Ivanka Trump, the daughter of President Donald Trump, surprised many of her followers this week by promoting a book written by a well-known critic of her father. She shared Glennon Doyle’s 2020 memoir Untamed on Instagram, a move that sparked interest given Doyle’s outspoken views against Donald Trump.
Who Is Glennon Doyle?
Glennon Doyle is a best-selling author and activist who openly supported Kamala Harris during the 2020 US presidential election. She was vocal in her opposition to Donald Trump, once writing on Instagram, “If Trump wins, we lose.” She also expressed fears about women’s rights being rolled back under his administration.
Her memoir Untamed discusses personal growth, breaking free from societal expectations, and embracing one’s true self. It tells the story of navigating divorce, forming a new family, and learning that a family’s strength lies in authenticity and emotional connection.
Ivanka’s Instagram Post Gains Attention
Ivanka, who has largely stepped away from politics and the MAGA movement in recent years, shared a photo of the book with the caption, “This week in Miami.” The post included highlights from her recent activities, such as reading, golfing, working out, fishing, and spending time with family.
The post stood out not just for the lifestyle content but also for the book recommendation. Doyle’s memoir is deeply personal and reflects themes that may resonate with Ivanka’s current phase of life—focused more on family and personal growth than politics.
Distance from Politics
Ivanka served as an advisor to her father during his first term in the White House. However, she has increasingly distanced herself from his political ventures and public appearances related to the MAGA movement. Her recent social media activity reflects a shift toward a more private, family-oriented lifestyle.
A Bestseller with a Message
Untamed is a New York Times bestseller and widely praised for its honest take on womanhood and self-liberation. It encourages readers—especially women—to shed the expectations placed upon them and live life more authentically.
By recommending Doyle’s book, Ivanka may be signaling a broader change in her personal outlook, choosing inspiration over alignment with past political divides.
