  • Ivanka Trump is close to Tiffany but not to Marla Maples

Donald Trump’s daughter Tiffany opened up about her amazing relationship with her mom Marla Maples.

Tiffany’s parents Trump and Maples’ relationship didn’t last long. The latter had to raise Tiffany as a single parent in Los Angeles. The model said that her daughter wanted to get to know her father better. Tiffany wished she could spend more time with Trump like her other siblings, Ivanka, Donald Jr. and Eric, who got to visit the POTUS in his office and watch him work when they were kids.

While Tiffany was not that close to her dad, she was very attached to her mom. In fact, one time she visited Maples’ rehearsal on “Dancing With the Stars” where the mother of one paid a tribute to her daughter by choosing Tiffany’s birth year on the ABC show’s “Most Memorable Year” night.

“My mom and I have the most amazing relationship,” Tiffany said to the cameras of the show. “We have always had the strongest bond. She is just truly the most amazing mother.”

In the same episode, Maples reminisced the time she met Tiffany’s father. According to her, she was only 20 years old when she met the POTUS and at the time, Trump was not a household name yet. The world didn’t know him. She only met the businessman-turned-politician through a friend and found him “interesting.” Maples admitted that she wasn’t prepared to be a mom but when she gave birth to Tiffany she said that it was “amazing.”

Although Tiffany doesn’t talk much about her relationship with her father, according to Lara Trump, Eric’s wife, she had a “fun and loving relationship” with her dad. In fact, Trump is very proud of his second daughter.

Meanwhile, although Tiffany didn’t have the chance to spend more time with Trump the way his first three children did, she was close to her half-sister Ivanka. The first daughter said that she was not close to her stepmother but she has a “relationship” with her sister Tiffany.

“She’s my little sister! I've been close to Tiffany her whole life, and I really love her,” Ivanka said of Tiffany despite her tension-filled relationship with Maples.
