It's been three days since Republican representative Donald Trump was sworn in as the 47th president of the United States, and by the looks of things, his daughter Ivanka is still relishing her stint in the spotlight.
The 43-year-old businesswoman has been sharing behind the scenes snaps from the inauguration ever since her dad's big moment, including one posted to Instagram yesterday (22 January) which saw controversial podcaster Joe Rogan joining in with the fun.
However, eagle-eyed fans have noticed something strange in the image, with many taking to the comments to ask one vital question.

After taking an oath on the Bible on Monday afternoon (20 January), 78-year-old right-wing leader Trump returned to the White House for the second time, following his initial stint from 2017.
In attendance from the prestigious ceremony were fellow politicians, world leaders and tech bosses, as well as several big-name stars from the worlds of entertainment, music, sport and social media - including controversial podcast host Joe Rogan.
On his titular podcast, Rogan seems to enjoy stirring up heated debate on subjects like race, gender, sexuality, and regularly discusses his dislike of the 'woke'.
Naturally, therefore, viewers of Monday's proceedings were hardly surprised to see him posing for pictures with Trump and his family, one of which Ivanka shared on Instagram yesterday with the caption: "2 Legends!"
As we say, however, one aspect of the photo has caught viewers' attention, with many having been convinced that the man alongside the Trump duo was Dana White - not Rogan.
For those unfamiliar with the latter, White is the CEO and president of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) - a worldwide mixed martial arts event - and has a net worth is around $500 million.
White was also in attendance earlier this week, with Ivanka revealing in the caption that he narrowly missed out on being included in the snap, writing: "Missing from this shot @DanaWhite & @lexfridman! Wish you two were in this one!"
Like Rogan, White is also in his 50s, from the east coast of America (Rogan from New Jersey and White from Connecticut) and is totally bald.
It's not too far-fetched, therefore, to get the two mixed up - as a handful of viewers of Ivanka's new photo have seemingly done.
"Joe Rogan and Dana White separated at birth," one commenter noted.
Another went on: "Is this Joe Rogan or Dana White?"
"I see Dana White, he's in the picture," a third jibed.
Last week (17 Jan), Ivanka revealed she won't be serving alongside her father in the White House, telling press she hopes the initiative will protect her three children from the 'darkness of the world', having learnt the 'price' of politics from Trump's first stint in the Oval Office.
Previously, she worked as her dad's Director of the Office of Economic Initiatives and Entrepreneurship.
Speaking on the Him & Her Show, Ivanka explained that, whilst she supports her dad, she now 'hates politics', adding: "The main reason I am not going back to serve now is I know the cost, and it’s a price that I’m not willing to make my kids bear."
Discussing Trump's term, she continued: "I think I’m most looking forward to just being able to show up for him as a daughter and be there for him to take his mind off things, to watch a movie with him, or watch a sports game.
"To know that he can be with me and be himself and just relax and for me to be able to provide that for him in a very loving way as his daughter."
