Ivana Trump, Donald Trump’s first wife, was reported dead on July 14, 2022. The medical examiner’s finding answered the immediate question over cause and manner of death and confirmed that investigators were treating the case as an accident.

The ruling does not add any sign of foul play or criminal involvement. It does set the record on the cause of death: blunt impact injuries to the torso, classified as accidental by the city’s medical examiner.
