If you can’t get enough Trump, good news: Another one is one the way!
Ivanka Trump, who converted to Judaism in 2009, announced across her social media platforms that she is expecting her third child with real estate mogul and New York Observer owner Jared Kushner.
Trump, who owns several businesses and is an executive at her father’s the Trump Organization, already has a 4-year-old girl Arabella and a 24-month-old boy Joseph. As a fashion icon and businesswoman, she has hundreds of thousands of followers on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
Her little ones helped her announce the news by posing in a photo, posted on her Instagram account, holding the numbers one and two. Trump held the number three over her belly.
A short video on her Facebook page captured the family getting ready for the photo in adorable fashion.
Trump, who keeps kosher and observes Shabbat, has explained in the past how her Jewish family values inform her public image.
“We’re pretty observant,” she told Vogue in February. “I really find that with Judaism, it creates an amazing blueprint for family connectivity.”
Grandpa Donald – who said in the recent CNN Republican presidential debate that his daughter should be the new face of the 10 dollar bill – sent his best wishes to the family on Twitter.
