Paris Hilton was recently seen basking under the sunny skies of St. Barths on Tuesday, turning her vacation into a delightful family reunion with a rare sighting of her brother, Barron Hilton.

The 44-year-old socialite, who carries the legacy of being the great-granddaughter of the legendary hotelier Conrad Hilton, relished a family retreat alongside her younger brother, Barron, age 36, who is known for maintaining a low profile.

Paris and Barron are among the four Hilton siblings born to Rick Hilton, a prominent hotel industry figure, and Kathy Hilton, famed for her role in “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.” The couple, who tied the knot in 1979, raised their children amid one of America’s most famous families.

The presence of their other siblings, Nicky, 42, and Conrad, 31, remains a mystery as they were not observed during the trip.

In a pleasant surprise for fans, Barron was accompanied by his wife, Tessa Gräfin von Walderdorff, whom he wed in 2018. Tessa is known for her rare appearances in the public eye, making this family outing all the more noteworthy.

Paris kept things beach-glam in a surf-style wetsuit jacket, mini skirt, and oversized shades, while Barron kept it casual in swim trunks, a loose shirt, and a hat pulled low.

Named after their grandfather Barron Hilton, the 36-year-old was born in November 1989 and found himself in the headlines in 2008 after being arrested for a DUI.

He was hit with multiple misdemeanor charges, including driving with a blood-alcohol level over .08 and using a fake ID, after deputies determined he was carrying false identification.

The case continued to follow him for years as legal proceedings unfolded in the aftermath of the incident.

In 2011, a Los Angeles Superior Court jury ordered him to pay $4.9 million to a gas station attendant he struck with his car during the same DUI episode. 

Barron eventually shifted gears, earning his degree from Loyola Marymount University in 2015 and leaving his past legal troubles behind.

After graduation, he explored the entertainment world, taking on roles as an actor, director, and producer, and working on a handful of independent film projects between 2015 and 2019. 

Barron’s life took a dramatic turn in 2016 when he met Gräfin von Walderdorff, a member of the German noble family Walderdorff, while vacationing in Saint Barthélemy.

By birth, she is a member of the House of Walderdorff, and a descendant of the Löwenstein-Wertheim-Rosenberg branch of the House of Wittelsbach.

The couple quickly became inseparable, and two years later, they tied the knot on the island in June 2018 in a private ceremony attended by close family, including Paris, who shared a heartfelt family photo from the celebration.

Since their wedding, Barron and Tessa have expanded their family, welcoming their first child, daughter Milou Alizée, in March 2020. 

Meanwhile, Paris has been enjoying her own family getaway in St. Barths with husband Carter Reum and their two children. 

Their son Phoenix, who will turn three in January, and daughter London, two, have been soaking up the sun alongside their famous mom. 

Over Thanksgiving, Paris shared a heartfelt message with her nearly 30 million followers, writing, ‘My heart is full this #Thanksgiving. Watching Carter be the sweetest dad, Phoenix discover the world, and little London shine brighter every day, it’s the kind of love I dreamed of my whole life.’

She added, ‘I’m grateful always for my family,’ highlighting the close-knit bond they share.

Paris has also opened up about her desire for privacy with her children. 

After Phoenix’s birth via surrogacy in 2023, she revealed that her family didn’t know about the pregnancy until a week after he was born. 

On her This Is Paris podcast, she explained, ‘Not even my mom, my sisters, my best friend knew until he was over a week old. It was really nice to have that with Carter, be our own journey together. I just feel like my life has been so public, and I’ve never really had anything be just mine.

‘So when we were talking about it, I really felt that I wanted this journey to be for us only.’

As for her siblings, Conrad, has quietly been building his own life away from the spotlight, focusing on his career and private ventures. 

Nicky Rothschild balances her family life with her husband James Rothschild and their three children: Lily‑Grace Victoria, 9; Theodora “Teddy” Marilyn, 7; and Chasen, 3. 

Nicky continues to work in fashion and philanthropy while occasionally giving fans a peek into her elegant world through social media and public appearances.
