Tiffany told PEOPLE in 2016 that since she grew up with mom Marla Maples, Trumps second wife, in California, visiting her father on her spring breaks from school became a tradition. I still see him on spring breaks or for Easter, Im always at Mar-a-Lago with the family, the Georgetown Law School student explained.
But insiders tell PEOPLE that behind the scenes, Tiffanys already strained relationship with her father has hit new lows since he took office in January 2017, with the pair going months at a time without contact.
Since the inauguration, Tiffany and her father have sometimes gone for months without speaking and she went a very long time without seeing him, a source close to Trumps younger daughter says. The last time she was at a family function with him, it was awkward for her and she didnt feel totally welcome.
Although Tiffany, 24, was rarely seen on the campaign trail especially in comparison to her far more visible older half-siblings, Ivanka, Don Jr. and Eric she did make appearances with her father in the final days before the 2016 election and also spoke at the 2016 Republican National Convention in July. The source tells PEOPLE that Trump and Tiffanys time on the road included bonding moments that brought the father and daughter closer together but that closeness was short-lived.
They always had a strained relationship her whole life, and it got exacerbated by the presidency, the source says. Its gotten much worse now.

(13,524 posts)Donald Trump kicked off Election Day with a jab at his least visible offspring telling a Fox and Friends panel he was proud of 23-year-old Tiffany to a lesser extent than his other adult spawn.
Im very proud of my children. I mean, Im just looking at them right now, as an example for your show, he said. But Im very proud, because Don and Eric and Ivanka and you know, to a lesser extent cause she just got out of school, out of college but, uh, Tiffany, who has also been so terrific.

His spiritual advisers must be opening a mulligan factory.
