Lara Trump Says Husband Looks Like a Young Donald Trump: ‘I Know What I Got to Look Forward To'
While answering viewer questions on her show, The Right View, Lara Trump revealed that she thinks her husband, Eric Trump, looks just like his dad. And that means she kind of has a crystal ball into her future.
When one of her fans wrote in, "Can you show a picture of President Trump, your husband, and your son all around the age of 8 to 10 years old? They look almost identical," Lara replied. "That's interesting. Um, do you think so?"
President Donald Trump's daughter-in-law gave her viewers a brief explainer, focusing on her theory of the Trump family DNA: "My daughter actually got a lot of the Trump gene aesthetics. So, when I look at pictures of, especially my husband as a kid, he looks so much like my daughter, Carolina. Like the face, the whole thing, her coloring, all of it. And I kind of think my son looks a little bit like my dad when my dad was younger."
Does Lara Trump think her husband looks like President Trump?
Yes, Lara does think Eric resembles his famous father. She went on to share, "I will say this, that when I look back at photos of my father-in-law, there's, I think it's a Time Magazine with him on the cover, and he was probably like in his late 30s, so around my husband's age. My husband looks a lot like his dad did at that time."
Lara continued, "So, I guess I know what's in my future. I know what I got to look forward to." She also compared the similarities between the president and her husband to his older brother, Donald Trump Jr., saying, "So they look very similar. He certainly looks more like his dad, I think, than Don. Don is more dark-complexioned, and he certainly got more of the Czech genes from their mom than I think Eric did. Maybe he got a lot more of the Trump genes. So we'll see how it goes.
What do Lara's viewers think about the resemblance? Her show posed the question to the public on Instagram, and commenters seem to agree with her assessment. One wrote, "Oh yes! Eric is the image of his Dad," and another said, "Absolutely." But some didn't exactly agree.
A few commenters think the president's youngest son, Barron Trump, is a copy of his dad, adding, "Barron looks just like a very young DJT," and "There's a similarity, but Barron looks the most like DJT."
