The life of Ivana Trump
The former Czechoslovakian model emigrated to the United States, married the tycoon in 1977 and became a collaborator in many of his activities until reaching executive positions in the Trump Organization and some hotels.
The couple, widely followed by the tabloids, divorced in 1992 amid massive media scrutiny following Trump’s relationship with actress Marla Maples, whom he would marry a year later and have a daughter, Tiffany.
Ivana, who decided to keep her first husband’s surname, has since developed a versatile career in which she launched lines of clothing, jewelry and beauty products, wrote several books and collaborated with magazines.
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.
Her skill as a skier has led her to represent the country in international competitions. She first married Alfred Winklmayr, an Austrian ski instructor and her friend with the aim of obtaining Austrian citizenship and thus leaving the country.
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.
But the relationship between the two did not end in the best way. The separation in 1992 came in the midst of a scandal that took over the covers of the New York tabloids.
