Ivanka Trump will become an official White House employee, the US president’s daughter said in a statement Wednesday, after an original plan to have her serve as an unofficial advisor to him prompted ethics concerns.

“I have heard the concerns some have with my advising the president in my personal capacity while voluntarily complying with all ethics rules and I will instead serve as an unpaid employee in the White House office, subject to all of the same rules as other federal employees,” she said.

“Throughout this process I have been working closely and in good faith with the White House Counsel and my personal counsel to address the unprecedented nature of my role,” the 35-year-old added.

Ms Trump’s title will be assistant to the president, the New York Times reported. Ivanka’s husband, Jared Kushner is already serving the president as a senior advisor.

Last week, local media reported that Ivanka Trump would move in to an office in the West Wing of the White House and serve as an informal advisor to her father.
