PALM BEACH, FLORIDA: Kimberly Guilfoyle sent a sweet birthday shoutout to her ex-fiance Donald Trump Jr just as he was cozying up to his new girlfriend Bettina Anderson at the party of the year.

Kimberly, 55, took to Instagram to drop a cute collage of pics and videos celebrating Don Jr, who turned 47 on December 31. And where better to mark the occasion than at the iconic Mar-a-Lago?

New year, new love for Don Jr

The night wasn’t just about ringing in the new year. It was the first time Don Jr publicly stepped out with Bettina Anderson, a 37-year-old Palm Beach socialite who’s been turning heads lately. The duo walked hand-in-hand into the lavish soiree.



 

Of course, it wouldn’t be a Mar-a-Lago bash without a star-studded guest list. Don Jr’s father Donald Trump, Melania Trump, Elon Musk, and even Musk’s little son X joined the festivities. Melania slayed in a sleek black dress while Musk carried X on his shoulders as he made his entrance.

Inside the party, the birthday boy got the full VIP treatment with a rendition of "Happy Birthday" sung by the crowd. Joining him were his siblings, including Tiffany Trump, who’s glowing these days after announcing her first pregnancy back in October, The Sun reported.

The event was massive, to say the least. Local officials had hinted earlier that over 300 guests were expected to attend.



 

Kimberly’s Instagram post was a sweet gesture, but let’s not forget—this comes just weeks after she and Don Jr confirmed their engagement was off. While the details of their split remain hush-hush, rumors are swirling that Trump might tap Kimberly for a high-profile role as his ambassador to Greece once he takes office.

Meanwhile, Bettina Anderson’s rise to prominence has been rather swift. She was first spotted at Mar-a-Lago earlier in December attending a Christmas dinner. And though the couple only recently went public, Anderson seems to have seamlessly slipped into Don Jr.’s inner circle.

Split with Kimberly Guilfoyle and Don Jr's take on NYE

Don Jr and Kimberly Guilfoyle began dating in 2018 after his 13-year marriage to Vanessa Trump ended. Together, they became a MAGA power couple — with Kimberly fiercely championing the Trump dynasty and even playing key roles in all three of Trump’s presidential campaigns.

Their engagement in 2020 seemed like the cherry on top, but the two were no longer seen together by November of last year. It's worth noting that Kimberly was once married to California Governor Gavin Newsom.

As for Don Jr, he recently spilled his true feelings about New Year’s Eve at Mar-a-Lago on his Rumble show Triggered. “When I was a kid, New Year’s Eve was a lot better,” he admitted. “Because it was like, there’s always something to do, there’s always a party.”

“But now it’s sort of like amateur night. I get to be around 1,000 drunk people giving me their political opinions that I don’t necessarily want to hear,” he said. “While I love Mar-a-Lago, it’s sort of like, by about midnight, when everyone’s like 12 beers deep or whatever it is they’re drinking, the close-talking opinions — it’s not for me.”

The self-described “recluse” added that he prefers the great outdoors overcrowded soirees.

Still, for President-elect Donald Trump, Mar-a-Lago remains the place to be. He hyped the event on Truth Social, calling the estate the “Center of the Universe” and teasing that “New Year’s Eve is going to be AMAZING!!!”
