When Rossano Rubicondi married Ivana Trump at Mar-A-Lago \u2014 the luxury Palm Beach club and resort owned by her second spouse, Donald Trump \u2014 in 2008, the Italian left made it clear he viewed himself as a champion-grade husband.<\/p>\n

\u201cRossano trotted down the big spiral staircase and onto the outside terrace, where around 400 guests\u201d \u2014 and a 12-foot-tall wedding cake \u2014\u00a0\u201cwere in attendance. He was fist pumping to the \u2018Rocky\u2019 theme,\u201d R. Couri Hay, the press agent who was a guest, told The Post. \u201cUsually the bride enters from there and gets all the attention. But Rossano was such a proud peacock that he couldn\u2019t help himself. Some of guests were appalled.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rubicondi\u00a0died last Friday, at age 49, from complications related to melanoma. The ruggedly handsome actor and Ivana had a relationship that was both checkered and modern: Though their marriage was kaput by 2009, they remained an on-again\/off-again couple for the better part of a decade and appeared together on the Italian version of \u201cDancing with the Stars\u201d in 2018. Although Ivana told Page Six in 2019 that the romance had \u201cran its course,\u201d her feelings for\u00a0<\/strong>Rubicondi seemed to linger.<\/p>\n

Upon hearing of his passing, she told\u00a0People magazine, \u201cI\u2019m devastated.\u201d<\/p>\n

Prior to their wedding, though, she might have had other words for the man that Hay referred to as a \u201cstud muffin.\u201d<\/p>\n

Weeks before the ceremony, according to Town & Country, Palm Beach Police\u00a0responded to what was described as a domestic disturbance\u00a0over the couple\u2019s pre-nuptial agreement. Apparently, there was plenty to argue over: At the time of the wedding, Ivana was said to be worth some $30 million, derived via her divorce settlement from Donald plus business ventures that included a perfume and two books.<\/p>\n\n

The altercation ended with Rubicondi in handcuffs, but no charges were filed and eventually the $3 million wedding went on as planned. Although Ivana\u2019s oldest son, Don Jr., made an unsettling comment to Rubicondi during a toast: \u201cWe are a construction company and we have job sites; we lose people. You better treat her right, because I have a .45 and a shovel.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rubicondi was born in Rome and blessed with good looks. He landed in London where he worked as a model and got bit by the acting bug. Fittingly, his first role, in a 1997 movie called \u201cThe Eighteenth Angel,\u201d has him credited as \u201cmodel.\u201d By the time he met Ivana in 2002, the then-30-year-old actor had four movie credits under his belt and was still model handsome.<\/p>\n
