This was one of the big questions that fans of “gossips” were asking themselves regarding the Trump family: Was Donald Trump Jr. going to show up to his father’s swearing-in with his new girlfriend? For those who have not followed the latest tribulations of the president’s eldest son, we remind you that he changed partners on the sly. Since 2018, Don Jr. was in a relationship with the talkative Kimberly Guilfoyle, ex-Fox News star, former prosecutor and unwavering supporter of Donald Trump.
The 47-year-old businessman and his 55-year-old partner got engaged in 2022, but it seems that the eldest of the Trump siblings has finally grown tired of the relationship. In September 2024, he was paparazzed in the company of a certain Bettina Anderson, a 38-year-old jet-setter living the high life in Palm Beach. In December, we learned that Donald Trump had named Kimberly Guilfoyle US ambassador to Greece. A way to keep the fifty-year-old away?
The fact remains that this new romance is not unanimous within the Trump clan, according to the Daily Beast. It is rumored that those close to the president fear that Bettina Anderson’s sulphurous reputation will harm Don Jr. and, in turn, his father. In the Republican’s entourage, there was fear that the forty-year-old would arrive at the inauguration ceremony in the company of his new flame. “The idea that he might have the nerve to arrive on stage with a casual partner during the inauguration would be a misstep that could etch this relationship, and its questionable nature, into the history books,” worried a relative last week.
-Another close source interviewed by the “Daily Mail” denied this rumor, affirming that the thirty-year-old was very popular within the clan. The fact remains that Don Jr. seemed to walk on embers all day Monday, his two exes and his new partner being around. Bettina Anderson did not attend Donald Trump’s swearing-in. Some see it as a slap in the face of the jet-setter, others assure that she simply gave up her place to other guests. Don Jr.’s ex-wife, Vanessa Trump, was however present. As for Kimberly Guilfoyle, she shut down rumors that she was snubbed while appearing in the assembly.
Bettina Anderson did not appear on the arm of the president’s eldest son at the balls either. Ivanka, Eric and Tiffany all danced with their respective partners around the presidential couple, but Don Jr. twirled his daughters. Small consolation for the 38-year-old jet-setter: she was present in the stand with the Trump family during the parade at Capitol One Arena.
