Proud Family Moment at the White House
Ivanka Trump proudly shared a touching family moment. Her eight-year-old son, Theo, performed his first original piano composition for his grandfather, President Donald Trump, at the White House. Dressed smartly in an off-white suit, Theo played confidently as his grandfather watched nearby.
Social Media Lights Up
Ivanka posted the video on X on April 29, 2025, captioning it, “Theo debuting his first original composition for Grandpa last night at The White House,” adding a heart-faced emoji.
Reactions flooded in across platforms. On Instagram, one user said, “Poor kid looked very awkward and under pressure.” Another gushed, “Wow, he’s so big now. What a handsome guy!”
Mixed Reactions Online
On Facebook, opinions varied. One commenter said, “I feel so bad for that poor child,” while another noted, “Not even a little applause for the kid.” Over on X, someone observed, “Yeah, Trump seems very uninterested,” and another joked, “No pressure, lol.”
Yet, many praised the moment. One fan wrote, “Beautiful. He plays very well for his age.” Another added, “Such a beautiful, heartfelt moment—family truly makes everything special.”

A Budding Talent
Theo, the youngest of Ivanka and Jared Kushner’s three children, is clearly multi-talented. Just last month, Ivanka proudly celebrated his football achievements, sharing that Theo played quarterback in his first flag football tournament, where his team advanced to the championship at the Dallas Cowboys’ practice stadium.
Music Meets History
Theo’s piano performance carried historical weight. He played on the White House’s 300,000th Steinway piano, a gift to President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1938. The grand instrument, made from Honduran mahogany and adorned with gold leaf, stands as a symbol of American musical tradition.
Surfing Headlines
While Theo charmed the public, Ivanka herself grabbed headlines two weeks earlier. Spotted surfing in Costa Rica, she impressed social media with her toned figure and surfing skills. Admirers praised her modest swimsuit and athleticism.
Ivanka’s Love for Surfing
In a July 2024 podcast, Ivanka shared how surfing offers her peace, focus, and a sense of harmony with nature. She admitted she’s still learning but enjoys the physical challenge. She compared surfing’s flowing nature to the more forceful energy of windsurfing, appreciating the connection between surfer and ocean.
Jiu-Jitsu Training
Ivanka also credits her athletic build to training in jiu-jitsu, as seen in posts with the Valente brothers. Together, surfing and martial arts reflect her passion for staying active and connected to her environment.
