‘Something was wrong’ in the year before Ivana’s death
James Edstrom, a friend of Ivana Trumpnoted in the year before her death that “something was wrong”.
The photographer, who last saw Ivana in New York about a year ago, told The Sun: “I told her I wanted to make a fashion book and I wanted to use a photo I had taken years ago.
“When she and Donald got divorced, she threw a party at the Plaza Hotel and arrived in an old green antique restored checkered cab.
“I said to her, ‘Ivana, you know, I was thinking about writing a fashion book about the eighties. I was thinking you used that photo for the cover.’
“She looked at me and said, ‘Wow, that would be really great.’ But something was wrong, you know, she didn’t have that spark.
“There wasn’t the zest for life she always had. It was like it was gone. I was afraid she had Alzheimer’s or something.”
