Trump Wars: Ivana Trump filed a lawsuit Monday seeking to overturn the revised prenuptial agreement she signed in 1987 with Donald Trump. Ivana says she was “misled” in agreeing to accept only $25-million, and now seeks half of “The Donald’s” fortune, which she estimates to total $5 billion. She also charges that Trump has had “adulterous liaisons” with actress Marla Maples. Jay Goldberg, Donald Trump’s attorney, dismissed the lawsuit as “ridiculous,” saying Ivana signed the agreement “knowing full well what she was doing.” He said his client was “outraged” and that the allegations about adultery “will be denied at the appropriate time.”

Child thought up the recipe Friday morning in Philadelphia, saying, “President Bush would love to eat broccoli if it was prepared in this way.” Bush told reporters Thursday he hasn’t liked broccoli since he was a child.

He later married Amanda Reid, his physiotherapist.

Still Punching: Five hundred people lined up Saturday in Harvey, Ill., for an autograph from former heavyweight champion Muhammad Ali. “I’m still the greatest,” the 48-year-old Ali said as he feigned a punch at a 10-year-old boy. “George Foreman is going to beat Buster Douglas.
