What a difference a year makes: Kimberly Guilfoyle, former Fox News host, spent this time last year likely prepping for Donald Trump Jr.’s birthday.
But since the couple called it quits − some reports suggest an Easter breakup − the former fiance of Trump Jr., whom she called “the love of her life,” is preparing for her new role as ambassador to Greece.
Earlier this month, Trump Jr. publicly stepped out with model and Palm Beach, Florida, socialite Bettina Anderson. Days later, Donald Trump appointed Guilfoyle as his representative overseas.
It’s a far cry from the several Instagram posts on Guilfoyle’s feed about her “soulmate,” Donald Trump Jr. The couple first started dating in 2018, and she played a pivotal role in Donald Trump’s re-election campaigns in 2020 and 2024.
On Dec. 31, 2024, Guilfoyle posted a photo album of Donald Trump Jr. on her Instagram: “Happy birthday to the love of my life @donaldjtrumpjr. These past years have been full of unforgettable memories. I love you to the moon and back! #happybirthday #loveofmylife #donaldtrumpjr #maga #maga24 #trump24 #birthday #soulmate #kimberlyguilfoyle”
In 2021, the couple bought a home together in Jupiter, Florida, in the exclusive gated community Admirals Cove. Property records show the luxury waterfront home is not on the market, and neither Donald Trump Jr. nor Guilfoyle have made any public comments about the future of their home.
Where do Kimberly Guilfoyle and Donald Trump Jr. live in Florida?
When is Donald Trump Jr.’s birthday?
Donald Trump Jr., the eldest child of Donald Trump and the late Ivanka Trump, was born on New Year’s Eve, Dec. 31, 1977. His siblings are Ivanka Trump and Eric Trump, half-sister Tiffany Trump born to Donald Trump and Marla Maples, and half-brother Barron Trump, born to Donald and Melania Trump.
Donald Trump Jr. previously was married to former model Vanessa Trump from 2005 to 2018. They have five children: Kai Madison Trump, Donald Trump III, Tristan Trump, Spencer Trump and Chloe Trump.
Donald Trump Jr. and Kimberly Guilfoyle started dating in 2018 after his divorce was finalized from Vanessa Trump. The pair were engaged and bought a house together in 2021 and split sometime in 2024. Though some news reports, including a column from the Palm Beach Daily News society columnist Shannon Donnelly, suggested Donald Trump Jr. and Guilfoyle broke up before Easter 2024, Guilfoyle posted “happy anniversary” love notes to her Instagram followers about her “soulmate” Donald Trump Jr. in April and May. She also appeared by Donald Trump Jr.’s side multiple times throughout his father’s 2024 presidential campaign − including the high-profile Republican National Convention in July 2024 and on Election Night at the Palm Beach County Convention Center in Palm Beach.
Who is Bettina Anderson? When did model and socialite Bettina Anderson of Florida start dating Donald Trump Jr.?
When it comes to Palm Beach society, the model and socialite is a well-known figure. She has an Instagram following of 50,000 as of Dec. 26, 2024, with lots of photos and Reels touting her
Photos of Bettina Anderson kissing Donald Trump Jr. were posted earlier this month on British tabloid sites. US Weekly also reported Trump and his longtime live-in girlfriend, former Fox News host Kimberly Guilfoyle, split and called off their wedding before the presidential election in November.
Since then, Donald Trump Jr. has been spotted in public with the socialite. A report in the Daily Mail on Dec. 26 said the former president’s eldest son brought Anderson to a Christmas party at Mar-a-Lago. For years, Anderson has attended Palm Beach society events. She also co-hosted an invitation-only Trump fundraiser in October.
