Ivanka Trump Shares Photos from Grandmother's 100th Birthday Celebration
The family gathered to honor Marie Zelníčková, the mother of the late Ivana Trump.
Marie Zelníčková, the mother of the late Ivana Trump, celebrated her 100th birthday last weekend with a family gathering hosted at the Trump family home in Miami. Ivanka Trump shared photos from the milestone event on Instagram, highlighting the resemblance among Donald Trump's grandchildren.
A large family portrait featured Zelníčková surrounded by her grandchildren Ivanka, Donald Trump Jr., and Eric Trump, along with their partners Jared Kushner, Bettina Trump, and Lara Trump, and their combined ten children. Ivanka and Jared have three children, Eric and Lara have two, and Donald Trump Jr. has five.
The celebration included a cake shaped like the number 100, with Zelníčková seen seated behind it.
Ivanka wore an orange maxi dress with a white floral pattern for the occasion. Her daughter Arabella wore a green gown, while her sons matched in green polo shirts and white trousers. Jared Kushner opted for brown pants and a white t-shirt.
Other photos showed Ivanka and Jared together, and Ivanka with her grandmother and brothers. The celebration also included activities for the younger children, such as a water slide and time by the pool.
"100 years of life, love, family and memories," Ivanka captioned the post. "Last Saturday, we celebrated my grandmother’s 100th birthday at our home in Miami surrounded by her three grandchildren and all ten of her great grandchildren. It was incredibly special, a beautiful reflection of a family and legacy spanning four generations."
Ivanka added that her mother, Ivana Trump, was "deeply missed" but her "love and presence was felt throughout the day in the stories we shared and in the family she loved so fiercely." Ivana Trump passed away in 2022.
"Babi, your century of love has shaped generations and lives in every one of us," Ivanka concluded. "Celebrating you was an honor, a joy and a reminder of the extraordinary legacy you have created. Happy 100th birthday. We love you beyond words."
Donald Trump's other daughters, Tiffany Trump and Barron Trump, were not present at the celebration. This event followed a White House state dinner for Chinese President Xi Jinping, attended by Ivanka, Tiffany, and Lara Trump.
