(90,165 posts)It is a name that kinda begs to be played with, 'eh?
But to your point - I'm leaning the same way. As soon as I heard she's 46, I grew nervous for her. She's about at the end of her shelf-life, and her sell-by date is undoubtedly coming soon. I bet he'll only keep her around if, Heaven forbid, he wins.
He sure threw Ivana out awhile ago, after she bore him three children and then had the nerve to start aging. So he started fooling around with Marla Maples (Ivana famously referred to her as Moolah, but maybe it was because Ivana spoke with an accent - she's from the former Czechoslovakia, too, and was also a model when she was younger). I remember when they divorced and she promptly went into seclusion while she had some "work" done. Then she reappeared in public on the cover of Vogue magazine, looking like a major knockout. Revenge is best served with the right nips 'n' tucks in this case, I suppose!
Then when Marla couldn't tie him down, she finally roped him in the old-fashioned way, by getting pregnant, and he married her - for awhile. I'm not sure why he threw her away, but she's remained extremely low-profile ever since. Hers is the daughter named Tiffany, whom you've seen onstage with the Family Trump on various occasions. But she seems to be regarded as an afterthought in the mind of Ivana's kids. At least to Eric Trump, who was on the CBS morning show a few days ago, talking up his wonderful father and referring to how dad was always very good to "the three of us" - meaning himself, brother Donald Junior, and sister Ivanka.
I've seen some great observations all boiling down to "imagine how it would go over if Hillary was sashaying around, showing off her five children from three different men?"
on edit - went and looked up Ivana Trump to find out where in Europe she originated. She's a Czech.
SHIT!!!! Did I ever share about the encounter I had with this gay guy while we were both on jury duty last year? We happened to be sitting next to each other and we started talking. Neither of us ever got called up, so we wound up gabbing and gossiping the entire day! He was freakin' hilarious! Worked as a celebrity female impersonator and one of his impersonations was Ivana Trump! He told me she was in the audience one night and caught his performance. He noticed and saluted her from the stage, and said "There's Ivana Trump! The only Czech The Donald ever bounced!" It got a huge laugh and later when she came backstage to meet him, he apologized but she laughed and said she thought it was very funny.
I never hesitate to accept jury duty. For some strange reason, I ALWAYS wind up having a good time!
But now, knowing more about Donald Trump, I seriously do wonder if Ivana really IS "the only 'check' The Donald ever bounced"...
