In case you were wondering, Vanessa Trump rolls deep. No, really. On July 23, 2025, Page Six reported that a whopping six Secret Service SUVs were camped right outside the Southampton establishment where she and her eldest daughter, Kai Trump, were dining. “They were everywhere. It felt like every part of the block had an agent,” one source told the celebrity and entertainment news outlet. Meanwhile, another maintained that all of the agents were warm and friendly, revealing that they even doled out flag pins to onlookers. Secret Service agents — they’re just like us.
Sadly, the large and in charge Secret Service protection hints at yet another tragic truth about Vanessa’s life: the mother of five basically has to live her life on high alert at all times. As you may recall, in 2018, she was sent to the hospital after opening an envelope addressed to her then-husband, Donald Trump Jr., containing a mysterious white powdered substance. “I was rushed to the hospital, evaluated and put on Cipro for the longest two weeks of my life, and while they worked to identify whether the white powder was deadly, I spent the entire time thinking about the horrifying possibility that I would never see my five beautiful children again,” she later recalled about the harrowing incident in a statement to Axios. “Even today, every time I open the mail, I feel the same fear in my heart as I did that day.”
Kai Trump is feeling the pain from the heavy Secret Service presence as well
Unfortunately, moving with a large group of Secret Service agents is not only a necessity for Vanessa Trump but for her entire brood. In June 2025, an incident at Mar-a-Lago had everyone worried for Vanessa’s oldest daughter, and it made the tragic reality of Kai Trump’s newfound fame glaringly clear. As reported by Florida Today, a 23-year-old man named Anthony Thomas Reyes was arrested after he scaled the wall at Mar-a-Lago, President Donald Trump’s members-only club in Palm Beach, Florida. According to officials, Reyes claimed he was there to “spread the gospel” and marry the president’s 18-year-old granddaughter.
All brazen and deranged stalkers aside, showing up to every single life event surrounded by a gaggle of armed Secret Service agents can feel isolating, especially for a teenager. Enter: the sad reality of Kai’s day-to-day life. “It’s tough because you’re in high school, and you want to have your privacy,” Kai remarked during an episode of her famous YouTube vlog. “But I feel no matter what, I’ll probably never have the privacy as other kids my age, so I kinda just gotta deal with it,” she continued. “Also, having Secret Service is a good thing because you never know what will happen. There’s a lot of wackos.” Wall-scaling wackos, indeed.
