The death of the 73 year-old first wife of former US president Donald Trump was ruled as accidental by the New York City Medical Examiner’s Office.
Ivana Trump’s death has been ruled an accident after she suffered “blunt impact injuries” to her torso in a fall down stairs at her New York City home.
US media outlets reported that Ivana was found at the foot of her apartment’s staircase next to a spilled cup of coffee.
On Thursday, the Trump family paid tribute to the matriarch as a “wonderful, beautiful, and amazing woman, who led a great and inspirational life”.
Her daughter Ivanka Trump said she was “heartbroken” and would “miss her forever”.
“Mom was brilliant, charming, passionate and wickedly funny. She lived life to the fullest – never forgoing an opportunity to laugh and dance,” the former presidential adviser wrote on Twitter.
“I will miss her forever and will keep her memory alive in our hearts always.”
Mr Trump, who was banned indefinitely from Twitter, announced the death on his social media platform Truth Social.
