Ivana Marie Zelníčková was born in 1949 in the Czechoslovak town of Gottwaldov, the former Czechoslovakia just renamed by the Communists, who conquered the country in 1948.

In 1975 she moved to Canada, where she began her modeling career. That career of hers brought her to New York, where she met Donald Trump in 1976 and the following year they got married.

Divorce turned Ivana into a kind of heroine for despised wives; she also had a cameo (short appearance) in the 1996 film “The First Wives Club”, known in Latin America as “El club de las divorciadas”, in which she tells a group of disgruntled divorced women: “Don’t be mad, take it all. .
