‘Wow’: Donald Trump’s eldest daughter stuns
Donald Trump’s eldest daughter, Ivanka Trump, has been seen catching waves and looking gorgeous in a two-piece black bikini.
The 43-year-old mother of three, who has noticeably stepped back from politics during her father’s second tenure as president, looked like she was having the time of her heiress life.
While the world recalibrates to accommodate Mr Trump’s tariff plans, she’s been seen on vacation in Costa Rica showing off her surfing skills.
She successfully stood up on the board, which is not bad for a girl raised in New York City.
She also managed to look beautiful while maintaining her balance.

The internet was also fairly impressed with her efforts. One person commented, “Wow,” and another said, “Beautiful.”
“Leave the woman alone! It’s clear that she’s been really into surfing recently, and this is just intruding on her privacy,” one demanded.

In January 2025, she said on the podcast Skinny Confidential that politics is a “very dark, negative business,” which is why she prefers working in the private sector.
She went on to explain that there’s a “darkness” in politics that she doesn’t want to welcome into her life, and she also wants to focus on her primary goal of being ‘the best freaking” mum she can be.
“I love policy and impact. I hate politics. And unfortunately, the two are not separable,” she said.
Ivanka did go on to explain that she understands she can be seen at the “centre of the storm” because her dad is president, but she doesn’t love the fighting that comes with politics.
“The main reason I’m not going back to serve now is because I know the cost,” she said.
Ivanka said she feels “super great about this decision” because she doesn’t want politics to impact her children.
“I also recognise now there are so many ways to have impact. Most of the compassion work happening in the world is being done outside of government,” she said.

The heiress did add that despite the “crazy” that comes along with politics, she’s never become cynical, and she believes most people are good.
She also opened up about how she was able to withstand the negativity that goes along with being in a political family, particularly the online trolling, but said she’d never been “combative” because it simply isn’t in her nature.
“I try to live my life in a way that models for my children how I want them to be. I’m really proud that I lived through a very emotional time and I kept my north star,” she said.
“I feel like I was able to maintain my composure.”
