Ivana Trump left Donald Trump's presidential inauguration after getting a 'very bad' seat: 'She was in shock'

• Ivana Trump was "in shock" at her seating placement at her ex-husband's inauguration, per New York magazine.

• "In Washington for the inauguration, she had a very bad seat," Massimo Gargia told the publication.

• Ivana Trump died last month after suffering a fall in her New York City townhouse.

Ivana Trump was "in shock" at the "very bad seat" that she was assigned during the 2017 presidential inauguration of her ex-husband, former President Donald Trump, according to New York magazine.

Ivana — who died last month after a fall in her New York City townhouse and was memorialized at an Upper East Side service  — was known for her gregarious nature and had become one most recognizable figures in the New York social scene after marrying Trump in 1977. (The pair's divorce was finalized in 1992.)

Massimo Gargia, who introduced Ivana to her fourth husband, Rossano Rubicondi, told New York magazine's Intelligencer that she was underwhelmed by the seating arrangement at the ceremony.

"In Washington for the inauguration, she had a very bad seat," Gargia told the publication. "So she left. She was in shock to see where they put her. It was a little exclusion."

The New York Post reported at the time that Ivana left the inaugural weekend festivities early to avoid seeing Marla Maples, who was married to Trump from 1993 to 1999.
