When it comes to Donald Trump’s former wives,Ivana Trumpis the one who gets the most attention.
Much less is known about the woman he married after he and Ivana split up, Marla Maples.
Maples and Trump reportedly became involved while he was still married to Ivana.
Maples escaped the press by going to Guatemala with the Peace Corps for a time.
“It was awful,” she later toldPeople.
“They wouldn’t leave my family alone.
I wanted to fix everything.
I like to fix things for people and suddenly here’s all these stories out.
I couldn’t keep up.”
He later admitted that he wasn’t exactly thrilled when Maples told him she was pregnant.
“Honestly, I’m glad it happened,” he told Howard Stern in 2004 (viaNewsweek).
“I have a great little daughter, Tiffany.
But, you know at the time it was like, ‘Excuse me, what happened?’
And then I said, ‘Well, what are we going to do about this?’
She [Maples] said, “Are you serious?
It’s the most beautiful day of our lives.'
I said, ‘Oh, great.'”
Trump’s early ambivalence did not bode well for their future relationship.
The two divorced in 1999, and Maples moved from New York to California with Tiffany.
“So, she wanted me to have a chance to have a normal childhood.
As normal as possible.
I think that she did well in that.”
What is Marla Maples up to today?
When it comes to her famous ex-husband, Maples doesn’t have much to say.
“They really double-teamed her,” said the source.
“They got her not to write the book.”
