He was a top executive in the family company. He climbed the ladders of family business following mainly Donald’s footsteps turning their company into a multimillion-dollar brand which it is today. Mostly out of the media spotlight his highlight came only during a high-end divorce with Blaine Trump. Thier marriage came to a crashing end after Blaine claimed he was cheating on her with the woman he later settled with.

The couple had been together for 25 years but unlike his brother, they didn’t sign a prenup. Which lead to a hard dirty court battle. Of course, Robert defended his estimated 200Million$ fortune arguing it was all inherited. Blaine was armed to the teeth with her lawyer Robert Stephan Cohen(same lawyer who fought for Christie Brinkley in her divorce with Peter Cook). Trump, of course, would have none of that and was furious with Robert Cohen it seems the bitter feud he had with Robert(the same lawyer who ripped Ivana) was not over. Donald has said that he asked his brother to get the agreement signed many times and he told Donald he had already made one. Mistake or not there was no agreement and now he paid. Cohen did loose at the Ivana case but he found himself one more way to get to Trump and this time it was through Robert.

After his divorce, he bought a 3.7 million dollar house for his secretary Ann Marie Palin in Garden City NY after falling in love of course and the media caught him in their sights again. Robert was missing and never to be seen in the media for a long time until now. One of the major reason was everyone around him became sympathetic to Blaine. He has given an exclusive interview to Page Six and has revealed he is “gainfully retired” and is currently residing in Millbrook, New York in the Hudson Valley with Ann Marie. His family owns and also operate a famous resort and spa named Gurney in Montauk. In Millbrook, residents say that he maintains a reserved but an affable presence. On the bright side, he supports a large number of local causes and businesses using his finance. He is also a Trustee at Angels of Light which is a holiday giving the nonprofit organization. His donations include a horse rescue operation among many others. Unlike his older brother Donald, he is not flamboyant. A completely different type of person Robert does not seem to be a rich person at first glance. He is classy and dignified reported a local.
