Bloomingdale Will Bares His Secret Divorce
 Donald Bloomingdale Donald Irving Bloomingdale (1913-1954), 42, department store heir who died March 4 of an overdose of barbituates, and his French wife were divorced secretly in 1951, it became known yesterday with the filing of his will for probate in Surrogate's Court. No mention of his onetime spouse, the former Bethsabee de Rothschild Bethsabée Louise Emilie Béatrix (Rothschild) de Rothschild (1914-1999) of the French banking family, was made in the document, which provides for distribution of a "substantial estate well in excess of $50,000."
She Has No Claim. Queried on the point, Bloomingdale's counsel, Henry Klein of 350 Fifth Ave., disclosed the divorce and said the former Mrs. Bloomingdale had no legal claims on the estate. Bloomingdale, one an attache in the U. S. Embassy in Paris and a son of the late Irving Bloomingdale, vice president of Bloomingdale's, made his home in France but came to the U. S. several months ago for medical treatment. He was found dead in his Sherry-Netherland suite.
Estate to Mother. His will provides gifts for several friends and employes[sic] in sums up to $10,000, and leaves the residuary estate in trust for his mother, Mrs. Rosalie B Bloomingdale Rosalie (Banner) Bloomingdale (1886-) of the Hotel St. Regis. The document stipulates that she may apply for 10% of the principal every six months. Individual gifts include: $10,000 and personal effects to his valet, William DuPorte; $5,000 to Klein; $5,000 to the Countess Grace de Mun of 927 Fifth Ave.; $5,000 in trust to her son, Philippe; $5,000 to Mrs. Edyth S. Shelby Edythe Matilda (Stern) Shoninger (1881-1957), secretary to Bloomingdale's mother; one-third of this art objects to Mme. Georges Lillaz of Paris; specified jewelry and antiques to Roderick Cameron, a friend.
