Donald Trump’s glamorous daughter-in-law Lara has secured her place as the President’s right hand woman after months of relentless campaigning.
As Trump’s nearest and dearest took to the stage with him in the early hours of Wednesday to declare victory over Kamala Harris, it was Lara who drew focus.
The 78-year-old’s daughter Ivanka has taken a step back from politics after being heavily involved in both her father’s two previous campaigns – allowing ‘ambitious’ Lara to step up.
However, was seen back on stage Wednesday morning, although to the side, amid rumors she’s looking to re-enter politics in the wake of her Trump’s convincing victory.
On Wednesday, as Trump told the American people he had ‘made history’, Lara stood proudly to his right, wearing a long sleeved sheer black top and black slacks.

Republican voters flooded social media with praise for the new MAGA star, noting she ‘deserves so much credit for this victory’ after ‘saving the Republican party.’
‘Lara Trump deserves every bit of praise for her relentless dedication and hard work. She’s proven herself to be a powerhouse, showing up day after day with integrity and focus,’ one supporter wrote.
Lara, 41, is married to Trump’s son Eric, and has been tirelessly campaigning on behalf of her father-in-law since he became the Republican nominee.
The former television producer is the co-chair of the Republican National Committee and has risen within the family during the campaigning, often appearing at her father-in-law’s rallies.
She was front and center of Trump’s relief efforts in North Carolina following the devastation of Hurricane Helene, and has been sounding the alarm about Harris as a woman who ‘failed upwards’ for months.
On Tuesday night, Eric congratulated his wife for her efforts during the campaign.
‘You put your heart and soul into the job and proved them all wrong,’ he wrote alongside a picture of he and his wife as votes were being counted.

During his 2016 victory speech Ivanka was front and center with her father, offering an early glimpse into the crucial role she would play in his first presidential term.
She and her husband Jared Kushner became two of Trump’s most trusted advisers and principal gatekeepers during his first administration.
But the couple were noticeably absent from this campaign, vowing to stay away from politics and focus on their family in Miami.
But even from the sidelines of the stage, Ivanka looked glamorous in a bright blue matching pant suit and bold red lip.

‘We made history for a reason tonight, and the reason is that we overcame obstacles that nobody thought possible,’ Donald Trump said during the speech.
‘And it is now clear that we’ve achieved the most incredible political thing.’
Trump suggested during the speech at Mar-a-Lago that God spared his life during the July assassination attempt at his Butler rally.
‘Many people have told me that God spared my life for a reason: And that reason was to save our country and to restore America to greatness. And now we are going to fulfil that mission together,’ he said.
Trump also thanked wife Melania for standing by his side, gushing about her number one bestselling self-titled memoir.
Melania seemed happy on stage, wearing a tailored grey suit as she stood by her husband’s side.
Trump’s 18-year-old son Barron towered over the remainder of Trump supporters on stage, hours after casting a vote for the first time.
His mother shared a photograph of Barron as he hit the polling booths in Florida, telling voters on X she was ‘proud’ that he had the opportunity to vote for his dad.

Newly minted Vice President-elect J.D. Vance spoke for many when he said the result marked a remarkable turnaround in political fortunes.
‘I thank you for the trust that you placed in me,’ he said, ‘and I think that we just witnessed the greatest political comeback in the history of the United States of America.
‘We are going to make the greatest economic comeback, too.’
The path to victory became clear for Trump about 11.25pm, when North Carolina was officially called for Trump.
From there, a second swing state in Georgia turned red, and Pennsylvania later followed, blocking Harris from seizing power.
