Ivanka Trump Expecting First Child

By Sarah Crow Posted Jan 21st 2011 01:35PM

Ivanka Trump is expecting a child with her husband, New York Observer owner Jared Kushner.

The model-turned-entrepreneur announced the good news on her Twitter this morning.

"I have been wanting to share some amazing news with you all for some time... I'm pregnant! Jared and I couldn't be more excited," she wrote.

Trump, 29, married the 30-year-old media mogul in 2009 after dating for two years.

Kushner says of impending parenthood, "We're very excited."

Prior to the ceremony, Trump converted to Judaism for Kushner, the son of Orthodox parents.

This will be the first child for both Trump and Kushner. The baby will be the third grandchild for Ivanka's father, Donald, whose son, Donald Jr. has two children with wife Vanessa.

The 'Apprentice' host tells Gossip Cop, "I am very happy for Ivanka and Jared. They are wonderful young people!"

I'm not sure why the fact she converted to Judaism is relevant to this story? Whenever I've read news about other celebrities announcing their pregnancies, I don't recall them saying they converted to Catholicism or Hinduism or whatever their religion may be...

First of all, anyone who has to convert their religion to marry someone, should NOT be getting married! Enough said!

By bestbunny10

She converted because she wanted to. She studied with some orthodox Rabbis in NYC and she said she absolutely loved it...Knowing what we know of Ivanka..could you imagine her doing something she didn't want to do???

I just flipped through the array of children of stars. I'm sorry, but Suri is NOT adorable, or even cute. In fact, every photo I've seen of her; majority she's being carried, she's a frowner. She does NOT sparkle & unfortunately, has her mother's cauliflower ears.
Stop photographing her, at least until maybe, just maybe, she might blossom (I doubt it).
