After reports revealed that Ivana Trump’s funeral will double as a charity event, rumors are swirling about where her fortune may end up. As People reports, Ivan’s celebration of life will take place on July 20 at the St. Vincent Ferrer Roman Catholic Church.
It will be a celebration of life held in New York City that completely encompasses the glamorous lifestyle Ivana was always accustomed to. As Mamas Uncut previously reported, Ivana passed away at the age of 73 from blunt force trauma.
According to preliminary autopsy results, Ivana died of the injuries sustained during a fall that has since been ruled an accident. Now her friends and family are preparing to say their final goodbye.

R. Couri Hay, a society columnist who knew Ivana for more than 40 years, told People that her send-off will be something she approves of. “We are really grateful to the family, especially her children, for arranging this big, glamorous send-off with all of her friends. This would have been what she wanted.”
While her funeral may be taking place in one of the most romanticized places in the world, the service is invite-only. All three of her children, Donald Jr., Ivanka, and Eric, are planning to attend, People reports.
A source also claimed that her ex-husband, Donald J. Trump will also be in attendance. “People are flying in from all over the world [on] relatively short notice,” Hay told People.
Those planning the funeral have also asked those in attendance to refrain from purchasing flowers and rather that they donate that money to Big Dog Ranch Rescue, a Florida-based nonprofit organization aiming to minimize dog homelessness.
As Big Dog Ranch Rescue wrote in a statement following Ivana’s passing, they said she “was philanthropically involved with many charities throughout her entire life, but always remained steadfast and passionate in her love for animals.”
Now, rumors are revealing that Ivana Trump loved her animals so much that it wouldn’t be a surprise if she left a good chunk of her fortune to them. Tiger was Ivana’s beloved furry companion and Radar alleges that a source said she planned on living Tiger millions in her will.
Tiger is currently with Ivana’s longtime assistant, Dorothy. “Tiger was her best friend. She loved that dog,” the source claimed. “Tiger was always getting under her feet and snapping at everyone but her. Ivana didn’t care.”
“Tiger was all she had. She died a single woman. Her children were grown up — and she would have been totally alone if not for Tiger. I wouldn’t be surprised if she left millions in her will to Tiger.”
As the source continued, Ivana “loved animals more than people.” Interesting.
