The late ex-wife of the tycoon and former President of the United States did not forgive him for having an affair with the former beauty queen
When the late Ivana Trump (73) found out that her husband had an affair with another woman, the Czechoslovakian who had fled the Iron Curtain from her country thanks to her talent as a skier, she asked Donald Trump (76) for the divorce immediately.
That woman who had become involved with the tycoon was Marla Maples (58). And it mattered little to him that her lover had been married to Ivana for 15 years and had three children with her: Donald Jr., Ivanka and Erick. Marla. The former Miss Hawaiian Tropic and Miss Georgia USA finalist and Trump were having an intense affair.
The scandal that Maples had to face when she was not yet 30 years old had her happy counterpart a year later, in 1993, when she walked down the aisle with Donald Trump, her ex-lover who became her husband. . That same year they had a daughter, Tiffany. Until six years later, in 1999, the woman had an extramarital affair while Donald Trump also had his with several women, including Melania, his current wife.
Marla Maples became involved with the filmmaker Michael Mailer, son of the writer Norman Mailer, with whom she was dating until 2001. Parallel to raising her daughter Tiffany and living with the money she received from her divorce with Trump, she tried to develop a career in television without having greater relevance.
In 2008, Marla scandalized again when it was learned that she was associated with the model and doctor Andy Baldwin, 15 years her junior. The relationship did not bear fruit, but Maples was typecast as a television figure who only sought fame.
In 2016, she participated as one of the contestants on Dancing with the Stars, in parallel to her inclusion in the ABC morning show The View. However, her thematic orientation changed markedly when she presented at the Peace Summer Summit in 2018. Since then she has dedicated herself to being a speaker on topics such as spirituality, health, environment and science.
A vegan convert, Maples avoids dairy and gluten. One of her last controversial interventions was the one related to Covid-19, where she promoted treatments that did not demonstrate her effectiveness.
Passing through France a couple of days ago, Marla left a message on her Instagram account that faithfully reflects the process of reflection she is going through these days: "What do you want to manifest on this beautiful full moon? I ask for healing in souls and hearts of all humanity. I ask for more compassion for those who may see life differently from us. I asked for endless love, endless inspiration, and moments of uncontrollable laughter. May you find moments that fill your heart," Marla wrote, before knowing about the death of Ivana Trump.
