Ivanka Trump parties with nepo baby model who made hateful claim against dad Donald
It seems as though Ivanka Trump doesn't hold a grudge, as the First Daughter was spotted partying with a nepo baby who previously made a hateful claim against her dad. Photographers caught the blonde beauty, 43, enjoying a night out in New York City with her husband, Jared Kushner, on Thursday evening. The couple attended the birthday celebration of his brother Joshua Kushner at Katz's Deli in the Lower East Side of Manhattan. They rubbed shoulders with a slew of famous faces at the party - including Cindy Crawford, her husband, Rande Gerber, and their model daughter Kaia Gerber. Kaia, 23, famously spoke out against Ivanka's father Donald Trump ahead of the 2024 election. She shared a strong-worded post to social media in October 2024 encouraging her followers to vote for his competition, Kamala Harris. The brunette beauty wrote at the time, 'In the words of Michelle Obama, "If we don't get this election right, your wife, your daughter, your mother, we as women will become collateral damage to your rage. So are you, as men, prepared to look into the eyes of the women you love and tell them you supported this assault?"' Kaia added, 'Right answers only. VOTE!!!!!!!' alongside a snap of her posing with her mail-in ballot that showed she had indeed voted for Kamala, as well as a collage of images of the former Vice President at a rally. Ivanka and Kaia seemed to put their past differences aside as they celebrated Joshua's birthday together in Manhattan. Katz's Deli is best known for being featured in the beloved 1989 film When Harry met Sally. It acted as the backdrop for the iconic scene where Meg Ryan 's character Sally faked an orgasm while sitting across from Billy Crystal's Harry, which was followed by the now-famous line: 'I'll have what she's having.' Ivanka flaunted her toned figure for the occasion, donning a tiny black gown that left her long legs on full display. The dress featured a plunging neckline, tight bodice and ruffled skirt. She accessorized with a black clutch, some flashy earrings, and strappy heeled sandals. Jared, for his part, wore some black trousers, blue sweater and black dress shoes. A bleary-eyed Ivanka walked hand-in-hand with her husband as they exited the acclaimed eatery. As for Kaia, she opted for a haltered, red, polka-dot midi dress and white flats that showcased her svelte physique. She shared a strong-worded post to social media in October 2024 encouraging her followers to vote for his competition, Kamala Harris Birthday boy Joshua, 40, donned black jeans, a white T-shirt, and an unbuttoned black shirt, while his wife, Karlie Kloss, 32, sported a chic black dress that had a thigh-high slit Cindy, 59, dressed casually for the party, opting for a pair of blue jeans and a black top that she tucked into the bottoms. Her husband Rande, 63, wore a black, button-down shirt, gray jeans, and matching gray sneakers. Cindy became one of the world's most popular supermodels in the '80s and '90s and Kaia has been following in her footsteps ever since. She has also dabbled in acting with roles in American Horror Story and the 2024 dark comedy Shell. Also at the party was Joshua's wife, Karlie Kloss, as well as musician Diplo and acclaimed fashion designer Diane Von Furstenberg. Birthday boy Joshua, 40, donned black jeans, a white T-shirt, and an unbuttoned black shirt, while his wife, 32, who is currently expecting her third child, sported a chic black dress that had off-the-shoulder sleeves and a thigh-high slit.

Editor picks June 2025: The products are team are loving this month
Every month, our shopping writers and editors come together with a list of products they love and recommend — here are our editors' picks for the month of June. From travel must-haves to beauty favorites, here's everything our team is loving this month — and why you'll love them too. Bowers & Wilkins Px3 The latest pair of Bowers & Wilkins are well worth the hype, with a comfy fit and booming sound. They shine best for their balanced, well-rounded audio and comfortable design — one that didn't budge or hurt even after hours of wear. Battery life is stellar too, and the ANC is a big improvement over the last gen. Bowers & Wilkins truly outdid themselves with this new pair of headphones — they're now a daily staple in my work tote. Nishka Dhawan, U.S. Deputy Commerce Editor $449 Shop Beek Pelican Leather Platform Sandal These sandals! I am so ready for summer and Beeks has always been a go-to for cute footwear. I'm particularly into these gold platform ones this year! Comfortable, cute, and good for the girlies with bad feet (like me!). Julia Remillard, U.S. Commerce Writer $280 Shop Polite Society Highlight Society highlighter Available in four colors, this punchy highlighter adds just the right amount of glow to my skin. I own all four shades and love that each powder is buildable to my liking. The shine isn't too overwhelming and catches the sunlight at just the right angle. It lasts all day too, without the need to reapply. Nishka Dhawan, U.S. Deputy Commerce Editor $34 Shop BÉIS The Carry-On Roller As a travel writer in another life, I have wheeled my fair share of fabulous suitcases around the world — so I feel safe confirming that the BÉIS The Carry-On Roller is 100 percent worth the hype! It's got a built-in weight indicator, and the design is super thoughtful. It has a durable hardshell, glides on any surface easily, and is designed with organization in mind. I'm obsessed with the multiple pockets and pouches with space for everything from shoes to laundry. And it is absolutely beautiful in so many colors, too! Tanya Sharma, U.S. Commerce Writer $268 Shop NÜTRL Vodka Seltzer (Strawberry) There are very few hard seltzers I choose to drink, but NÜTRL's Strawberry is my all-time summer favorite. It's refreshing, gluten-free, and contains only 100 calories per can. The strawberry flavor packs a punch and is surprisingly authentic — especially compared to the chemically flavored options most other seltzers have. Side note: this is also one of the only hard seltzers I genuinely feel good drinking — I never wake up with a hangover. Nishka Dhawan, U.S. Deputy Commerce Editor $7.99 Shop ECOVACS DEEBOT T20 Keeping my studio apartment clean has never been easier with this robo vacuum! It has incredible ratings and has lived up to the hype with its app controlled mapping. It's so good I even got one for my family to use too Julia Remillard, U.S. Commerce Writer $329 Shop Gardencup Although salad is my usual lunchtime go-to, I do like to shake things up when I can. Gardencup makes that easy with its wide range of leafy blends (everything arrives chilled and fresh), with plenty of delish options for a vegetarian like yours truly. The Veggie Delight Sampler includes six flavorful options, like the insanely good (and filling) Mediterranean Escape and summery Caprese Veggie. It breaks down to about $13 per salad, which rivals many popular salad chains. Tanya Sharma, U.S. Commerce Writer $79.99 Shop Homebody Luxe Sofa As an avid Netflix binge watcher having comfortable lounge furniture has been more and more important lately to me. Homebody answered all my prayers with this loveseat sofa! It's deep, extremely comfy, and so chic. Plus, for a tiny apartment like mine it has been a holy grail find. Julia Remillard, U.S. Commerce Writer $3740 Shop PHLUR Summer Skin Duo PHLUR is known for its iconic Missing Person fragrance, which I also love, but there is no better warm-weather cocktail than this duo right now. Consisting of sweet and sultry Peach Skin and tropical Beach Skin, these body sprays are basically summer in a bottle. They layer really well but also have amazing staying power on their own. Perfect for a quick refresh on super hot days! Tanya Sharma, U.S. Commerce Writer $66 (was $76) Shop
