Kai Trump's subtle nod to Don Jr's new GF in her vlog may leave Kimberly Guilfoyle feeling salty
WASHINGTON, DC: Donald Trump Jr and his girlfriend, Bettina Anderson, stirred up mixed reactions within the Trump family as they attended Donald Trump's inauguration festivities together.
While several sources report that the Trump family isn't exactly thrilled with the Palm Beach socialite, Don Jr's oldest daughter, Kai Trump, seems to have given her subtle approval in a behind-the-scenes video of her grandfather's inauguration. This could be a tough moment for her father's ex-fiancee, Kimberly Guilfoyle
The 17-year-old's vlogs often highlight a more personal, relatable side of her family, showing that despite their public stature, they are just like any other family.
Kai Trump seems to maintain a smooth relationship with her father Donald Trump Jr's new girlfriend
In Kai Trump’s video titled, "My Grandpa Became the President Again," at the 8:39 mark, there’s a quick, blink-and-you-miss-it shot of Bettina Anderson with Kai, signaling that the teen seems comfortable with her father’s new partner.
The rest of the video and Kai's other social media posts focus on the inauguration, with no direct mention of her father's new flame, but the brief appearance suggests she's being welcomed into the family.
This is a sharp contrast to Kai's relationship with Don Jr's ex-fiancee, Guilfoyle, as per Nicki Swift.
Additionally, Kai posted several photos on Instagram, including shots of her and her father dancing at the inaugural ball, showcasing the strong bond between them, which remains unshaken despite his new relationship.
Kai Trump was never close to Donald Trump Jr's ex-fiancee Kimberly Guilfoyle
Kai Trump didn't seem to share a close relationship with Kimberly Guilfoyle, during the time she was dating her father, and it seems like there’s little connection now.
Although Guilfoyle follows Kai on Instagram, the University of Miami student hasn’t followed her back, while she does follow her father, Don Jr.
After Trump won the election, Kai took to X (formerly Twitter) to share a group photo with the caption, "The whole squad." While the photo included Elon Musk and one of his sons, there was no sign of Guilfoyle.
Just days before her grandfather’s victory, Kai posted about her family’s Halloween celebrations, captioning the photos, "Halloween with the fam." The pictures featured her siblings, her mother, Vanessa Trump, and her father—again, no sign of Guilfoyle.
What do other Trump family members think of Donald Trump Jr's relationship with Bettina Anderson?
Reports suggest that Donald Trump Jr and his new girlfriend, Bettina Anderson, are practically living together, but several sources indicate that their relationship has become a divisive issue within the Trump family.
Recently, Don Jr attended several high-profile events in celebration of his father's presidential inauguration with Anderson, including a fireworks display at Trump National Golf Club, the Turning Point USA Inaugural-Eve Ball, and a dinner at the National Building Museum.
However, sources have revealed that the relationship has raised concerns among family members. One insider stated, "Individuals close to the president have expressed growing concerns about the potential liability posed by his son’s new relationship. I told him that she’s not someone he should be around, and let him know about her past."
Further reports emphasize that some family members disapprove of the relationship, with one saying, "Donald Trump does not approve of his son’s association with Bettina. Bettina’s presence is seen as a liability rather than an asset."
"The idea that he might have the audacity to bring a casual partner on stage at the inauguration has been described as a potential misstep that could etch this relationship, and its questionable nature, into the history books," they added.
