew up in Lagos, Nigeria, where his family owns a multibillion-dollar conglomerate of companies. He was studying project management at City, University of London, when he met Tiffany, then a law student at Georgetown, on vacation in Mykonos.
"I wasn't there when they met," Lohan told People magazine at the premiere party for her MTV series, "Lindsay Lohan's Beach Club," in 2019, adding that she knew both Tiffany Trump and Boulos but didn't know exactly how they met.
Boulos joined Trump in the front row of the Taoray Wang show during New York Fashion Week.
"Tiffany is happy she has so far been able to keep things with Michael under the radar," an unnamed source told Page Six. "But she introduced him to her family at Thanksgiving, and he comes across as a very intelligent young man from a great family. There was no mention of the president's unfortunate comment about African nations."
In January 2018, Donald Trump reportedly referred to African nations and Haiti using an expletive during a meeting with lawmakers. He denied the reports, writing on X that the language he used was "tough" but that the widely reported remark was "not the language used."
Trump posted an Instagram photo of her and Boulos in the Red Room of the White House at Christmastime. Boulos also shared a photo with her at a White House Christmas party, captioned, "Christmas vibes are the best vibes," in a post that no longer appears on his page.

Public records showed that the three-night trip to France, during which the couple stayed at the Marriott Jesta Fontainebleau hotel, cost taxpayers at least $20,000, Quartz reported.
"For operational security reasons, the Secret Service cannot discuss specifically nor in general terms the means, methods, resources, costs, or numbers we utilize to carry out our protective responsibilities," a Secret Service spokesperson told Quartz.
"With every ounce of heart and mind, and sweat and soul, we're going to keep making America great again, and then we will indeed keep America great," Donald Trump said in his speech. "I will keep it so great. Better than ever before. We're going to keep it better than ever before. And that is why tonight, I stand before you to officially launch my campaign for a second term as president of the United States."
"Happy Birthday, @michaelboulos," she captioned a photo of her and Boulos. "You fill my life with so much joy, kindness and laughter! Thank you for always putting a smile on my face!"
Boulos sat behind Tiffany, who was seated beside Donald Trump Jr. and Kimberly Guilfoyle.
How the turkey pardoning tradition started is still a bit of a mystery, but the White House traces it all the way back to President Abraham Lincoln in 1863.
Trump's other children were in attendance, as well as his then-lawyer Rudy Giuliani.
They were joined by Eric Trump and Lara Trump.

She gave a speech on the second night of the RNC in support of her father, speaking about her recent graduation from Georgetown Law School.
"Like so many students across the world, I graduated from law school during the pandemic," she said. "Our generation is unified in facing the future in uncertain times. And many of us are considering what kind of country we want to live in. As a recent graduate, I can relate to so many of you who might be looking for a job. My father built a thriving economy once and believe me, he will do it again."

Boulos proposed in the White House Rose Garden with a diamond ring worth $1.2 million, People magazine reported.
Tiffany Trump and Boulos vacationed in Mykonos, where their relationship began, over the summer. People magazine reported that they were looking at possible locations for a destination wedding.
Page Six reported that Donald Trump and his ex-wife, Tiffany's mother Marla Maples, would host the wedding at Mar-a-Lago with over 500 people expected to attend.
Days before the wedding, Mar-a-Lago and its surrounding coastal residential areas were under mandatory evacuation orders because of the storm.
