Vanessa Kay Pergolizzi grew up in a townhouse on the Upper East Side of Manhattan and attended The Dwight School, a private school. Her stepfather, Charles Haydon, was a lawyer. Her mother, Bonnie Kay Haydon, ran Kay Models, a modeling agency, and is of Danish and Swedish origin. Her maternal grandfather was Danish jazz musician Kai Ewans.
In 2011, Trump appeared in an episode of The Apprentice, hosted by her father-in-law, Donald Trump. She also appeared in an episode of Bret Michaels: Life as I Know It (2010).
During her teenage years, Trump dated local street gangster Valentín Rivera, a Latin Kings gang member. According to Rivera, he ended the relationship when the New York Post published a story that Trump was in a romantic relationship with Leonardo DiCaprio (DiCaprio's publicist denied the relationship).
From 1998 to 2001, Trump dated Saudi prince Khalid bin Bandar bin Sultan Al Saud. The relationship ended in 2001, when Khalid bin Bandar left the U.S. after his Saudi ambassador father, Bandar bin Sultan Al Saud, was suspected of having indirect ties to individuals linked with the Al Qaeda hijackers.
Trump reportedly began a relationship with professional golfer Tiger Woods in November 2024. The relationship became public in March 2025, with Woods announcing it through Instagram.
