Ivanka Trump did what many daughters did on Father’s Day and post a tribute to their dads on social media. With a joint post for her father, Donald Trump, and her husband, Jared Kushner, she left heartfelt notes for the dads in her life. However, many of Trump’s diehard supporters still haven’t forgotten about Ivanka’s post from last month, in which she called her father-in-law “dad.” Keep reading for more information.

Ivanka Trump's Father's Day Post

With a collection of slides featuring both her father and her husband, Ivanka shared some memories with her family. In the caption, she honored both men in her life: "Happy Father's Day," she wrote. "Today, I honor two incredible fathers who have shaped my world in profound ways."

"To my father @realdonaldtrump — your unwavering determination, boundless vision, and deep love for family have been a guiding force in my life," she continued. "You taught me to dream boldly, work relentlessly, and never give up."

"To my husband @jaredckushner — watching you father our children with patience, strength, wisdom and so much heart fills me with endless gratitude. You are their rock, their compass, and their greatest gift," she said.

"Thank you both for the love, laughter, and legacy you create each day. Our family is deeply blessed," she finished.

Backlash Over Father-In-law 'Dad' Comment

Back in May, Ivanka shared a post from the U.S. Embassy of France's Instagram account to her own Instagram story. The post featured a photo of Charles Kushner with the caption, "Congratulations to our new U.S. Ambassador to France, Charles Kushner! The U.S. Senate approved his nomination yesterday." For her own story post, Ivanka added the caption: "Congratulations, dad! I am proud of you!"

This certainly ruffled the feathers of Donald Trump's followers, despite the fact that calling your in-laws “mom” or “dad” is usually seen as a heartfelt sign of a close relationship, not a betrayal.
