Chelsea Clinton and Ivanka Trump: That's what their friendship is about

One is the daughter of former Democratic US President Bill Clinton (71, "There's a lot to do"), the other is the daughter of incumbent Republican President Donald Trump (71). Once Chelsea Clinton (38) and Ivanka Trump (36) were friends. But the different political views of her fathers seem to have distracted the two women. In addition, in 2016, her parents' tough presidential campaign has certainly helped cool the relationship between the famous daughters.

"She supported a policy I disagree with"

At a performance on "Late Show with Stephen Colbert" on Tuesday, Chelsea Clinton avoided the question of whether she and Ivanka were still friends, but then had to admit that the two "have not spoken for a long time". "It's clear that she supported a policy and decisions that I disagree with," Chelsea continued. "I spoke loudly against President Trump."



Chelsea Clinton makes Trump's foreign policy sad

Clinton continued, "I am just very sad that we have arrived at a time when we have a president who has such a heartless disregard for a well thought-out, coherent and expert foreign policy." Ivanka has been criticized because of her role in the White House as a special advisor to the president - many doubted above all their professional qualifications.

More than a year ago, Ivanka described Chelsea as a "very good friend". In an interview with "ABC News," the Trump subsidiary said Chelsea had been a friend long before her parents' presidential campaign, "of course she's a friend of mine afterward, too." And even Chelsea expressed similar in 2015. At that time she said: "Friendship is always more important than politics." This view seems to have changed in both meanwhile.
