Tiffany Trump has cryptically responded to the commotion over her father's alleged comments about her weight.

25-year-old Tiffany posted a quote to her Instagram stories by ancient philosopher Rumi. The quote comes amid claims that Donald Trump was embarrassed by his daughter's weight gain, according to The Sun.

Tiffany Trump is the only child of U.S President Donald Trump and his second wife Marla Maples.

Donald Trump has said he loves his daughter Tiffany after reports suggested he was embarrassed of her because of her weight.

"Study me as much as you like, you will never know me," she posted.

"For I differ a hundred ways from what you see me to be.

"Put yourself behind my eyes, and see me as I see myself. Because I have chosen to dwell in a place you can't see."

It comes after news that Donald Trump's personal aide Madeleine Westerhout was forced to resign from her job earlier this week, after bragging to reporters she had a better relationship with Trump than his daughters Ivanka and Tiffany, and that he didn't like to be in photos with Tiffany because he considered her overweight.

The US President appeared to go into damage control, telling reporters he loved his second-born daughter.

"I love Tiffany. She's a wonderful person and she studies hard," Trump told reporters, according to The Sun.

Westerhout reportedly also said that Trump "couldn't pick Tiffany out of a crowd".

The president of the US said the comments are "absolutely false".

Westerhout was very close to the US president and thought to know a lot of his secrets.

He has praised her "good job" but said the 28-year-old's comments were "a little bit hurtful".

As part of her job, Westerhout controlled who had access to the president.

Westerhout has always defended Trump publicly. In February, when three months' worth of his calendar leaked to the press, she was quick to defend him on Twitter: "What these don't show are the hundreds of calls and meetings @realDonaldTrump takes everyday.

"This POTUS is working harder for the American people than anyone in recent history."

Tiffany was raised by her mum Marla Maples in California.
