Ivana Trump’s Fiancé Calls Her a “Bridezilla”
Oct. 31 2007, Published 4:00 a.m. ET
wedding to her fiancé, Rossano Rubicondi,will certainly be over the top. The
couple announced their engagement earlier this month after dating for five
years.
“I’m just starting the guest list, and I’ve already got 800 plus people,” the 58-year-old
mother of three tells reporters at the G&P Cancer Research Foundation’s Angel Ball held in
NYC on Oct. 29. “I’ve got a lot of
entertainers. I’m
going to have a 30-piece orchestra, and I have 15 bridesmaids.”
The ceremony will take place on Apr. 12 at ex-hubby Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort
in Palm Beach, Fla. Awkward? Hardly.
“Mar-a-Lago was a home of mine for about 15 years. I restored Mar-a-Lago
and changed it into a club. Afterwards, Donald said hey, let’s
make a business out of it.
The Donald is even invited. “Everything’s good, everything’s great,”
she assures.
How is Rossano, 35, dealing with his fiancée, whom he dubs a "bridezilla"? “She’s making me crazy!”
Want OK! each day? Sign up here!
he says with a laugh. “It’s going to be four
days of partying.”
What does she see in her 23-years-younger man? “I just need a younger person. I play tennis every
day. I go and exercise for hours. An older man is set in his ways and doesn’t want to move and
travel. I have so much energy. I’m
on airplanes and I’m
traveling to London
and St. Tropez — all
over the world.”
