President of the United States (US) Donald Trump has announced that he will not attend the upcoming wedding of his son, Donald Trump Jr., due to government responsibilities.
In a post published on his Truth Social account on Friday, Trump said official duties and his commitment to the US will keep him away from the ceremony involving Donald Trump Jr. and his fiancée, Bettina Anderson.
“While I very much wanted to be with my son, Don Jr., and the newest member of the Trump Family, his soon to be wife, Bettina, circumstances pertaining to Government, and my love for the United States of America, do not allow me to do so,” Trump said.
The president also described the moment as an “important period of time,” stressing that affairs of state required his continued presence at the White House.
Despite his absence, Trump congratulated the couple ahead of their wedding and expressed support for their union.
