Donald Trump Jr's GF Bettina Anderson appears to clap back at critics in new post: 'Let them talk'

PALM BEACH, FLORIDA: For months, the rumor mill has been in overdrive about Donald Trump Jr’s supposedly rocky relationship with Kimberly Guilfoyle.

The drama reached its boiling point when Don Jr made an appearance at Mar-a-Lago's Christmas dinner with Bettina Anderson by his side.

Kimberly was MIA, and it seemed Bettina was officially in. Furthermore, it looks like President-elect Donald Trump has given Bettina his seal of approval, making it clear she’s more than just a holiday fling.

But stepping into the spotlight as Donald Trump Jr’s new leading lady hasn’t been all champagne toasts and designer dresses for Bettina Anderson. It has earned her labels like "homewrecker" amid endless speculation about when this romance began.

And let’s not forget the endless math equations about whether this overlap was just a coincidence or something more.

Bettina usually keeps her Instagram low-key, sticking to glamorous modeling shots and cheeky captions like, "If you're trying to impress me with your vehicle, it had better be a food truck." But she switched things up on Saturday, December 28.

The Palm Beach socialite posted a video from Cycas Motivation, a group dedicated to inspiring hope. The clip features a speaker quoting the Bible and encouraging people to rise above rumors.

"So let them lie. Let them manipulate. Let them talk. You just be still, because when God is on your side, who can stand against you?" the speaker says. 

Rumors surrounding Bettina Anderson and Donald Trump Jr's relationship keep growing

But even with Bettina Anderson playing it cool, the rumor mill refuses to slow down. One theory is that she is cozying up to Donald Trump Jr for access to none other than billionaire Elon Musk.

And that’s not all. Sources have spilled to the New York Post that Bettina’s been working her charm on Trump insiders. She's allegedly eyeing a role in the new administration, perhaps angling for a plum position.

But now that Bettina and Don Jr are officially an item, critics are already predicting potential bumps in their love story. Their eight-year age gap might be an issue, and the logistics of dating someone with five children is far from easy.

Furthermore, Don Jr’s calendar is about to be packed with his new role as a partner at investment firm 1789 Capital.

As for Bettina, if she lands her reported dream gig as the head of the President's Committee on the Arts and Humanities, she’ll be clocking plenty of hours in Washington, DC, far from Mar-a-Lago’s gilded halls, according to The List.

Dealing with the 'other woman' label won't be easy for Bettina Anderson

Even with all her "let them talk" energy, Bettina Anderson’s got a tough road ahead. Being pegged as "the other woman" isn’t exactly an easy label to shake.

Interestingly, another clip from the Cycas Motivation page features therapist John Delony advising a caller tangled in an affair.

Without mincing words, Delony said, "I don't think you love your husband. I also think deep down, you understand that you're with somebody of so little character that he doesn't mind blowing up another family so he can hook up with somebody."
