Ivanka Trump continues to admire Taylor Swift despite father's 'hate'

US President Donald Trump's daughter Ivanka Trump was prominent among over three million likes when Taylor Swift took to Instagram to share her thoughts on the Toy Story 5 song “I Knew It, I Knew You”.

"Writing this song felt like a musical departure and coming home at the same time. Creating something for Jessie was a new challenge and also felt like second nature all at once. And being a @toystory kid from the age of 5 till now… is an adventure I plan to be on, to infinity and beyond," Swift wrote on Instagram.

Ivanka Trump, Natalie Portman, Reese Witherspoon and many other celebrities liked Taylor Swift's post. 

Ivanka's like might come as a surprise to some people as her father, Donald Trump, has criticized the singer for not taking his side in the US presidential election.

In 2024, the then Republican presidential candidate leveled an attack against Taylor Swift, declaring his "hate" for her just days after the pop mega-star endorsed his Democratic opponent, Kamala Harris.

In an all-caps posting on his Truth Social media account, Trump wrote, "I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!"

Immediately following the Trump-Harris debate, Swift had informed her 284 million Instagram followers that she planned to vote for Harris, the then US vice president, "because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them."

However, Ivanka seems to overlook her father's political differences with Taylor Swift and continued to admire the mega pop star.
