Donald Trump jokes ‘nobody’ who marries at Mar-a-Lago ‘gets divorced’ as he attends pals’ lavish wedding

Donald Trump joked about divorce while attending his friends’ lavish Mar-a-Lago wedding celebration, a source tells Page Six exclusively.

The former president attended Jarod and Alexa Malnik’s rehearsal dinner at his ritzy Palm Beach, Fla., estate last Friday.

“This is a great couple,” Trump, 77, told guests at the wedding weekend kickoff event. “Nobody gets divorced ever when they get married at Mar-a-Lago. People, 20 years later, say it’s the greatest marriage ever.”

The embattled businessman — who notably married his wife, Melania Trump, at Mar-a-Lago in 2005 — then posed for photos with the newlyweds and attended their afterparty.

We’re told guests chanted Trump’s name with glee after he made his speech.

The next day, the bride and groom tied the knot at the sprawling property in front of music executive Russell Simmons, boxing promoter Don King, actor Gianni Russo and Haute Living CEO Kamal Hotchandani, among others.

We’re told the couple, who met while studying at the University of Miami, worked with renowned wedding planner Carrie Zack to plan the black-tie reception featuring white florals, crystal decor and gold accents.

Alexa walked down the aisle in a custom Maria Farbinni strapless gown with a matching overskirt and lace gloves from Miami’s LBR Bridal store as well as white crystal and satin Rene Caovilla shoes ($1,660).

She also wore a special family heirloom necklace passed on to her by her mother-in-law, Nancy Malnick, the previous evening. The diamond-encrusted pendant had been gifted to Nancy by her husband, Al, on one of their wedding anniversaries.
