Sources quoted in a recent Vanity Fair piece claimed that Ivanka Trump has a frosty relationship with Melania Trump but Ivanka has nothing but praise for her stepmom in her new book Women Who Work .

Melania, you are an unbelievable mother with a heart of gold. You give generously of your time and attention and I appreciate your support and friendship, the first daughter writes in the acknowledgements.

Happy Birthday to our First Lady (and my incredible step-mom!) Melania Trump . A wonderful example of kindness and grace for us all! @FLOTUS , she wrote.

Happy Birthday to our First Lady (and my incredible step-mom!) Melania Trump A wonderful example of kindness and grace for us all! @FLOTUS pic.twitter.com/k8BpS5cqma

Ivanka Trump (@IvankaTrump) April 27, 2017

As for the first ladys take on the relationship, in previous interviews, shes described having an easy bond with her stepchildren: Donald Jr ., 39; Ivanka , 35; Eric , 33, and Tiffany, 23.

They are grown-up, the 47-year-old told Harpers Bazaar in 2016. I dont see myself as their mother. I am their friend, and Im here when they need me.
