Despite being part of one of America’s most high-profile families, Kai managed to maintain a relatively low profile during her childhood. It wasn’t until Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign that she began appearing in official family photos. However, it wasn’t until 2024 that Kai truly stepped into the public eye, delivering a heartfelt speech at the Republican National Convention. In her speech, she described her grandfather as a “normal grandpa” who sneaks her candy, checks in on her school progress, and proudly shares her accomplishments, such as her high honor roll, with his friends.

One particularly emotional moment for Kai came during her speech at the RNC, which occurred shortly after her grandfather had survived an assassination attempt. Reflecting on the experience, she shared, “It was really special for both of us. We got a little teary-eyed. I’ll never forget that.”

Kai’s relationship with her grandfather extends beyond politics. They share a mutual love for golf, often competing on the green. Kai has spoken about the intensity of their matches, joking that her grandfather rarely lets her win. Despite the stiff competition, Kai’s passion for the sport has flourished. Earlier this year, she won the ladies’ club championship at Trump’s golf course in West Palm Beach, Florida. Her talent and dedication to golf earned her a spot on the University of Miami’s women’s golf team, a milestone she proudly announced on Instagram, thanking her family—and her grandfather—for their support.
