Donald Trump Jr. decided to attend father Donald Trump's inauguration solo, after he was forced to juggle his new girlfriend and his exes over the weekend.
Donald, 78, was surrounded by his entire family as he got sworn in as the 47th President of the United States on Monday afternoon.
But one person from the Trump clan was notably absent from the big moment - Don Jr.'s new partner, Bettina Anderson, 38.
While all of Donald's other kids had their significant others with them, Bettina was nowhere to be seen during the inauguration.
Instead, Don Jr. hung out with his siblings and their respective partners, including Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, Eric Trump and his wife, Lara Trump, Tiffany Trump, and her husband, Michael Buolos, and Barron Trump.
Don Jr.'s latest love interest may not have been in attendance, but his past partner Vanessa Trump was.
In the days leading up to the inauguration, Don Jr., 47, crossed paths with Vanessa, as well as ex Kimberly Guilfoyle, on numerous occasions, as both of them were spotted at various parties, dinners, and events to celebrate his father.
In addition to being at the inauguration, Vanessa was photographed arriving with her daughter Chloe Trump at Donald's wreath laying ceremony at Arlington National Cemetery on Sunday.

Don Jr. his socialite girlfriend, Bettina, flaunted their budding new romance at the same candlelight dinner.
It's been said that Don Jr. and Kimberly still have 'a cordial relationship,' so there was likely no drama at the event.
'She was posting for his birthday recently, sharing pics of herself with their family and the kids, sort of a big blended family with his ex-wife,' Kelly Laco, Executive Editor of Politics for DailyMail.com, said on a new podcast.
Bettina has mostly stayed out of the spotlight since DailyMail.com exclusively revealed that they were dating last summer.
Sources previously told DailyMail.com that Bettina isn't 'MAGA enough' and her notorious party girl reputation in Palm Beach doesn't mesh well with the first family's A-list Mar-A-Lago clientele.
But she has been by Don Jr.'s side for much of this weekend.

Don Jr. and Kimberly, 55, started dating in 2018 and got engaged in December 2020.
But in 2024, it was revealed that they had called off their engagement and went their separate ways.
Before that, he was married to Vanessa, 47, from 2005 until 2018.
They welcomed five kids together during their marriage: Kai Trump, Donald Trump III, Tristan Trump, Chloe, and Spencer Trump.
