President Trump won’t attend his son’s destination wedding

Cockburn isn’t the only one heading to the Bahamas this weekend. So is Donald Trump Jr. – to get married to Bettina Anderson in a private ceremony of around 50 people. It will be his second marriage and Anderson’s first. It sounds like Don Jr.’s father might be sitting this one out. “He’d like me to go,” President Trump told reporters Thursday, “but it’s going to be a small little private affair, and I’m going to try and make it… I’m in the midst – I said, ‘You know, this is not good timing for me. I have a thing called Iran and other things.’” “He’s a person I’ve known for a long time,” he added. Political careers and family life often conflict but Cockburn won’t accuse Trump of being an absentee father just yet.

Meet Bettina Anderson, Donald Trump Jr.’s WASPy fiancée

On December 15, the White House was the setting for its own romantic holiday movie, though it didn’t involve amnesia or a big-city career gal moving to a small town to reconnect with her high-school boyfriend who’s now a lumberjack and handyman. Instead, President Trump “let the cat out of the bag” by announcing that his son, Donald Trump Jr., was engaged to a woman named Bettina Anderson. "I'm not usually at a loss for words, because I'm usually doing the ranting and raving really well," said the 47-year-old Don Jr. "I want to thank Bettina for that one word: 'Yes.'" It was, he said, a "big win for the end of the year". Bigly. Who is this new branch on the Trump family tree? Articles widely describe Anderson as a “Florida socialite.
