Members DaytimeFan Posted July 14, 2022 Members Share Posted July 14, 2022 I loved Ivana Trump. For a moment in the 90s she was ubiquitous. Knowing her life story growing up in Communist Czechoslovakia, fleeing to Canada for freedom, becoming a model and learning English in Montreal, meeting and marrying and divorcing Donald Trump in New York...she was a real life soap opera diva come to life. During Trump's presidency she became unusually quiet, staying away from the spotlight, and seemed to age a lot in recent years and seemed unusually frail for her age. All that said, she was one of those pop culture figures that was a one off and signals that, indeed, time is marching on for all of us. She lived a fabulous life, was true to herself, and was a survivor. May she rest in peace.

Members Faulkner Posted July 14, 2022 Author Members Share Posted July 14, 2022 (edited) Lovely tribute, and I quote that line from the First Wives Club all the time. If you were aware of pop culture in the ‘80s and ‘90s, she was indeed ubiquitous. Edited July 14, 2022 by Faulkner 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DaytimeFan Posted July 14, 2022 Members Share Posted July 14, 2022 I remember when Ivana was on UK Celebrity Big Brother and she got along famously with Stephanie Beacham. Stephanie remarked to Vinnie Jones: "She is the woman I play." This is the Ivana I'll remember in all her mid 90s glory jet setting to London, St. Tropez, Gstaad... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Faulkner Posted July 14, 2022 Author Members Share Posted July 14, 2022 She was so funny, charismatic, and effervescent. (Paula Poundstone, what a throwback.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

victoria foxton Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 (edited) Ivana knew that man was trash from the jump and only bounced when he found a younger squeeze and knocked her up. She was just as complicit in his decades of scamming others as his other two baby mamas… I’m too familiar with death to rewrite history for someone so undeserving, movie cameos don’t make someone a good person. Even in her most recent interviews she was celebrating Donald and kissing his ass. I’m shocked at the amount of posters in here trying to make her out to be some survivor/hero who should be celebrated. Let us not forget that she self-proclaims to have raised the 3 demons. Don Jr. looks like he’s in a constant state of needing his splines reticulated. Edited July 15, 2022 by victoria foxton 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted July 15, 2022 Members Share Posted July 15, 2022 A cardiac arrest (as suspected) preceded her fall. Such a shame. At 73, she seemed to have more life to live and out of all the Trumps, she clearly was the better at business. And also as suspected, the conspiracy theorists are at it with a quickness. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted July 15, 2022 Members Share Posted July 15, 2022 I have no particular deep affection for Ivana Trump, but I'm just glad she scalped Donald for what little he was worth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted July 15, 2022 Members Share Posted July 15, 2022 Same. Also add for the way she needled “Melanie” to great effect. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
