Who is Ivana Trump actually?
She was born Ivana Zelnickova in 1949 in the Czechoslovak town of Gottwaldov, the former town of Zlin which was just renamed by the communists who took over the country in 1948.
The ski racer and sometimes model then moved to Canada, living in Montreal in the 1970s. Later that decade, she moved to the United States and married Trump, her second husband, in 1977.
She has become an icon in her own right, dripping with 80s style and elegance, with an accent and her beehive hairstyle.
She would later appear in the hit 1996 film The First Wives Club with the now famous line, “Ladies, you have to be strong and independent, and remember, don’t get mad, get it all.” »
Partners in love and business – with his roles as manager of one of his Atlantic City casinos – Ivana and Donald were part of the New York scene to see and see before their equally public and messy divorce, which was finalized in 1992.
During the split, Ivana accused him of rape in an affidavit. She later said that she didn’t mean it literally, but rather that she felt violated.
Nonetheless, she ultimately remained friends with her ex-husband, whom she dubbed “The Donald.” She enthusiastically supported his run for the White House in 2016 and told the New York Post that year that she was both a supporter and an adviser.
