Tiffany Trump has been in hysterics as a category-1 hurricane barrels towards Florida and threatens to swamp her blockbuster Mar-a-Lago wedding.

The 26-year-old is due to tie the knot with billionaire heir Michael Boulos, 25, over the weekend following what was supposed to be a week of festivities at her father’s resort.

But the impending Hurricane Nicole has already begun dashing those plans, and could threaten the wedding itself.

Mar-a-Lago was closed down and staff were evacuated Wednesday and are not due to return to the resort until Friday – the same day Tiffany’s welcome dinner is scheduled.

A source close to Tiffany told Page Six that she is ‘flipping out,’ over the disruption. The source noted that the week’s events – which included a golf tournament – had already been scratched from the agenda.

At least 500 guests from around the world were due to arrive in Florida for the wedding, but the storm has left Palm Beach International Airport shut down as of Wednesday with all flights cancelled.

Tiffany’s mother, Marla Maples, took to Instagram on Wednesday to share a video of the wind whipping through palm trees as rain pounded down on the beach. She appeared to be in Miami, where Tiffany and Michael live full-time. 

The tropical storm is expected to become a Category 1 hurricane before making landfall later tonight. Marla, ever the optimist, set the footage to ‘Here Comes the Sun’ by the Beatles ahead of her daughter’s nuptials on Saturday, November 12. 

‘Welcome to the pre-wedding,’ she wrote in the on-screen text.

Sources told Page Six that while Mar-a-Lago had been shut down and its staff sent home, Tiffany and a handful of early-arriving guests remained in the empty hotel.   

‘They’ve sent staff home,’ the source said. ‘Tiffany is still there. Some guests came in for the week, and they had all these things planned. It was going to be a whole over-the-top thing. 

‘They had to cancel events today and canceled a golf outing for tomorrow. Everyone is stuck inside.’ 

‘Friday is supposed to be a welcome dinner and they aren’t sure it’s going to happen. Tiffany is flipping out,’ the source added.

On Monday as the storm was still brewing, Marla shared on Instagram that she was in Miami to help Tiffany and Michael with the final stages of planning. 

‘We’ve got a lot of balls in the air with last minute prep for Tiff and Michael’s wedding,’ she captioned the image, which shows her sporting a lilac purple tennis dress and tossing a ball in the air. 

‘Blessing time… breathing through all of it and remembering to put God in the center,’ she added. ‘I remember when I used to have time for tennis.’

The proud mom concluded her post with the hashtags #tennis, #momofthebride, #theluckyfam, and #lovefirst. 

Marla was by Tiffany’s side when she celebrated her upcoming nuptials at her bridal shower, which took place in Miami over the weekend. She shared snapshots from the lavish event on her Instagram Stories on Monday night, including images of herself posing with her daughter.

The bride-to-be was also joined by her father’s side of the family, including her stepmother, former First Lady Melania Trump; her sister, Ivanka Trump; her brother Eric Trump’s wife, Lara; and her brother Donald Trump Jr.’s fiancée, Kimberly Guilfoyle.

Lara brought her three-year-old daughter, Carolina, who wore a white lace dress just like her aunt. 

Tiffany opted for an elegant pencil dress that featured cut-outs at the waist and puffed-shoulder sleeves.  

She kept her accessories to a minimum, leaving her wrists and neck free from jewelry aside from her impressive 13-carat diamond engagement ring.  

Sisters-in-law Ivanka and Lara had a bit of an awkward moment when they both arrived at the shower wearing nearly identical floral dresses from Reformation, but they didn’t let the fashion faux pas stop them from enjoying the event.

They both beamed for the camera as they posed for a photo with Tiffany standing between them.  

‘Ivanka Trump and I did not plan these dresses,’ Lara joked while sharing the snap on her Instagram Stories.

The former TV producer also took a picture with Kimberly, 53, who wore a pale pink top and a bohemian flower crown that she made at the shower.   

Ivanka later posted an image of her family dog, Winter, sporting one of the creations.

The former White House senior adviser paid tribute to her younger sister on Instagram while sharing a photo of herself with Tiffany and Lara, along with a sweet snapshot of her niece Carolina.

‘Back in Florida, celebrating my beautiful, brilliant and kind sister @tiffanytrump at her bridal shower,’ she captioned the post.

Ivanka, who lives in Miami with her husband, Jared Kushner, and their three children, celebrated her birthday on October 30 with trips to Prague and Utah and arrived home in time for the shower.

Tiffany was treated like a queen and had her own white thrown to sit on during the over-the-top affair, which included stunning floral arrangements, tiered cakes, and a tower of macaroons.  

The shower was held at Susan Malzoni’s home, and Marla shared a photo of herself with the hostess.

Marla will be reuniting with her ex-husband, Donald Trump, at her daughter's wedding on Saturday

Marla will be reuniting with her ex-husband, Donald Trump, at her daughter’s wedding on Saturday 

‘Thank you so much Susan for opening up your home & your heart for the most special & magical bridal shower for Tiffany,’ the mother of the bride wrote. 

Tiffany is Marla’s only child with her ex-husband, Donald Trump, whom she will be reuniting with on her big day. 

Donald had been married to his first wife, Ivana Trump, for over a decade and shared three young children with her — Donald Jr., Ivanka, and Eric — when he started his highly-publicized affair with Marla in 1989. 

Ivana, who passed away earlier this year, revealed in her own book, ‘Raising Trump,’ that she realized her marriage was coming to an end when she was confronted by Marla.

‘This young blonde woman approached me out of the blue and said, ‘I’m Marla and I love your husband. Do you?” she recalled. ‘I said, ‘Get lost. I love my husband.”

Donald and Ivana divorced in 1992.

Tiffany was born in October 1993, and her parents married two months later. After four years together, they separated in 1997 and officially divorced in 1999. 

Marla relocated to Southern California, where she raised Tiffany as a single mom. She later followed her daughter back to the East Coast when she started college at the University of Pennsylvania.

She spent years living in New York City before she relocated to Florida to be closer to Tiffany and Michael.  

Marla never remarried, but Donald went on to tie the knot with his third wife and future first lady, Melania Trump, née Knauss, in 2005. They welcomed their son, Barron, the following year. 

The mother of one appears to have a cordial relationship with her ex-husband, and she sat with his family at Tiffany’s graduation from the University of Pennsylvania in 2016.

They likely would have been together at their daughter’s graduation from Georgetown Law School in 2020, but she wasn’t able to receive her diploma in person due to the pandemic. 

A few months later, Marla reunited with Tiffany at her ex’s Trump International Hotel in downtown Washington, D.C. 

Tiffany and Michael, the heir to the multi-billion dollar Nigerian conglomerate Boulos Enterprises, have been together since they met in Mykonos, Greece, in the summer of 2018.

They were first spotted together at the Taoray Wang show during New York Fashion Week in September 2018, and Tiffany reportedly took him to her father’s Mar-Lago estate for Thanksgiving dinner that year.

The former first daughter shared her first photo with Michael in January 2019, after they attended the White House Christmas party together.

The majority of their relationship was a long-distance one, with Tiffany attending law school at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. while Michael was based in London.

After a year together, they were spotted browsing engagement rings at the Samer Halimeh New York store in London in June 2019, but Tiffany only picked up a $663,000 diamond ‘friendship’ bracelet during the shopping trip.  

Michael was a regular fixture on the campaign trail in the run-up to the 2020 presidential election and attended a number of political events with her and her family, including appearances at the White House.  

However, he didn’t propose until January 2021, when he got down on one knee in the White House Rose Garden during former President Trump’s final days in office. 

Michael popped the question with a 13-carat emerald-cut diamond engagement ring that is believed to be worth up to a staggering $1.2 million.  

They have both spent quality time with each other’s families over the years, and Marla has forced a tight bond with Michael’s parents, Massad and Sarah Boulos.

Tiffany skipped her father’s annual New Year’s Eve bash at his Mar-a-Lago last year to spend the holidays in France with her mother and her future in-laws.
