Longtime New York City gossip columnist Liz Smith, who wrote about President Trump during his days as a real estate mogul in the city, has died at the age of 94.

Smith’s friend and literary agent, Joni Evans, confirmed Smith’s death on Sunday to The New York Times.

Smith was close friends with the Trump family and broke the news of Trump’s divorce from his first wife, Ivana.

She talked to The New Yorker last year about her relationship with the Trumps at the time, saying Ivana “threw herself into my arms crying” as she revealed that Trump was cheating on her.

Smith said Trump had called her from a plane about his dissolving marriage, telling Smith "I like Ivana, I might get back with her,” she recounted.

“Everyone had misjudged Donald. People thought he would be alarmed if it was revealed that he was having an affair. But it turned out he didn’t give a shit if people knew,” Smith said.

Her column, “Liz Smith,” ran in newspapers like The New York Daily News, Newsday and the New York Post before she began posting columns online for the New York Social Diary.

Smith became of the highest-paid gossip columnists in New York, earning more than $1 million a year, the Times reported.

Smith was married twice. Both relationships ended in divorce, and she left no immediate survivors, according to The Times.
