Ivanka Trump’s Instagram Stories, however, gave some indication that her father was not only at the celebration but was also the one who organized it. One has to scroll past 20 photos on Ivanka Trump’s Instagram stories before the first snap of Donald Trump — grinning widely and posing for a picture with his granddaughter — surfaces.
“Thank you dad and Melania for arranging such a sweet celebration for Arabella!!” Ivanka posted in her second to last Instagram story on the event. The photograph showed Arabella sitting at a table between Donald and Melania Trump, with Ivanka Trump and her husband, Jared Kushner, standing behind them.
Ivanka Trump’s artful Instagramming comes after a Page Six report dropped on Friday citing two separate sources close to her who said she plans to distance herself from her father while he deals with federal charges of mishandling top-secret information.
