Kremlev paid hundreds of thousands of dollars, including for a private island and a fireworks show, according to ProPublica. The newlyweds called him “a dear friend” on Instagram afterward.
When Trump was asked about the matter in the Oval Office on Friday, he said the gift was something "very common" and "completely permissible."
"I've given wedding parties to a lot of people," Trump said.
However, he claimed that his son had said he would pay the money back.
Kremlev is the president of the International Boxing Federation and has close ties to Vladimir Putin and the organization “Healthy Fatherland,” which Ukraine has sanctioned for its alleged role in the abduction of Ukrainian children during the war.
