Ivanka Trump Breaks Down In Tears While Discussing Her Late Mother
Bartlett had many topics he wanted to discuss with Ivanka, including what it was like growing up in one of the most well-known families in the country. Talking specifically about her late mother, Ivana Trump, who passed away in 2022, Ivanka even got emotional, tearing up as she described her mother as “extraordinary.”
“My mother taught me a lot about bringing intention to what you do. Being a child of accomplished parents, most people thought that I would lack the ambition, the preparedness,” Trump explained.
“But my mother taught me that being underestimated is not a bad thing, it’s a very powerful thing actually,” she continued. “And it almost always worked to the detriment of the person who underestimated me.”
