His first marriage ended in 1986 after 20 years. Mazzucchelli met Ivana Trump, who was recently separated from business tycoon Donald Trump, through a mutual friend in 1991. He proposed to her in 1992 but she told him she wasn't ready yet. He proposed again in late 1994 and she accepted on 9/27/1994.
