Ivanka Trump's teenage daughter, Arabella, who bears a striking resemblance to her mother, reportedly aspires to "be like her mom" following their joint appearance at the White House state dinner.
Ivanka, 44, recently enjoyed a memorable mother-daughter occasion with 15-year-old Arabella when they attended President Donald Trump's lavish White House state dinner honoring Chinese President Xi Jinping and his wife, Peng Liyuan, on Thursday, Sept. 24. Arabella - the eldest of three children born to Ivanka and her husband Jared Kushner - is seldom spotted in public, but her recent presence at such a high-profile gathering provided insight into her private world.
It comes after an emotional Kai Trump was left in tears over college struggles and hasn't eaten in days.

Ivanka occasionally shares snapshots of her daughter's activities on social media, highlighting Arabella's interests, which range from horseback riding to Brazilian jiu-jitsu.
A new report from the Daily Mail, citing an unnamed source, indicates that Ivanka is allowing her daughter to attend more events and that the daughter reportedly "wants to be like her mom."

Arabella is the oldest child of Ivanka Trump and businessman Jared Kushner.
The two tied the knot in October 2009 before welcoming their first child in 2011. Their second child, Joseph Frederick Kushner, is about to turn 13, while the youngest, Theodore James, was born in 2016.
The Kushner-Trump children were raised Jewish, with Arabella celebrating her bat mitzvah in June 2023.

At 15, Arabella Kushner bears a striking resemblance to her mother, Ivanka.
Throughout the summer months, the president's teenage granddaughter has been appearing more regularly at Trump family gatherings, from the White House state dinner to the UFC Freedom 250 fight night.
She participated in the state dinner celebrations, including the glamorous evening where senior government figures, technology CEOs, AI leaders, and media personalities gathered to honor the Chinese leader.

The teenager was praised for her poise as she joined her mom during Chinese President Xi Jinping's recent visit to the United States.
Arabella was seated in the front row as spectators remarked that the youngster had a better seat than several high-ranking members of her grandfather's administration, including Pete Hegseth and Marco Rubio.
She made headlines for flaunting her fluency in Mandarin Chinese while interacting with world leaders as a youngster.

According to a source close to the Trump family who spoke with the Daily Mail, "Ivanka is very involved in" Arabella's life "as well as with all her kids."
The insider revealed that "Arabella is only in the spotlight when there are things she actually thinks are cool and wants to go to, like UFC fights, random sporting events and things like that."
Arabella has reportedly "started to ask to tag along to things more and more" as she steps into the spotlight.

The teenager has also stepped into the spotlight alongside her grandfather, Donald Trump.
Arabella, an equestrian who practices Brazilian jiu-jitsu in her spare time, was spotted attending the US Open with the 80-year-old president in 2025.
The youngster remained composed as Trump was met with loud boos from the stadium crowd.

The 10th grader does not have a public social media account, unlike her cousin, Kai Trump, who maintains a vlog on YouTube.
On Arabella's 15th birthday, Ivanka shared a special message to her on Instagram, which read, in part, "You amaze me every day with your kindness, curiosity, brilliance, and strength. I am endlessly proud of your dedication, your poise, and the way you move through the world with both confidence and compassion."
While Arabella may be the president's granddaughter, the details of her day-to-day life remain a mystery.
