There are a lot of things as humans that we don’t have control of. One of them is what family we are born into. It is true that irrespective of your family background you can become whatever you want if you are willing to knuckle down and work hard. That and a bit of luck will get you far. But it is also true that some people are given a good head start on things by virtue of being born into influential families. If you are that lucky, it will take carelessness and foolishness of immense proportions to end up a failure in life. That can be said of Tiffany Trump, daughter of US President Donald Trump.

Tiffany has been dating Ross Mechanic whom she met while she was a student of the University of Pennsylvania since 2015. Interestingly, Ross is a card-carrying Democrat who supported Hillary Clinton on social media. As far as being born into the limelight is concerned, Ross is no slouch.
His father Jonathan Mechanic is a powerful New York real estate lawyer playing in the same business space as Donald Trump. The two have done a few business deals together. After a deal was closed, Jonathan once recounted how Trump presented him with a copy of his book The Art of the Deal with an inscription “To the greatest real estate lawyer in the world, best wishes, Donald”.
Ross works at a real-estate start-up called Cadre, founded by Tiffany’s brother-in-law Jared Kushner. Ross and Tiffany have kept their relationship relatively private and generally, the couple shuns the spotlight.

It is safe to say that, unlike her other siblings, Tiff is more on the petite side. While her other siblings are all above 1.8 meters tall, Tiffany is 1.73 meters (5ft 9′) tall. Her body measurements are 34-26-34. She currently weighs 53kg.
She may be an heir to a Billion dollar fortune, but at the moment Tiffany’s Net Worth is put at a modest $600,000. This obviously excludes the access she has to the ‘deep pockets’ of her famous father
