First Wife of Donald Trump, Ivana Trump, Has Died Due to a Fall on the Stairs

Like him or hate him, you can’t deny that Donald Trump is a good businessman.

Although he had an advantage with a “small loan” of $1 million from his father, he did build his business empire after that, making him one of the richest men in the US.

Also, his first wife, Ivana Trump, is famous for working with Donald Trump on several big projects. In fact, she was one of the senior executives in The Trump Organization, and was once the CEO and president of the Trump Castle Hotel and Casino in Atlantic City. She was so good, Donald Trump even wanted to engage her as the ambassador to the Czech Republic when he was President, but she turned it down.

She’s also the mother of Donald Jr. Trump, Ivanka Trump and Eric Trump, the three children who also held top public positions during the Trump Administration.

Needless to say, despite not being in the spotlight for years, Ivana Trump is still well-respected, and so, her sudden death has saddened many.
