After a year of dating, Donald Trump Jr is now finally engaged to Bettina Anderson, as the U.S. President announced his eldest son’s engagement at the White House on December 15, 2025.
Bettina Anderson was born in December 1986 to entrepreneur Harry Loy Anderson Jr. and philanthropist Inger Anderson. She grew up in Palm Beach, Florida where she continues to reside today.
Bettina Anderson graduated from Columbia University in 2009 with a degree in art history, criticism and conservation.
She is a model by profession and often posts pictures of her modeling gigs on Instagram. Her most notable photo shoots are from 2020, including the cover of Quest magazine and Hamilton Jewellers.
In 2021, she was featured in a story in Palm Beach Illustrated, in which she was described as a “local influencer.”
Unverified reports place Bettina’s Anderson’s net worth between $500,000 and $600,000 as of late 2025, but there is no official confirmation of the same.
While the true estimate is likely higher and her sources of income include modelling and influencing.
Anderson's family is part of the Palm Beach most powerful, influential and wealthy elites in society.
According to People, her father, Harry Loy Anderson, became president of the Worth Avenue National Bank at the age of 26.
As per The List, Anderson grew up in a multimillion-dollar estate and attended prestigious private schools, some of whose tuition fees are higher than yearly incomes of average American families.
She attended Palm Beach Day School, now known as Palm Beach Day Academy, the publication where tuition fee cost north of $35,000 annually.
Bettina later went to St. Andrew's School, a private day and boarding school in Boca Raton, where tuition for boarders can go up to $76,000 a year.
After her mother Inger died, her father sold their estate for $11.88 million and Anderson since moved out and bought a West Palm Beach home costing $860,000.
Her fashion choices also give an insight into her wealth, while her brother has his own plane.
Donald Trump Jr's net worth, in comparison, is $500 million, as per a September 2025 Forbes article.
Together, her parents became well-known as a philanthropic couple as her mother, Inger, was in this field and father Harry also served as a board member on the Historical Society of Palm Beach County and the national board of governors for the American Red Cross.
Bettina often quotes, “My mom has always been an inspiration.”
Following the footsteps of her philanthropic parents, Bettina founded ‘The Paradise Fund,’ a nonprofit that helps local organizations with disaster relief.
In her Instagram bio, Anderson calls herself a “typical stay at home mom”, while acknowledging that she doesn’t do household chores, or have a husband or kids.
In most of her free time, she apparently likes to swim, box, go spearfishing in the Bahamas, walk on Palm Beach’s Lake Trail, and spend time with her nephews. She is also a licensed rebreather tech diver.
