Ivanka Trump’s bodyguard shoved a man after he repeatedly tried to approach her and her husband, Jared Kushner, in Miami on Saturday night. A video of the incident, now viral on TikTok, shows the tense moment as the bodyguard intervenes when the man, who was carrying a Manila folder, attempts to sidle up to the couple outside the Carbone Beach venue.
The clip, which has garnered significant attention online, begins with the Kushners walking toward a waiting car when the unidentified man approaches them. Dressed in tan shorts and a black T-shirt, he makes a move towards the pair, prompting Ivanka’s bodyguard, dressed in black trousers and a purple shirt, to step in and block him. The bodyguard initially pushes the man away gently, but when the man swats the guard’s hand aside and tries to advance once more, the security personnel responds by forcefully shoving him in the chest. The impact sends the man flying backward off camera.
Ivanka and Jared briefly turn around to assess the situation before quickly being ushered into their SUV.
The incident, which occurred at a high-profile event attended by just 400 guests, was met with mixed reactions. One Twitter user wrote, “Holy smokes. Ivanka Trump’s security guard does not mess around,” while another quipped, “Do NOT mess with the Trump family!” Others on social media debated the appropriateness of the response, with one suggesting, “Bet she fires him anyway. That was excessive and not a good look.” Another commenter defended the guard, saying, “The white guy was being a jerk... The guard HAD to respond in a microsecond because he literally didn’t have time to check if a handgun was coming out or not.”
The glitzy event, which saw tickets priced at $3,000, included a performance by Jelly Roll, NYPost reported.
