While Ivanka Trump has been enjoying her summer break, documenting her family vacation and attending Jeff Bezos’ star-studded wedding, she’s also made time to champion a personal family milestone.
Ivanka has shown support for her brother Eric Trump’s upcoming book. The former presidential adviser took to social media to promote Eric’s newly announced memoir, a deep dive into the inner workings of what he calls “America’s most powerful family.”

Eric, who is Executive Vice President of the Trump Organization, opens the doors to his world, blending memories from his childhood in the Trump household with political and corporate stories from the frontlines of the family empire.
The official synopsis describes a life intertwined with legacy, business, and opposition. "From his earliest memories of growing up as part of the Trump family to pivotal roles in the 2016 and 2024 presidential elections, spearheading strategies to combat lawfare, and leading the Trump Organization, Eric has been deeply invested in all aspects of his family’s legacy. As one of his father’s original apprentices, Eric has always strived to build on that foundation.”

It details everything from FBI raids at Mar-a-Lago to near-assassination attempts, legal entanglements, and media scrutiny. “From Russiagate to cold and corrupt courtrooms, the fake news media, censorship, and character smears—this wasn’t just an attack on a president, or even his family. America itself was under siege,” the synopsis continues.
For Eric, it's a platform to "offer an unfiltered look at the highs and lows of life in the Trump world," including managing a multi-billion-dollar business empire and reflecting on his behind-the-scenes role on 'The Celebrity Apprentice' and the campaign trail.
Inside Ivanka and Eric's relationship:
Ivanka’s public show of support is more than just a family obligation. It’s part of a long history of mutual encouragement between the Trump siblings. She and Eric have remained close, even as their professional paths diverged.
While Ivanka entered the political spotlight as a senior White House aide during her father’s presidency, Eric took the reins at the Trump Organization alongside their brother Donald Trump Jr. Ivanka once reflected on their upbringing in a 2004 interview with New York Magazine.

They’ve always made sure that we lived within some realm of reality. I don’t know how they figured it out, but they knew the perfect way to give us what we needed without it being gratuitous," she said.
She’s long spoken of their teamwork, especially when it comes to business. In her 2009 book 'The Trump Card: Playing to Win in Work and Life,' she wrote, “Don, Eric and I are always sizing up our ‘competition’ on the other side of the table to determine which one of us might be best suited to a particular negotiation.”

Meanwhile, Eric has been vocal in his admiration for his sister. In an April 2017 interview with CBS This Morning, he said, “Well she's beautiful. She's beautiful in so many ways. She's smart, she's intelligent and she's full of class. You know I think that's why people love Ivanka.”
He has consistently praised her across media platforms, including social media, where he often posts photos and messages in support of her initiatives.
