Speaking to Nicki Swift, Holly Davis of Austin-based Kirker Davis LLP, who has extensive experience in high-net-worth divorce cases, gave some insight on what could potentially happen to Barron Trump’s finances should Donald Trump serve a prison sentence. We asked if Donald would be on the hook for any child support since Barron is a minor. “Barron would likely not be a minor at the time of any imprisonment, so Trump would not have to pay child support,” Davis told NIckiSwift.
We also asked if Barron’s inheritance would be impacted by his father serving time. Davis believed that Donald and Melania Trump would likely have set up prior protections for their son. ” A parent’s financial downfall may negatively impact any inheritance that was expected by a family member, so it is likely that Trump may have already set up certain financial accounts for Barron under the terms of any premarital agreement or postnuptial agreement with Melania, or perhaps created an irrevocable trust in Barron’s name prior to any indictments to protect certain assets,” Davis said.
In March, as legal charges against Donald rolled out, a source close to the Trumps spoke about the steps Melania had taken to safeguard her son. “Barron has always been a first priority in [Melania’s] life,” the insider told People at the time while insisting that the former first lady had always been protective of Barron, and that the court cases against her husband had no bearing on that protection.
