Joshua Kushner – the younger brother of Donald Trump’s former adviser Jared Kushner, and Ivanka Trump’s brother-in-law – married his Victoria’s Secret model girlfriend in 2018

Founding his own venture capital firm at 24, he’s since made billions from his investments in Kim Kardashian’s Skims, Instagram, Spotify, ClassPass and more

Joshua Kushner, 38, is the son of property developer and disbarred lawyer Charles Kushner and Seryl Kushner.

As previously reported, Charles created Kushner Companies in 1985 and the family real estate development business employs his eldest child Jared, as well as wife Seryl and daughter Nicole. In 2007, the company made a record-breaking US$1.8 billion investment in the Manhattan office building 666 Fifth Avenue. However, in 2006, Charles was sentenced to two years in prison for making illegal donations in 2003 to then-New Jersey Governor James McGreevey’s campaign, as well as for tax evasion, and witness tampering.
