Chelsea Clinton isn’t holding again her emotions about her former pal, Ivanka Trump!
It is loopy to assume there was a time when Bill and Hillary Clinton’s daughter and Donald Trump’s daughter had been greatest mates, however they had been for years till the 2016 presidential election. They even gushed about one another in interviews, with Chelsea telling Vogue in 2015:
“I still consider her [Ivanka] a very close friend, and she considers me as well. We have a great relationship. She’s always aware of everyone around her and ensuring that everyone is enjoying the moment. It’s an awareness that in some ways reminds me of my dad, and his ability to increase the joy of the room. There’s nothing skin-deep about Ivanka.”

For her half, Ivanka echoed related sentiments to Harper’s Bazaar in August 2016 – three months earlier than the election:
“I still consider her a very close friend, and she considers me as well. We have a great relationship. I’m not running for public office, and neither is she, so of course we’re still friends.”
While the 2 girls insisted political variations wouldn’t get in the best way of their bond, they did in the long run. And now, the 42-year-old is shedding some gentle on her and Ivanka’s friendship. When requested about her relationship (or lack thereof now) with the 40-year-old on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen Thursday, Chelsea didn’t hesitate to get a dig in and stated:
“I would say we were friends. She’s not the person I called when I was curious about something for my kids or if I was debating a life decision, but we were definitely friends. And then she went to the dark side.”
True that!
Chelsea shared that they final spoke in November 2016. However, the mother did clear up a declare from Ivanka’s husband, Jared Kushner, in his new memoir Breaking History. The 41-year-old wrote within the guide that Donald allegedly requested Ivanka to achieve out to Chelsea to ask the complete Clinton household for dinner to develop a “cordial relationship” after the election:
“He even told Ivanka to invite Hillary and Bill for dinner in the coming weeks. Ivanka did call Chelsea, but days later Hillary backed [Green Party presidential nominee] Jill Stein’s challenge to the election, and Trump ended his outreach.”
But Chelsea insinuated in her interview with Andy Cohen that Jared lied, saying:
“It is true that I spoke to Ivanka in November 2016, it’s the last time I have spoken to her. But I do not recall being invited to dinner.”
This isn’t the primary time Chelsea has spoken about her falling out with Ivanka, saying on WWHL n 2020 she had “no interest in being friends with someone who is not only complicit but actively taking part in this administration’s every day collision of cruelty and incompetence.” You can ch-ch-check out her interview with Andy (beneath):
