“We Will Always Keep a Special Bond”: Donald Trump Jr. Opens Up Amid Split Rumors with Kimberly Guilfoyle

Donald Trump Jr., President-elect Donald Trump’s eldest son, was recently seen holding hands with socialite and model Bettina Anderson in Palm Beach, Florida, fueling speculation about his split with fiancée Kimberly Guilfoyle. While the pair has yet to make a formal announcement, Don Jr. has seemingly confirmed the breakup, emphasizing the amicable nature of their separation.

“Kimberly and I will never stop caring for each other and will always keep a special bond,” Don Jr. told The Daily Beast. He further expressed admiration for Guilfoyle, particularly in light of reports that she is being considered for the role of U.S. ambassador to Greece.

“I could not be more proud of her and the important role she’ll continue to play in my father’s administration,” he said, as reported by Page Six. Don Jr. also defended Guilfoyle against negative media coverage, calling out critics for taking “baseless and petty fake news cheap shots.”

Praising her accomplishments, Don Jr. remarked, “She’s been an undefeated prosecutor, national TV news star, a leader of the MAGA movement, and close advisor to the president. The people of Greece are getting an absolute star and now the whole world will see it more than ever… Since the very beginning, no one on Team Trump has worked harder than Kimberly to help elect and re-elect my father—and no one deserves this ambassadorship more than she does.”

Meanwhile, Don Jr.’s growing relationship with Anderson has attracted significant attention. She was notably seen at the 2024 Republican National Convention, seated directly behind Don Jr. and Guilfoyle. Reports suggest Anderson has gradually been introduced into the Trump family circle, with an appearance at a dinner at Mar-a-Lago. Insiders claim the Trumps were never particularly fond of Guilfoyle, with her bold fashion choices allegedly being a point of tension.

According to HOLA! magazine, Don Jr. and Guilfoyle frequently argued at public events this year, with frustrations reportedly boiling over in front of guests.

As for Don Jr. and Anderson, sources reveal their relationship remains in its early stages but is progressing positively. For Anderson’s birthday, Don Jr. reportedly marked the occasion with expensive jewelry, champagne, and a private celebration, mingling briefly with guests before retreating to a VIP area. Insiders say loved ones are hopeful and encouraging about the budding relationship.

While Don Jr. and Guilfoyle’s split marks the end of a significant chapter, Don Jr.’s public praise reflects mutual respect as both look ahead to new opportunities.
