Donald Trump Jr sparks signs of marriage trouble with somber reaction to Kimberly Guilfoyle's RNC speech
MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN: Kimberly Guilfoyle and Donald Trump Jr have been romantically linked since 2018, following Trump Jr's divorce from Vanessa Trump. Their relationship, while strong, has not been without its complexities.
Despite Guilfoyle sporting an eight-carat diamond for over three years, the couple has kept their wedding plans under wraps, leading to speculation about their future.
The latest buzz, however, revolves around Guilfoyle's staunch support for Donald Trump and a recent incident at the Republican National Convention (RNC) that raised eyebrows.
Donald Trump Jr gives a somber response to Kimberly Guilfoyle's RNC speech
During the third night of the 2024 Republican National Convention, Kimberly Guilfoyle delivered an impassioned speech in support of her future father-in-law, Donald Trump.
While her speech received applause from the audience, the camera captured a notably less enthusiastic response from her fiance, Trump Jr. His expression remained somber and his applause was polite but restrained.
This reaction was mirrored by Trump, who also appeared less than enthusiastic about Guilfoyle's performance, as per The List.
The media didn't hold back in their critiques either. David Brooks, a columnist for The New York Times, commented harshly, stating, "Kimberly Guilfoyle could set the world record for worst convention moments if she keeps this up."
Donald Trump Jr and Kimberly Guilfoyle have been deflecting questions about marriage plans
He added, "She still doesn't seem to know that a microphone is a device for amplifying your voice and that you don't need to bellow."
Given Guilfoyle's extensive TV career dating back to the early 2000s, her apparent lack of microphone technique was surprising.
Trump Jr's stoic demeanor could have been a reflection of his embarrassment over her amplified volume or perhaps a signal of deeper issues within their relationship.
In various interviews, Guilfoyle has made it clear that reelecting Trump is her top priority, often deflecting questions about her marriage plans with Trump Jr.
During a 2019 appearance on 'The View,' when asked about wedding plans, Trump Jr hesitated, but Guilfoyle quickly interjected, "We need to get the president reelected," according to SheKnows.
Kimberly Guilfoyle's intensifying commitment to Donald Trump's ambitions
This sentiment was echoed in a 2023 interview with Newsmax, where Kimberly Guilfoyle emphasized, "We need more Trump."
The recurring theme of prioritizing the presidential campaign over personal plans suggests that their relationship may be taking a backseat to their political ambitions.
Guilfoyle's commitment to Trump's success has only intensified over time. In a 2020 television appearance, Trump Jr praised Guilfoyle's speaking abilities, contrasting his own direct approach with her subtlety and nuance.
"When you need a sledgehammer, I'm pretty good. When you need some subtlety and nuance, that's where she really steps in and does an amazing job," Trump Jr said.
However, by the 2020 Republican National Convention, Guilfoyle seemed to have adopted Trump Jr's "sledgehammer" approach, delivering a strident speech that left a lasting impression.
Her 2024 RNC speech appeared to be a repeat of her 2020 performance, down to the color of her outfit.
