Marla Maples proved that elegance never goes out of style as she lit up the Hamptons this past weekend. The 61-year-old actress, singer, and former wife of President Donald Trump stepped into a dazzling plunging gold gown for the Global Wellness Forum’s first-ever fundraiser and fans couldn’t stop buzzing over her youthful glow.
Behind-the-scenes glamour
Maples, who shares daughter Tiffany Trump with the President, gave followers a front-row seat via Instagram Stories. In a playful clip from her dress fitting, she twirled for the camera to show off her Zadig & Voltaire gown from every angle, flashing a radiant smile.
She followed it up with a close-up video highlighting her delicate layered necklaces, soft waves styled at Salon Enzo in West Palm Beach, and the elegant table décor waiting for guests.
“Finishing touches for tonight’s Global Wellness, our first fundraiser,” she told fans warmly, before showing off flowers and the perfectly clear Hamptons sky.
Marla also thanked “all those who came out volunteering,” underscoring the community effort behind the fundraiser.
A night with friends and purpose
The evening wasn’t just about glamour. Marla also appeared alongside author Liana Werner-Gray, best known for The Earth Diet. Beaming at the camera, she declared: “Liana, it’s our night.”
The two shared their excitement about the evening’s mission, with Marla adding: “Our first fundraiser in The Hamptons, it’s so beautiful. I’m so happy to have you here.” She later revealed her joy at speaking during the event and mingled with fellow wellness enthusiasts.
On Facebook, Marla extended her gratitude to her glam squad, praising her hairdresser: “My oh my… do you make me look lovely. This blowdry has lasted me for five days — from Florida to DC to the Hamptons.”
A youthful glow rooted in lifestyle
Her Hamptons appearance comes just days after fans marveled at her vacation photos in Croatia, praising her radiant, youthful look. Marla credits her wellness routine, sharing with People that she starts every day with hot water and lemon, wheatgrass, green juice, and oatmeal.
She also swears by staying hydrated with four to five large glasses of water daily, and keeping active with everything from swimming and competitive tennis to shooting hoops, Iyengar yoga, and weight training.
“I know my week goes better when I’ve taken this time for myself,” she explained.
Primarily vegetarian, Maples occasionally enjoys meat but says her diet and lifestyle help her maintain balance and judging by her glowing fundraiser look, it’s working.
Still shining at 61
Decades after her high-profile marriage to Donald Trump, Marla Maples continues to captivate with her poise and presence. Whether it’s hosting a wellness event in the Hamptons or sharing simple snapshots of her health journey, she proves that beauty and purpose only grow stronger with time.
