Vanessa Trump Voted Most Likely to Get Divorced
Vanessa Trump has gotten her fair share of press this past week after announcing she'd be filing for divorce from Donald Trump Jr. First, it was the discovery of Trump Jr.'s rumored affair with Danity Kane singer, Aubrey O'Day (and all the details that came along with that), and now it's an in-depth look into her life via The New York Times.
According to the Times, Vanessa was not a notable student, and in her high school yearbook was named most likely to "get a divorce" and "be on Ricki Lake."
From school, Vanessa became a model and a party girl in Manhattan. Lizzie Grubman, a publicist who sometimes worked with Vanessa, called her and her younger sister "pretty girls who liked getting photographed." At one point, Vanessa was even linked to Leonardo DiCaprio in a tabloid, though his publicist claimed they never dated.
She went on to meet Trump Jr. at a fashion show for a Kmart brand in 2003 and got engaged in 2004. When Trump Jr. eventually proposed, he did so with a $100,000 ring that he got in exchange for agreeing to propose outside the mall where the jeweler was located. Nothing says romance like some pre-Instagram spon con.
Christine Schott, who previously worked as a publicist for Vanessa, told the Times that she thinks Vanessa could "still have a nice career." "She could be a mommy blogger, and she could take on a cause," she said. "She is in a position to do something great."
Should we all count the days till Gwyneth Paltrow signs her on as a contributing editor to Goop.com?
