When Ivana Trump passed away suddenly in July 2022, her final resting place raised more than a few eyebrows. The former model, businesswoman, and first wife of Donald Trump was buried at Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey—a move that, at first glance, seemed deeply personal. But as the dust settled, it became clear that Ivana’s quiet grave, placed just beyond the first tee, may have served more than a sentimental purpose. It may have been the missing piece in a much longer, more strategic plan—one involving farmland loopholes, cemetery designations, and potentially massive tax savings.
Ivana, who died at age 73 from blunt impact injuries caused by an accidental fall down the stairs in her Manhattan townhouse, had always remained close to the Trump family.
