US President Donald Trump has become a grandfather for the 10th time after his son Eric's wife Lara gave birth to a girl. "@LaraLeaTrump and I are excited to welcome Carolina Dorothy Trump into the world. We love you already!" the president's son tweeted minutes before Monday midnight.

It is the couple's second child -- their first, Eric Luke Trump, turns two years old in September. The 73-year-old president has five children from three different women. His two oldest children, Donald Jr. and Ivanka, have respectively five and three children.
