Donald Trump and Marla Maples got married in 1993. This was three years after the then-billionaire magnate's divorce with his first wife, Ivana Trump. As it happened, the former couple's "messy" separation started because of the now-President's affair with his second wife.
Amid all the divorce processes, it was reported by Cheat Sheet that Donald paid over $14 million in cash. Plus, he has to give $300,000 for alimony and $350,000 for child support, which sums to $650,000 annually.
Despite being a billionaire in the 90s, it was recently revealed that Donald Trump seemingly felt "wary" about the divorce. Not only that he lost cash, but Ivana Trump also officially obtained their mansions in Connecticut, Greenwich, and Trump Plaza.
Vanity Fair shared that the politician was not a fan of prenups. It was also stated that he sees this as a "buzzkill" to romance and a very "horrible" document.
But, after what happened between him and Ivana, the now-U.S. President made sure that his then-wife, Marla Maples would not get a penny once they separated. So, before tying the knot, they signed an "ironclad" prenup, which has been now revealed to the public.
As per the same publication, the prenup mainly contained Donald Trump's agreements to only pay her second wife $1 million if they separated after five years. Another $1 million will be given to her to buy a house after the separation.
For the child support payment, considering that they have a daughter, Tiffany, Donald reportedly "offered" $100,000 in figures, which will only be available when once she reaches 21.
This was also revealed to come with restrictions. As reported, the child support would "cease" if Tiffany joins the Army or the Peace Corps.
With these details at hand, divorce lawyer and expert, Roul Felder stated that these only go to show that Donald Trump was truly "wary" after his divorce with Ivana Trump. He was not leaving anything to chance, he added.
Aside from the agreements made toward the financial aspects, some reports also noted that the now-U.S. President was "determined" to keep Marla Maples quiet. This is because he, reportedly, included an "extensive confidentiality agreement" in the prenup.
Based on claims, Marla Maples agreed then to not publish anything about their marriage even after their separation. This includes any memoir, diary, photos, essays, articles, stories, accounts, or any of the like, "whether fictionalized or not," about the details of their union.
