Trump Family Unites in Miami as Ivana Trump’s Mother Marie Zelníčková Turns 100

Marie Zelníčková, the mother of the late Ivana Trump, has reached a remarkable milestone, turning 100 years old as members of the Trump family gathered in Miami to celebrate her birthday.

Ivanka Trump shared a series of photographs from the celebration on Instagram, offering a glimpse into the private family gathering and highlighting four generations of the family.

The celebration took place at Ivanka and Jared Kushner’s home in Miami last Saturday and brought together Zelníčková, her three grandchildren and all 10 of her great-grandchildren.

Four Generations Gather for the Celebration

One of the most striking photographs showed Zelníčková surrounded by Donald Trump Jr, Ivanka Trump and Eric Trump, along with their respective partners and children.

Ivanka and Jared Kushner attended with their three children, Arabella, Joseph and Theodore. Eric and Lara Trump were joined by their two children, while Donald Trump Jr’s five children from his previous marriage to Vanessa Trump also formed part of the family gathering.

The group posed behind a table decorated with plants and white tableware, creating a relaxed family setting for the milestone occasion.

The Birthday Girl Takes Centre Stage

Zelníčková was photographed sitting behind a large birthday cake featuring the number 100.

She wore a turquoise top with a matching patterned jacket featuring a prominent floral decoration, accessorised with pearls, a bracelet and a gold watch.

Another photograph showed her sitting alongside Ivanka, Jared and their three children on a couch surrounded by balloons.

Ivanka Shares Emotional Tribute

Ivanka marked the occasion with a heartfelt message celebrating her grandmother’s long life and the family’s connection across generations.

She described the gathering as a special reflection of a family legacy spanning four generations and said Zelníčková’s century of life had been defined by love, family and memories.

Ivanka also acknowledged the absence of her late mother, Ivana Trump, who died in 2022 at the age of 73 after suffering injuries in a fall at her Manhattan townhouse.

She said her mother’s presence was nevertheless felt through the stories shared during the celebration and through the family she had loved.

The Younger Generation Joins the Party

The photographs also captured a more playful side of the occasion, with members of the younger generation enjoying time around the pool.

Ivanka’s children were dressed for the family celebration, with Arabella wearing a green dress while Joseph and Theodore wore coordinating green polo shirts and white trousers.

Other images showed the children playing on a water slide, adding a more informal touch to the otherwise elegant gathering.

Ivanka and Jared Share a Tender Moment

Among the photographs was also a more intimate image of Ivanka and Jared, who posed together surrounded by greenery.

Ivanka leaned against her husband while Jared wrapped his arms around her, providing another glimpse into the family-focused celebration.

Ivanka also appeared alongside her grandmother and her two brothers in another photograph from the occasion.

Some Trump Family Members Were Absent

Not every member of the wider Trump family attended the Miami celebration.

Donald Trump’s daughter Tiffany Trump, whom he shares with Marla Maples, was not pictured at the gathering. Barron Trump, Donald Trump’s only child with Melania Trump, was also absent.

Despite their absence, the gathering brought together a large portion of the family for Zelníčková’s historic birthday.

A Birthday Marked by Ivana’s Memory

Ivanka ended her tribute by reflecting on the influence her grandmother has had on generations of the family.

Her message also served as a remembrance of Ivana, whose absence was particularly significant during a celebration involving her mother and children.

The birthday therefore became more than a centenary celebration, bringing together multiple generations while keeping alive the memory of a family member who died four years ago.

Celebration Comes After High-Profile White House Appearance

The family gathering came only days after several members of the Trump family appeared at a White House state dinner for Chinese President Xi Jinping.

Ivanka attended the event in a blue Georges Hobeika gown reportedly worth about $6,000, featuring crystal embellishments, floral detailing and a structured bodice.

Tiffany wore a champagne-coloured evening gown with a beaded neckline, while Lara Trump chose a sparkling gold dress.

The contrasting occasions offered two different glimpses of the Trump family — one centred on an international diplomatic event and the other on a deeply personal family milestone.
