They couldn’t be more different. One is an American business woman and former model, while the other is a council worker and Labour Party member.

While one stands to inherit millions from her father, the other works as a digital worker and lives in a modest home on the south coast of the UK.

In fact the only thing the two women would appear to have in common is that they share the same first name.

But while most people could quickly spot the difference between Ivanka Trump and her namesake across the Atlantic, Ivanka Majic, the one man who should have known better managed to get the two mixed up.

Ms Trump’s father, who just happens to be Donald Trump, confused the two women in a tweet, suddenly thrusting Ms Majic into the limelight.

Overnight Mr Trump’s tweet, in which he referred to Ms Majic’s twitter name of @ivanka, instead of his daughter’s name @IvankaTrump, brought the Brighton council worker to the attention of the President elect’s 20.1 million followers.
