Ivanka Trump broke into tears during an interview with the Diary of a CEO podcast, where she discussed her mother and maternal grandmother. She expressed regret that her three children, Arabella, Joseph and Theo, won't have known their grandmother, Ivana Trump, and was grateful her own grandmother, Marie Zelníčková, lives with them in Florida. During the 90-minute interview, she also mentioned her husband Jared Kushner's battle with thyroid cancer and watching her father get shot in "real time" with her children. She described her late mother as "extraordinary," and later delivered her mother's funeral speech.
