Uh, so you know how Melania Trump’s former best friend Stephanie Winston Wolkoff reportedly taped her slamming Ivanka Trump and is spilling the tea in a new book? Yeah, well, the details are pretty wild.

In an exclusive excerpt published in New York magazine’s Intelligencer (via People), Winston Wolkoff goes into Melania’s rivalry with her stepdaughter and says that she tried to block her from being in the best inauguration photos with a plan literally called “Operation Block Ivanka.”

“It was Donald’s inauguration, not Ivanka’s,” Winston Wolkoff writes. “But no one was brave enough to tell her that. Melania was not thrilled about Ivanka’s steering the schedule and would not allow it. Neither was she happy to hear that Ivanka insisted on walking in the Pennsylvania Avenue parade with her children.”

Apparently, Ivanka texted Winston Wolkoff a photo of President Obama surrounded by family at his swearing in, and wrote, “It is nice to have family with him for this special moment.” This kicked off “Operation Block Ivanka,” which involved rearranging everyone’s positions during the ceremony so Melania didn’t have to stand near her stepdaughter.

“Yes, Operation Block Ivanka was petty,” Winston Wolkoff writes. “Melania was in on this mission. But in our minds, Ivanka shouldn’t have made herself the center of attention in her father’s inauguration.”

Wow. Gonna go ahead and drop the link to preorder this book in case anyone’s...interested ?? .
