Donald Trump Jr. and Kimberly Guilfoyle’s engagement has officially ended, a major development in their widely followed relationship.
Trump Jr. has been seen in public multiple times with his new girlfriend, Palm Beach, Florida socialite Bettina Anderson, while President Donald Trump named Guilfoyle as the U.S. ambassador to Greece.
Multiple insiders confirmed that Trump Jr., aged 45, and Guilfoyle, 54, ended their relationship of six years. Their most recent public appearance was on November 12, 2024. Reports also say that the couple split several months ago, maintaining a united front during the presidential campaign. Guilfoyle’s noticeable absence from Trump family gatherings, with Anderson seeming to fill her place, added to the speculation.
Trump Jr.’s relationship with Anderson, a prominent figure in Republican circles in Palm Beach, is already causing a stir. They have frequently been seen together in West Palm Beach, Florida with sources describing them as “happy” and “inseparable.” Trump Jr. has reportedly moved into Anderson’s townhouse, signaling a significant change in his personal life.
The timing of Guilfoyle’s nomination as ambassador has drawn attention. Critics have questioned whether this role is a consolation following her split with Trump Jr., a suggestion the Trump team has refuted. Although Guilfoyle, a former Fox News host and prosecutor, brings legal and media experience, critics have questioned her readiness for the role due to her lack of diplomatic credentials.
In a statement, Guilfoyle expressed her gratitude for the nomination, saying, “This is an honor, and I look forward to working closely with our Greek allies to strengthen our partnership.”
Despite the breakup, Trump Jr. publicly supported Guilfoyle’s nomination. He stated on social media, “I am so proud of Kimberly. She loves America and has always wanted to serve the country as an ambassador. She will be an amazing leader for America First.”
However, sources indicate there may have been underlying tensions between Guilfoyle and the Trump family. Reports suggest that her attempts to solidify her place within the family’s inner circle may have been counterproductive. Guilfoyle’s friends claim she was either oblivious of Trump Jr.’s growing relationship with Anderson or chose to overlook it.
The breakup and Guilfoyle’s nomination occurred at a politically critical time. Donald Trump Jr. continues to be a significant figure in his father’s political circle, and Guilfoyle’s new role puts her in a global position. Observers are keenly watching how these changes will affect the Trump family’s dynamics and larger political goals.
Sources close to the family say the breakup was not dramatic or contentious. “It’s an amicable split. It’s not one that is going to blow up, at least at this point,” an insider said. Despite their separation, the Trump family still holds Guilfoyle in high regard. “The Trump family is still enamored with her,” the source added.
