Trump signed prenuptial agreements with both of his ex-wives
But both of his divorces were still bitterly contested
CNN’s audience has been getting to know Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump since the 1980s, long before reality TV and a political campaign made him a household name.
A deep dive into CNN’s archives revealed some of the candidate’s most candid on-screen moments, including discussion of his marriages.
Trump was a guest on Larry King’s CNN show after divorcing his first two wives, Ivana and Marla. He frequently promoted prenuptial agreements during his interviews with King, an eight-time groom himself.
Despite signing prenuptial agreements with his brides, both of his divorces were bitterly contested.
“There’s nothing really nice about it. But in our world – with the long courts and with the vicious lawyers, and with all of the problems – if you have money or if you think you’re going to have money, you have to have a prenuptial agreement,” Trump told King in 2006, a year after his third marriage to Slovenian model Melania Knauss.
Trump and his family are scheduled to appear at a CNN town hall Tuesday at 9 p.m.
