Ivanka Trump was spotted peering out the window at the huge crowds gathering outside Buckingham Palace today ahead of the President’s arrival.
Earlier today she said she is ‘looking forward’ to joining her father Donald and his wife Melania later today as they touched down in London for an official state visit.
The President’s eldest daughter, 37, arrived in the UK yesterday and managed to squeeze in a trip to the Victoria and Albert Museum in Kensington.
Ivanka opted for an all white ensemble by Italian-born London-based designer Alessandra Rich, with a floating top cinched in at the waist by a chunky belt and a pleated skirt. She wore her long blonde locks straight and down.
This morning she posted a message on her Twitter and Instagram pages expressing her excitement for the visit.

She wrote: ‘Today, Her Majesty The Queen will welcome @POTUS and @FLOTUS for a State Visit to the United Kingdom. I am looking forward to joining the US delegation for this commemorative visit,’ followed by a British and American flag emoji.
Yesterday the mother-of-three shared a snap outside the V&A museum, posing beside a friend wearing a yellow floral dress from New York sister designers duo Ai Ly and Wayne Lee – aka Les Reverie.
She paired the pure silk-crepe frock that falls to a flattering midi length with blue high heels as she stepped out to see the Mary Quant exhibit of over 200 pieces of clothing and accessories from the British designer.
Earlier today President Trump’s jumbo jet landed at Stansted airport – and he wasted no time in making yet another dig at London Mayor Sadiq Khan.
He tweeted: ‘Sadiq Khan, who by all accounts has done a terrible job as Mayor of London, has been foolishly “nasty” to the visiting President of the United States, by far the most important ally of the United Kingdom. He is a stone cold loser who should focus on crime in London, not me.’

For the first day of the three-day visit, First Lady Melania, 49, plumped for a classic knee-length pencil skirt and matching blazer as she stepped off Air Force One.
In an apparent nod to the upcoming D-Day anniversary, Mrs Trump paired the suit with a £650 ($820) Burberry blouse printed with military medals.
President Trump reached for his wife’s hand as they crossed the runway and made their way to the waiting Marine One helicopter.

While the President and First lady are expected to be met by protests in central London, there was no sign of disruption on their arrival in Stansted Airport, which is roughly an hour’s drive from the capital.
The First Lady found time for an outfit change on the overnight flight, after leaving the Andrews Air Force Base, in Maryland, in a £3,480 ($4,400) Gucci shirt dress.
The designer frock was printed with a graphic illustration of the London skyline – complete with depictions of Tower Bridge and the Houses of Parliament.
The President and First Lady are in the UK for a whirlwind tour which will see them dine with the royal family and commemorate the 75th anniversary of D-Day.
