What began as a spontaneous encounter on the sun-soaked shores of Mykonos has now blossomed into a transatlantic love story — one that includes high-profile holiday gatherings, a Palm Beach wedding, and now, a baby on the way.
A Greek Island Spark
In the summer of 2018, Tiffany Trump — daughter of former President Donald Trump and actress Marla Maples — met Michael Boulos at a beach club in Mykonos famously tied to Lindsay Lohan. While the actress later clarified she wasn’t present, that didn’t stop sparks from flying between Tiffany and Michael.
By the following year, their romance had made its way to the White House, with Tiffany posting a photo of them in the Red Room — marking the couple’s official political and public debut.
Who Is Michael Boulos?
While not a household name in the U.S., Michael Boulos hails from a powerful business family with deep roots in West Africa. Born in Lebanon and raised in Nigeria, Boulos is the heir to Boulos Enterprises and SCOA Nigeria, companies that dominate in the region’s motorcycle and auto sectors.
The Boulos family is known for its partnership with Suzuki, distributing vehicles and spare parts throughout Nigeria. Despite political tensions surrounding former President Trump’s controversial comments about African nations, Tiffany remained undeterred.
“She doesn’t pay attention to any of that noise,” a source told PEOPLE at the time.
A Relationship in Motion
By the end of 2018, Michael had already become a familiar face in the Trump family circle, spending Thanksgiving at Mar-a-Lago and even appearing in family photos alongside Ivanka, Donald Jr., and Eric.
Then came the Rose Garden proposal in January 2021 — just days before Donald Trump’s presidency ended. Michael presented Tiffany with a stunning $1.2 million diamond ring, and she shared the happy news on Instagram with a message:
“Feeling blessed and excited for the next chapter!”
Wedding Bells at Mar-a-Lago
Though the couple weighed options in Greece and Miami, they ultimately chose Mar-a-Lago — Tiffany’s childhood backdrop — as their wedding venue. The ceremony took place on November 12, 2022, just after Tropical Storm Nicole passed through Florida and a few days before Donald Trump kicked off his 2024 campaign.
The celebration was steeped in family tradition. Trump walked his daughter down the aisle, while Marla Maples offered a touching prayer. Tiffany wore a custom Elie Saab gown, a tribute to Boulos’s Lebanese roots. Their lavish cake mirrored the design of her parents’ wedding confection.
Settling Down in South Florida
Post-wedding, the couple put down roots in Miami, close to other Trump family members including Ivanka and Don Jr. The vibrant, globally connected city offered the ideal blend of privacy and luxury.
Then came an unexpected update.
In October 2024, during a campaign rally in Detroit, Donald Trump revealed that Tiffany and Michael were expecting their first child.
“She’s going to have a baby,” he said proudly. “She’s an exceptional young woman.” A representative confirmed the news shortly after.
A Quiet Yet Influential Figure
While Tiffany remains a public figure, Michael Boulos tends to avoid the spotlight — preferring a quieter but no less impressive presence. Committed and composed, he has seamlessly adapted to life alongside the Trump legacy.
From a chance meeting on a Greek island to starting a family with the daughter of a former U.S. president, Michael Boulos’ journey is one of wealth, discretion, and quietly making history — one milestone at a time.
