Jared Kushner BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.

Jared Kushner has stormed back onto the world stage with a vengeance. This past week, headlines blazed as he and Steve Witkoff, President Trump’s special envoy, flew to the Gaza Strip with Israeli defense officials, confirming Israel’s compliance with the first phase of the long-negotiated Trump-backed Gaza ceasefire. According to the Jerusalem-based Jewish Chronicle, their visit was closely tied to the imminent release of living hostages by Hamas, a pivotal moment in the ongoing quest for enduring Middle East peace.

But behind the scenes, the story has been anything but smooth. In an explosive 60 Minutes interview previewed by CBS News, Kushner revealed he and Witkoff “felt a little bit betrayed” by Israel’s recent strike on Hamas leaders in Doha, Qatar, an episode that nearly blew up the U.S.-engineered peace effort. Trump, Kushner said, was blindsided and believed Israeli leadership had gotten “a little bit out of control,” prompting him to lean hard on Prime Minister Netanyahu. The secret Doha attack rattled regional confidence, driving Hamas underground and throwing the talks into chaos before Netanyahu ultimately apologized to the Qataris. Yet, against these odds, a breakthrough: with quiet U.S. shuttle diplomacy, a deal was reached, leading to a multi-phase peace plan involving regional disarmament, troop pullbacks, and Gaza reconstruction.

On the business front, Kushner is making headlines of a very different nature. Just weeks ago, EA Sports—yes, the global gaming giant—was sold in what’s being described as the largest leverage buyout in history: a $55 billion deal masterminded by a consortium of Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, Silver Lake, and Kushner’s Affinity Partners. Game industry insiders, as reported by egamersworld, can scarcely believe it, and market watchers are abuzz with speculation about EA’s new future, now that Kushner’s group is rumored to be eyeing aggressive moves into free-to-play and mobile-first gaming strategies. Amidst all this, Forbes now pegs Kushner’s fortune north of $1 billion, with Affinity successfully leveraging Gulf backing for major investments in everything from tech to insurance to gaming.

Kushner has been spotted on social media and in public, including a photo op at Tel Aviv’s Hostages Square and numerous tagged appearances with Trump and negotiating partners. As business networks dissect the implications of his blockbuster EA takeover and follow every twist in the Gaza ceasefire process, Kushner’s profile—once shadowed by controversy—again seems poised for yet another transformation, drawing equal amounts of suspicion, fascination, and grudging respect. With the eyes of the world on Middle Eastern peace and the fate of an iconic gaming empire, the Jared Kushner show is back in prime time and the next chapter is already being written.
