Ivanka Trump took a private tour of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum last week, Bloomberg reports.
News of the visit, said to have taken place last Monday, comes from an unnamed person the news service reports is familiar with her visit, which was not announced publicly.
She reportedly was accompanied by her mother-in-law and father-in-law, Charles and Seryl Kushner.
Bloomberg also cites two White House aides who say that Ivanka Trump’s father, US President Donald Trump, has expressed an interest in a similar private tour.
The Trump administration’s statement issued in January for International Holocaust Remembrance Day omitted a specific mention of Jews, which raised hackles in the Jewish community in the United States and around the world.
