Honoring first wife Ivana Trump on Wednesday, July 20, 2022, Donald Trump is flanked by wife Melania and daughter Ivanka as they leave an Upper East Side funeral home on route to a nearby church for memorial mass.
Ivana Trump’s family partook in a funeral on Wednesday at a Roman Catholic Church in New York City’s Upper East Side, in a celebration that was decorated with thousands of her favorite roses and reflected her “glamorous” life, a friend told Insider.
“Ivana would want a big, glamorous celebration of her life,” publicist R. Couri Hay said. “Today she’s right where she belongs. In the spotlight and in heaven.”
Here are photos of the attendees at the funeral.

All members of Donald and Ivana Trump’s family attended the wedding, including their three children, Eric, Donald Jr., and Ivanka. All of her children delivered remarks, but Donald Trump did not give a speech.
Donald Trump Jr. remembered his mother’s “old world punishment” after he threw a tantrum in a restaurant when he was 4 years old.
“I left with my butt red. She told me if I cry, she’d bring me back for more. That probably wouldn’t fly today, but maybe it should because I was a perfect little boy for the rest of that dinner,” Hay recalled Donald Trump Jr. saying during his eulogy.

Designer Dennis Basso also attended the service. He and Ivana Trump were longtime friends and collaborators. Ivana was a frequent customer of Basso’s furs – though often with a friends and family discount, according to The New York Times.
“We couldn’t have made the shoulders bigger or fuller,” Mr. Basso told The Times of the ensembles his design team created with her. “She always wanted to show her waist. She would call and say: ‘I love that. Can I have it in purple?’ ‘I love that. Can I have that in green?’ One year, around Christmastime, she called and said: ‘I’m in Aspen. I want a red sheared mink ski suit.’ Not being a great skier, I said, ‘But when you fall, it’s going to get wet.'”
“She said, ‘Dahling. I don’t fall,'” Basso quipped.

Though tearful, the former first daughter brought smiles to the service recalling when her mother scolded her for wearing a mini skirt that “wasn’t mini enough.”
“Flaunt it while you have it,” she remembered Ivana telling her.
