Ivanka Trump shares a gushing photo tribute to husband Jared Kushner on Valentine’s Day – complete with snaps of the pair kissing in a photo booth and smooching on the beach during a surfing session
Ivanka Trump celebrated Valentine’s Day with a splashy tribute to her husband of 14 years, Jared Kushner, including romantic snaps of them kissing.
The former White House senior adviser, 42, posted to Instagram on Wednesday a snapshot of herself hugging Jared, 43, during a surfing lesson in Costa Rica in June.
‘Happy Valentine’s Day!’ she captioned the image, which shows them holding surfboards from the Surfer Factory, a surfing school based in the Central American country.
Ivanka also shared photos of herself with Jared on her Instagram Stories in honor of February 14, starting with a photo of them at Jeff Bezos’ 60th birthday party last month.

The couple flew to Los Angeles for the party from their home on Indian Creek Island near Miami, Florida, where Jeff recently purchased not one but two properties.
Ivanka stunned in a black and gold beaded halter dress, which she later revealed was a vintage Roberto Cavalli design from his Fall/Winter 2006 collection.

The PDA may have gotten some groans from their three kids — Arabella, 12, Joseph, 10, and Theodore, 7 — who were rejected as they hugged.
Ivanka added a stack of three photos taken during Arabella’s bat mitzvah in June, a month before her 12th birthday.
The mother of three wore a $5,000 Jenny Packham for the milestone celebration, while her husband wore a brown suit paired with a white button-down.
In the first photo, the couple is seen smiling for the camera. In the second dip, Jared playfully dunks his wife. In the third and last photo they can be seen kissing.
Ivanka also shared footage of a pas de deux (ballet duet) from Preljocaj’s ballet Le Parc to wish her followers a ‘Happy Valentine’s Day!’

The former first daughter’s posts on Feb. 14 come a day after she got all excited for Galentine’s Day celebrations.
She didn’t reveal where she was going, but she did post a photo of herself modeling a bright pink brocade dress with a square neckline and long sleeves hanging off her shoulders.
Ivanka accessorized the look with a pair of pearl and diamond earrings and her cushion-cut diamond engagement ring, which is said to be worth more than $500,000.
She showed off her pink lipstick as she puckered and made a kissy face as she took the mirror selfie.
‘Happy Galentine’s Day!’ she wrote.
Galentine’s Day has taken on a life of its own since it was introduced in 2010 by Amy Poehler’s Parks and Recreation character Leslie Knope, although it’s unclear if Ivanka was a fan of the hit NBC sitcom.
The unofficial holiday is meant to be a celebration of women’s empowerment and friendship, regardless of relationship status.
Ivanka’s Galentine’s Day post came shortly after Jared confirmed he would not join his father-in-law Donald Trump’s administration if he won the 2024 presidential election because he was focused on his family.

Jared confirmed on February 13 that he would not join his father-in-law Donald Trump’s administration if he won the 2024 presidential election because he was focused on his family.
Jared, who was one of former President Trump’s top White House advisers during his first term, told the Axios BFD conference in Miami on Tuesday that he was enjoying life in the Sunshine State with Ivanka and their three children.
The businessman said he planned to continue working in private equity even if his father-in-law returns to work. “I have made it very clear that at this stage of my life my desire is to focus on my business.”
Jared launched Affinity Partners in the summer of 2021, just months after leaving the White House. He explained on Tuesday that he made “long-term” commitments when the company was founded.
Jared and Ivanka’s time as unpaid White House advisers in the Trump administration raised ethical concerns due to potential conflicts of interest.
The couple earned between $172 million and $640 million in outside income while working in the White House.
Six months after President Trump left office, Jared secured a $2 billion investment in his private equity firm from a Saudi sovereign wealth fund led by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, raising further questions.
The crown prince was a close ally of Jared during his time in the Trump administration.
According to a Reuters report, Jared’s firm received commitments of more than $3 billion at the end of 2021 alone, despite his lack of private equity experience.
Information about specific investors was not disclosed, but Affinity targeted U.S. institutions and foreign investment institutions.
