Puzzling and vaguely threatening graffiti appeared overnight around a Manhattan luxury townhouse once occupied by President Trump’s former wife Ivana Trump, including the ominous message, “We killing u for Ivana Trump.”
The graffiti, which also referenced the first daughter, with “My queen Ivanka Trump,” was scrawled in yellow spray paint across five buildings on the Upper East Side next to and near the E. 64th St. townhouse where Ivana lived until her death in 2022, police said.
“We coming 4 you!” “To die fo,” “Murder Inc.,” “Illuminati” and “777” were also spray-painted across the buildings — including three buildings just to the west of Ivana’s former residence at 10 E. 64th St., plus two right across the street from it.
The Czech-American businesswoman and former model bought the tony structure in 1992 after her divorce from Donald Trump, property records show. It has remained vacant since 2022, and is currently on the market for $19.5 million, according to Street Easy.
Cops said the graffiti appeared around 1:07 a.m. on Friday.

Judith Ann Abrams, a Broadway producer who rents an apartment in the building just west of Ivana’s former place, said she was friends with Ivana. When she returned home Thursday night from the opening of the new show “Smash,” there was no graffiti to be seen. But later on, smelling spray paint, she went out to investigate and found the crazed scrawls festooning the front of her building and others.
“I was up all night [talking] with the police,” she said. “We’ve been begging the landlord to put in cameras. It scares me that police couldn’t find one place that had video. What is happening to this city?”
Police are investigating the incident. They are not considering it a hate crime, police said.
