Ivana Trump is sympathetic to the reports that her son Donald Trump Jr allegedly had an affair while married to his wife Vanessa, who filed for divorce last month — but she’s seemingly not that surprised.
During an interview with Page Six who first reported that Donald Jr. allegedly had an affair with Celebrity Apprentice contestant and Danity Kane singer Aubrey O’Day in 2011 — the 69-year-old said that although she found the allegations “Distressing”, because I’ve been there,” she doesn’t think she has a right to weigh in.
“Who am I to judge and who knows what was the situation at that moment?” she added to Page Six. “It’s a long time ago now, so I think Vanessa knew it all along and maybe she just couldn’t get over the hurt to forgive him.”
Continuing, she remarked to the outlet, “But I honestly don’t know that many men who can keep their zippers up.”
While Ivana — President Donald Trump’s first wife — went on to explain that she was “very sad” about the couple’s decision to split after 12 years of marriage, she knows that her 40-year-old son will be fine.
“Donald Jr. is a good-looking guy. He is successful. He is not going to have a problem to find a girl,” she told Page Six
But while the president’s first wife thinks her son will recover from the pair’s divorce just fine, she said she believes Vanessa might have some difficulties moving on.
“Maybe Vanessa might have a little problem because she was five kids,” she explained. “Who is going to date and marry the woman who has five children? Especially since she is young [40] and she might want to have more.”
The exes share children Kai Madison, 10, Donald III, 9, Tristan, 6, Spencer, 5, and Chloe, 3.
