President Trump’s daughter Ivanka has been accused of breaching her own coronavirus advice and the US government’s travel guidelines by travelling from Washington to New Jersey for Passover.

Ms Trump, a senior White House adviser, reportedly travelled more than 200 miles with her family to the Trump National Golf Club Bedminster for the first day of Passover on April 8.

She was joined by her husband Jared Kushner, who is also a senior adviser to President Trump, and their three children, on the trip from their home in Washington DC, according to The New York Times.

The trip is in marked contrast to federal guidelines on travel during the COVID-19 crisis, as well as her own advice to her fellow Americans.

On March 30 she posted a video telling people to “please, please” stay at home, saying that “social distancing saves lives”.

In a clip posted on her Twitter and Instagram accounts, Ms Trump said: “Those lucky enough to be in a position to stay at home, please, please do so. Each and every one of us plays a role in slowing the spread.”

On March 16, the White house published The President's Coronavirus Guidelines, advising Americans to “avoid discretionary travel” such as “shopping trips and social visits”.

A week before Ms Trump’s reported trip the city of Washington issued a stay-at-home order for all residents except those performing essential activities.
