I’m first lady, declares Ivana Trump, before Melania returns fire at ‘attention-seeking ex’
‘There is clearly no substance to this statement from an ex, this is unfortunately only attention-seeking and self-serving noise’: Melania Trump’s spokeswoman
Things are getting a little “Real Housewives” around the White House.
In one of the stranger sideshows to his presidency, President Donald Trump’s first and third wives, Ivana and Melania, respectively, on Monday had a very public war of words – and his second wife, Marla Maples, is getting some shade out of the spat, to boot.
To promote her new book, “Raising Trump,” about parenting Trump’s three eldest children, Ivana Trump gave an interview on Monday to “Good Morning America” in which she made some comments sure to privately raise the hackles of the woman currently occupying the role of Wife of Donald.
She offered faux sympathy for Melania Trump, saying “I think for her to be in Washington must be terrible.” She had less subtle insults for her ex’s second wife, Marla Maples. “A showgirl” was her epithet of choice.
