The New York Post reports:
Ivana Trump was laid to rest at the bucolic Trump National Golf Club cemetery in Bedminster, New Jersey, on Wednesday, a source told The Post.
The ex-wife of former President Donald Trump was buried in a rose gold-hued casket at the tony golf club — which includes a pool complex next to 17th-century farm buildings — following her funeral in Manhattan earlier in the afternoon.
In 2017, Donald Trump proposed plans to build a small, 10-plot graveyard overlooking the first hole of the golf course for his family, the Washington Post reported at the time. The former commander-in-chief has said in the past he plans to be buried at the leafy site, too.
The New York Times reports:
Nearly two hours after the funeral began, pallbearers carried the coffin outside to a recessional performed by Christopher Macchio, who also sang at the Republican National Convention when the former president accepted his party’s nomination in 2020.
The coffin was placed in a black hearse bearing the name of Frank E. Campbell Funeral Home, the place of near-rest for many members of New York’s elite.
It was headed next to her ex-husband’s golf course in Bedminster, N.J., where ground was consecrated so Ms. Trump could have a traditional Catholic burial. It was, in a way, the former couple’s final joint real-estate deal.
The grave is 20 feet from the first tee. Fore!

At Ivana Trump’s funeral, Dorothy Curry, the nanny to her children, described her boss’s life as a “field of dreams” that became a “sinking swamp.” “Ivana, we reached out to you many, many times, but obviously we didn’t reach out far enough,” she said. https://t.co/UuEDtDJWa5
