PALM BEACH, FLORIDA: Donald Trump Jr and Kimberly Guilfoyle's awkward behavior during Donald Trump's victory speech on election night further fueled their breakup rumors.

Donald Trump Jr and Kimberly Guilfoyle's awkward behavior fuels breakup rumors

The entire Trump clan was seen onstage in a video posted on X. However, Donald Trump Jr seemed like he was continuously trying to move away from her fiancee Kimberly Guilfoyle while maintaining distance.

Guilfoyle moved aimlessly from one side of the stage to the other to try and stand next to Trump Jr who couldn't be bothered to face her. She had her head hung low and a somber look on her face. Guilfoyle finally stood next to her fiance but neither of them seemed to be happy about it.

While Trump Jr clapped and smiled toward the audience, he kept his back toward Guilfoyle the entire time and almost physically pushed her out of his father's inner circle, according to The List.

Trump Jr and Guilfoyle's relationship has not been smooth for some time now. Guilfoyle’s absence from Trump’s high-profile debate against Kamala Harris on September 10 sparked widespread speculation of a potential breakup with her fiance.

Guilfoyle was noticeably missing during the September 10 debate despite the attendance of Lara and Eric Trump and even Trump's lawyer Alina Habba.

Despite their breakup rumors, Trump Jr and Guilfoyle were seen campaigning for Donald Trump in past months. The couple also hosted a dinner and reception in London to raise more money for Donald Trump's presidential campaign. They ended up netting $3 million, according to the Telegraph.

Don Jr's prior lack of affection towards Kimberly Guilfoyle hinted at possible split

Donald Trump Jr's lack of affection towards Kimberly Guilfoyle is not something new. In an Instagram post from Patriot's Day Freedom Fest in Kentucky in September 2024, Guilfoyle tried to show adoration toward Trump Jr while he stood awkwardly with his arms by his side.

Moreover, in August 2024, Trump Jr was seen locking lips with a Republican Palm Beach socialite, Bettina Anderson, during a brunch date in pictures provided by the Daily Mail.

The witnesses said it was clear this was no business meeting, with one revealing Anderson was seen reaching over to plant a sexy kiss on Trump Jr's lips three times, per the outlet.

A source said, "She seemed totally smitten with Don – and he with her. They looked totally relaxed, she wearing a white shirt tied off to show her midriff and wide-leg pants, he in shorts and a t-shirt."

The source added, "They were definitely on a date. They weren't exactly making out, but the kisses were romantic, and you could tell they were intimate with each other."
