Tiffany Trump, probably the least political and most private of all of Donald Trump’s adult children, was publicly shamed earlier this week when fashion editors at the Philipp Plein runway show at New York Fashion Week refused to sit next her.
From Nikki Ogunnaike, senior fashion editor at Elle magazine:
Phillip Plein at 10PM: 1 hour late start, editors fleeing just so they don't have to sit behind Tiffany Trump.

And from Alyssa Vingan Klein, editor-in-chief of the website Fashionista:

Ogunnaike later admitted she moved seats to avoid Tiffany:
We moved and are down the hall. Come thru. https://t.co/3LxKU4Td7D

And according to Klein, some editors refused to even stay for the show:
Tiffany Trump had a front row seat as well, which led several editors to request to be moved and, in a couple of cases, leave altogether.
Former WSJ reporter Christina Brinkley posted pics of Tiffany and the empty seats:

Whoopi Goldberg, however, came to Tiffany’s defense and blasted the editors and reporters over their behavior and offered to sit next Trump’s daughter at an upcoming show:
Tiffany’s response:
Thank you @WhoopiGoldberg I'd love to sit with you too! ?
