Ivana Trump was the first wife of former president Donald Trump; they married in 1977. Now, 45 years later, she has died of “blunt impact” injuries to her torso. Ivana Trump passed away at her home in New York City. The cause of death was deemed accidental.

Police received a call at approximately 12:40 PM on July 15. When they found Ms. Trump, she was lying unconscious at the bottom of her stairs. She was pronounced dead at the scene by two law-enforcement officials who obtained information on the incident.

Falls are one of the leading injuries and death factors for older adults—one in four adults over the age of 65 falls each year. Death from falling happens to 64 people out of 100,000 in the U.S.

The children of Ivana Trump tweeted: “Heartbroken by the passing of my mother. Mom was brilliant, charming, passionate, and wickedly funny. She lived life to the fullest … I will miss her forever.” Ms. Trump’s siblings posted family pictures online.
