Forget policy speeches and press briefings — Ivanka Trump just broke the internet in a black bikini and cheeky wetsuit.
The former first daughter, 43, sizzled her way back into the spotlight with a jaw-dropping surfside vacation in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica — and every curve, wave, and smile had fans raving. Whether she was carving the ocean in a skin-tight wetsuit or walking the beach in a barely-there black bikini, Ivanka looked like she walked straight off a Sports Illustrated set. This wasn't just a vacation. It was a full-on glow-up.
Surf's Up — And So Is Ivanka's Confidence
Photographed on April 15, Ivanka hit the Costa Rican surf in a high-neck, long-sleeved black-and-white wetsuit that showed off her famously sculpted figure — especially from behind. Her toned legs, blonde ponytail, and easy athleticism had beachgoers and social media alike completely captivated.
Even before she hit the waves, she was spotted taking a lesson with a surf instructor while her kids — Arabella, 13, Joseph, 11, and Theodore, 9 — watched nearby. Onlookers said she looked calm, focused, and clearly at home in the water.
Later, Ivanka paired her wetsuit with a short black skirt while mingling barefoot with other families in the sand. It was equal parts glam and grounded — a far cry from the White House briefings she once attended in stilettos.
Fan Frenzy: 'She's Gorgeous!!!!'
Social media was quick to crown her queen of the surf.
"She is truly one of the most beautiful women," gushed one admirer, according to She Finds. "I saw her in a swimsuit at the Beverly Hills Hotel a few years back. She is perfect."
Others chimed in saying "Great figure!" and "She's gorgeous!!!!" as the comments flooded in across Page Six's social media page and Instagram. While political discourse once defined her public image, Ivanka's latest posts show she's clearly flipping the narrative — and doing it on her terms.
Jiu-Jitsu Queen and Surf Star? Believe It
The photos weren't a fluke — Ivanka's body is the product of serious discipline.
She's been training in jiu-jitsu with Gisele Bündchen's boyfriend, Joaquim Valente, and his brothers, Gui and Pedro, known as the Valente Brothers. In a video posted by the instructors, Ivanka — dressed in a white gi and sporting a blue belt — demonstrated powerful sparring techniques with confidence and control.
The belt color isn't just for show. Earning blue in jiu-jitsu typically takes 2 to 3 years of serious training. And Ivanka didn't shy away from showing off her skills — or the discipline it takes to earn them.
From White House to Wellness: 'I Hate Politics'
Ivanka's transformation isn't just physical — it's philosophical.
After publicly declining to return to Washington for her father Donald Trump's second term, she opened up on the "Skinny Confidential" podcast about why she left politics behind.
"I went through years of craziness," she admitted, according to OK! Magazine. "Unfortunately ... there is a darkness to that world that I don't really want to welcome into mine. You become a little bit calloused." She went further saying, "It's very dark, negative. And some people love like the gladiator aspect of it, the fight. That was never me. I hate politics."
The most painful aspect? Her kids.
"I know the cost. And it's a price that I'm not willing to make my kids bear," she continued. "Every time I had to miss something, I'm like, 'I will never let this happen again the minute I leave the White House.'"
Just a Daughter Now — Not a Deputy
Despite the break from politics, Ivanka says she still returns to D.C. from time to time — not for meetings, but for movie nights with her dad.
"I'm most looking forward to just being able to show up for him as a daughter," she said, according to OK! Magazine. "To take his mind off things and watch a movie with him or watch a sports game, to know that he can be with me and be himself and just relax."
It's a sharp contrast from the high-stakes political world she once inhabited. These days, her world is kids, waves, workouts, and wellness — not war rooms.
