Donald Trump Jr.’s fiancée, Bettina Anderson, is still walking on air after her dreamy bridal shower.
“Still soaking in how beautiful and special Sunday was. To be surrounded by so many women I love and admire, and feel so grateful to have in my corner, meant more than I can say,” Anderson, 39, wrote via Instagram on Wednesday, April 15. “Thank you to my INCREDIBLE hostesses, Audrey, Amy, and Yaz, for creating such a thoughtful, elegant, and love-filled day … I’m still floating! 🤍@donaldjtrumpjr I cannot wait to marry you!”
Anderson’s shower was held at Mar-a-Lago, the resort owned by the bride’s future father-in-law, President Donald J. Trump, on Sunday, April 12.

“I just want to wish all of you guys an incredible holiday season,” Donald Jr. said during a White House event in December 2025. “And to thank Bettina for that one word, ‘yes.’ It’s always good. You go down there and … you’re trying to ask and you’re not sure what the answer is going to be, it’s always a little bit rough.”
