During an interview that aired on 'Fox & Friends' Wednesday morning, the president-elect mentioned that Ivanka Trump and Michelle Obama recently talked to each other. 
Donald Trump noted, “The conversation was going to be a quick conversation – it lasted an hour.  And they got along great.” 
The Daily Mail reports that while the content of their talk was not revealed, the news that they spoke at length is furthering speculation that Ivanka may be taking on a "role of de facto first lady" in the White House. 
Another indication that she anticipates involvement in her father’s presidency is the distance she’s been creating between herself her family’s business dealings. 
In recent weeks, she has taken an official leave of absence from the Trump Organization and made arrangement to receive flat payments rather than equity, notes CNN.
Ivanka also named a new president to run her eponymous fashion company, relinquishing her authority over its operation. 
While her business-related activities have been slowing down, her presence in Washington, D.C. is growing.
The Daily Mail notes that Ivanka has been reaching out to Congressional members regarding ways to approach child care reform in the U.S., an issue she has often spoken quite passionately about.
