Donald Trump Jr. was recently spotted making a public appearance with Florida socialite Bettina Anderson, despite being engaged to his long-time girlfriend, Kimberly Guilfoyle. The 46-year-old scion of the Trump family was seen holding hands with Anderson on Monday evening, sparking rumors about the current status of his relationship with the former Fox News TV host.
Photos published by DailyMail.com captured Trump Jr. and Anderson enjoying an evening stroll in Palm Beach, Florida. The outing, which coincided with Anderson's 38th birthday celebration, included a nearly two-hour dining session at the popular downtown restaurant Buccan.
Neither Trump Jr. nor Guilfoyle has publicly commented on the status of their relationship. However, President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Guilfoyle to serve as the U.S. Ambassador to Greece, a position she has honorably accepted.
Their relationship has reportedly become the hot topic of conversation in Palm Beach, with sources telling DailyMail.com that Anderson seemed completely enchanted by Trump Jr. During a meal at the Honor Bar, she was reportedly seen leaning over to plant a seductive kiss on him three times. "She seemed totally smitten with Don, and he with her," shared a source.
This affectionate public display emerges amidst reports of a growing distance between Trump Jr. and Guilfoyle. The couple, who started dating in 2018 and announced their engagement in 2020, has not been seen together since November 12. Trump Jr. has reportedly been staying at Anderson's West Palm Beach townhouse instead of the $15.5 million mansion he and Guilfoyle purchased in 2021.
Back in September, sources told People that Trump Jr. and Guilfoyle had been spending more time apart. One insider described Trump Jr. as "coming and going as he pleases," and noted his apparent involvement with Anderson, adding that the two had been spotted together at brunch in Palm Beach, displaying affectionate behavior.
Anderson, a model and philanthropist, is a third-generation resident of Palm Beach and is known to be friends with Trump Jr.'s ex-wife, Vanessa Trump. On her Instagram Story, Anderson shared a flower delivery message that read: "Many have said you're aging out, but I think you're perfect… Happy Birthday!" The post subtly tagged Don Jr. in the upper-left corner.
During their five years together, Guilfoyle, 55, became a prominent figure in MAGA circles, delivering speeches at Republican events and sharing pro-Trump content on social media. However, a close source to Guilfoyle hinted that she may have had an inkling about the situation. "Kimberly either didn't know about Bettina—or didn't want to know," one source told DailyMail.com. "She's no fool, but it's easy to deceive yourself when you're so committed to someone and believe they're committed to you."
