Ivar Hansen (1 November 1938 – 11 March 2003) was a Danish politician from the Liberal party Venstre.
He was elected to the Folketing in 1973. In 1978–79, he was Minister of Public Works in the Anker Jørgensen cabinet. In 1998, he became speaker of the Folketing defeating his Social Democrat rival, Birte Weiss, after a drawing of lots.[citation needed]
He served until his sudden death in the Copenhagen apartment of his mistress Mariann Fischer Boel, who was at the time Minister for Foods and Agriculture. She publicly announced the death after she had talked to his wife. She continued her work and went on to become the European Commissioner for Agriculture.[1]
He was chairman of the JydskeVestkysten newspaper from 1991 to 1998.[citation needed]

- Se og Hør reported that Hansen died in her apartment, and that the two had had a relationship running for years. "Fischer Boel initially tried to hide what had happened, but it naturally escaped. She was otherwise on the verge of taking over the chairmanship of the Folketing, but when the circumstances surrounding Ivar Hansen's death came to light, there was broad agreement that it was hardly appropriate anymore.Today, Mariann Fischer Boel sits far from Denmark as EU Commissioner in Brussels."
