What was Don Jr's brunch date, Bettina Anderson, doing sitting behind him and Kimberly Guilfoyle at RNC

MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN: Palm Beach socialite Bettina Anderson, linked to Donald Trump Jr, was seated directly behind the former first son and his fiancee Kimberly Guilfoyle at the Republican National Convention in July.

A recent report brought into the spotlight an intimate brunch Trump Jr had with Anderson on August 17, nearly a month after the RNC. He was caught "locking lips" with the socialite at Palm Beach's Honor Bar amid split rumors with Guilfoyle, according to a Daily Mail report last week.

The outlet also released pictures of the duo attending a party in Jupiter, Florida, last month, allegedly without Trump Jr's long-term fiancee.

Anderson was spotted in photos sitting behind the couple on July 17, the third night of the RNC in Milwaukee, according to Page Six.

Bettina Anderson chatted with Donald Trump Jr's ex-wife at RNC

Bettina Anderson attended the third night of RNC in a classy off-shoulder red outfit and was seen applauding, sitting a row behind Donald Trump Jr and Kimberly Guilfoyle.

Pictures from the event also showed her talking with Trump Jr's ex-wife, Vanessa Trump. According to sources, both are close friends, and Anderson attended the event with the former Trump daughter-in-law.

In some photographs, the Palm Beach socialite sat beside Vanessa, near the rest of the Trump clan.

Her face also appeared in the background in a picture Trump Jr shared on Instagram, a selfie of him with Hulk Hogan.

According to a GOP insider, Anderson was seated in an "open" seat, which was "not an assigned" one.

Speculations swirl about status of Donald Trump Jr and Kimberly Guilfoyle's relationship

Donald Trump Jr and Kimberly Guilfoyle, engaged since December 2020, sparked breakup rumors lately, and the former's brunch with Bettina Anderson added fuel to the fire. However, insider sources have contradicting opinions about the couple's current romance situation.

One source said to Page Six, "Don and Kimberly haven’t been getting along over the past year," and they argue in front of people at Mar-a-Lago. 

"Nothing crazy, but you know when a couple is fighting. They bicker in public," the insider added.

However, sources close to Trump Jr said everything was fine between the couple.

"They are 100 percent together. They love each other," one person said. Meanwhile, another added they were "as close as ever."

Trump Jr and his longtime fiancee are still living together and are expected to continue campaigning for former president Donald Trump together. Both are set to appear on Friday, September 20, at a conservative youth conference in Texas.

After the report of Trump Jr and Anderson's brunch blew up speculations, Guilfoyle posted a picture of her kissing the ex-first son on the cheek at a Patriot’s Day Freedom Fest.

Whereas Anderson took to Instagram to share pictures with the caption, "Gossip is the devil’s telephone. Best to just hang up. -Moira Rose." The caption was a quote by the over-the-top character played by Catherine O'Hara in the show 'Schitt's Creek'.

Anderson, the daughter of late banker Harry Loy Anderson Jr and Inger, is not a prominent MAGA donor. In 2022, she made a $2800 donation to Rep Maria Salazar from Florida.
