Early life and education
Ivanka Trump, now 42, was born on October 30, 1981, in Manhattan, New York City, to Donald Trump and Ivana Trump. She is Jewish and has German, Scottish, and Czech descent.
She grew up with her two older brothers, Donald Jr. and Eric, and later her half-siblings, Tiffany and Barron. Ivanka’s parents divorced when she was nine. She attended the Chapin School in Manhattan until she was 15, then transferred to Choate Rosemary Hall in Connecticut.
After graduating from Choate in 2000, Ivanka attended Georgetown University for two years before transferring to the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, where she graduated magna cum laude with a degree in economics in 2004. Ivanka was raised Presbyterian but converted to Judaism in 2009 before marrying Jared Kushner.
Personal life
Ivanka Trump married Jared Kushner, a real estate developer and investor, on October 25, 2009. The couple met through mutual friends in 2005 and began dating shortly thereafter.
Ivanka and Jared have three children: Arabella Rose Kushner, born July 2011; Joseph Frederick Kushner, born October 2013; and Theodore James Kushner, born March 2016.
Before marrying Jared, Ivanka was in relationships with Greg Hersch and James “Bingo” Gubelmann. Ivanka’s conversion to Judaism was a major step, and she now identifies as an Orthodox Jew.
Career
Ivanka Trump began her professional career as a model, walking the runway for famous designers and appearing in major advertising campaigns. After graduating from Wharton, she moved into business, joining the Trump Organization as Executive Vice President of Development and Acquisitions.
Ivanka has been instrumental in expanding the company’s real estate interests. She was instrumental in the development of the Trump International Hotel in Washington, DC. She launched her jewelry line, Ivanka Trump Fine Jewelry, in 2007, followed by clothing, handbags, shoes, and accessories.
In 2017, Ivanka stepped away from her business ventures to become a senior advisor to her father, President Donald Trump. She focuses on economic empowerment, job creation, and workforce development in this role. Ivanka is also the author of two books, “The Trump Card: Playing to Win in Work and Life” and “Women Who Work: Rewriting the Rules for Success.”
Net worth
Ivanka Trump’s net worth is estimated to be $350 million. Her fortune comes from business ventures, including fashion lines, real estate investments, and a role in the Trump Organization. Ivanka and her husband, Jared Kushner, have significant investments in real estate and other ventures.
Argumentative
Ivanka Trump has been embroiled in a number of controversies, particularly during her tenure as a senior adviser to her father, President Donald Trump. One significant controversy was her use of a personal email account for government business, which drew comparisons to Hillary Clinton’s email scandal.
Ivanka claimed she was unaware of the regulations but faced criticism for her actions. Another major controversy was her involvement in the Trump administration’s family separation policy at the US-Mexico border.
Ivanka has publicly opposed the policy, but critics say her actions do not match her words, and she has faced backlash for not doing more to influence her father’s administration to change the policy.
Ivanka’s business has also come under scrutiny. Her fashion brand has faced allegations of using sweatshop labor in overseas factories. Reports have suggested that workers at these factories are subjected to poor working conditions and low wages.
Additionally, her brand has been accused of copying other designers’ designs, leading to legal battles and settlements. Her involvement in the Trump administration has raised questions about conflicts of interest, especially given that she continues to own her businesses while serving in a government role.
Critics say her position allows her to benefit financially from her political influence, despite Ivanka’s claims that she adheres to ethical principles.
Ivanka’s involvement in international diplomacy, such as attending the G20 summit and other high-level meetings, has also been controversial. Critics have argued that she lacks the experience and qualifications required for such roles and that her presence undermines the professionalism of US diplomacy.
