Ivanka Trump and husband Jared Kushner just took a romantic vacation to Iceland together, but social media users are refusing to let them live down their latest extravagant, travel-related purchase.
The president’s eldest daughter has been letting her fans, followers, and other internet users in on her summer adventures this year, more recently sharing pictures of herself and her businessman husband, Jared, vacationing in Iceland. The snaps from the professional photoshoot they had quickly reminded social media users of an extremely controversial purchase they just made on Sazan Island to build a luxury resort; therefore, it didn’t take people long to respond to her new post with even more backlash. Read more about her new vacation photos and the internet’s response below.
Ivanka Trump Posts New Photos Of Her & Jared Kushner On Their Iceland Vacation
The end of summer is drawing closer, and one family who has certainly had an eventful one is the former presidential advisor and her family of five, as she’s been sharing more and more pictures of their summer adventures.
Earlier this week, on Thursday, August 6th, Ivanka shared a collection of professional pictures of her and Jared in Iceland, which was one of their latest summer vacation stops. The couple posed in front of a scenic area in the country, which included some greenery, a waterfall, and some picturesque mountains behind them. She wore a green military jacket with some skin-tight leggings and riding boots, while Jared had on some coordinating army green pants and a blue pullover jacket. The pictures were a little more intimate, with him holding her and them sharing a kiss.
The couple’s three children, Arabella, Joseph, and Theodore, joined in on the pictures as well, with the photography session, and in another post she shared of them swimming in Iceland’s famous Blue Lagoon.
Social Media Users React To Ivanka’s Vacation Post After She & Jared Bought Island Land
After she shared her Icelandic vacation photos on Instagram this week, the businesswoman and author received a lot of supportive comments from her fans and her family’s big supporters.
However, for many other social media users, it reminded them of the fact that the family has been very vacation-oriented these days, as a few months ago, reports revealed that they had purchased and made plans to build a $1B luxury resort on Sazan Island, a 1,400-hectare private island in the middle of the Mediterranean and off the coast of Albania. Their plans have received both in-person and online protests from locals and environmental groups, who have concerns about their effects on the environment and the lifestyle of surrounding residents as a whole.
In an interview, Ivanka suggested that she and Jared had ‘discovered’ the island by going for a swim nearby, and described the massive construction as a ‘passion project.’ Therefore, after seeing her family’s new, clean-cut vacation photos, users couldn’t help but be triggered into bringing up their controversial island land purchase again.
“Uh-oh,” responded political commentator Candace Owens on X. “Looks like the Kushners swam and ‘discovered ‘ another island. Beware Iceland. They might start another ‘passion project.'”
“Are you gonna buy this land too?” asked an Instagram user.
“Iceland better watch out,” a user added.
“Leave Iceland alone,” responded a user, as another commented, “Oh look, you discovered more land to develop!”
One user called Ivanka and Jared “colonizers,” with another writing, “Did you swim there and decide to buy it?”
