Kimberly Guilfoyle and Don Jr’s Bizarre Nicknames for Each Other Will Leave You Speechless
Kimberly Guilfoyle and Donald Trump Jr., a couple often in the public eye, have recently garnered attention not just for their political ties but for their affectionate nicknames and swirling relationship rumors. While they’ve faced negative press recently, insiders reveal playful details about their relationship, including Guilfoyle’s nickname for Don Jr.: “Junior Mints.”
According to Page Six, this nickname, though seemingly a reference to his wealth, insiders insist has no connection to money. A close friend shared that Guilfoyle first used “Junior Mints” in a group text with Don Jr. and their friends, jokingly calling him “so sweet” and sending a picture of the iconic candy. She even used the endearing name publicly during a speech for Turning Point USA, calling him “Junior Mints” in front of the crowd.
As for Don Jr., he affectionately calls Guilfoyle “Pooh Bear.” The couple has known each other for over a decade, moving in the same social circles long before they began dating in May 2018. At the time, Don Jr. was going through a divorce from his ex-wife Vanessa, with whom he shares five children, while Guilfoyle, a former Fox News host and prosecutor, had previously been married twice—to businessman Eric Villency and California Governor Gavin Newsom.
In a 2022 interview with Metropolitan Palm Beach magazine, Guilfoyle gushed about their connection, describing how she felt certain Don Jr. was “the one” after their first official date. “Don and I knew each other for years, but when we went on one date years later, that was it,” she said. “In fact, we have been together from that night on, happily ever after!” Their relationship soon became serious, with the couple announcing their engagement in 2020.
Since then, the two have been inseparable, frequently appearing together at political events and family gatherings. “We really are a team; we support each other, we’re best friends,” Guilfoyle said in a recent interview, expressing gratitude for their “strong relationship” and calling herself “blessed.”
However, recent reports from the Daily Mail have sparked rumors of trouble. Sources claimed that Don Jr. was spotted kissing and cozying up with British socialite Bettina Anderson at The Honor Bar in Palm Beach, Florida, on August 17. Witnesses described the pair as “totally relaxed” and noted their evident chemistry, with Anderson dressed in a casual white shirt and wide-leg pants while Don Jr. wore shorts and a t-shirt. According to one onlooker, “They were definitely on a date.”
Another witness confirmed, “The kisses were romantic, and you could tell they were intimate with each other.” Rumors spread quickly, with locals noting that the two appeared comfortable enough to be seen together openly around Palm Beach. So far, Guilfoyle, who has remained close to the Trump family throughout recent campaigns, has not publicly responded to these rumors.
An insider close to her shared insight into her possible stance, saying, “Kimberly either didn’t know about Bettina – or didn’t want to know. She’s no fool, but it’s easy to deceive yourself when you’re so committed to someone and believe he’s committed to you.”
For now, while the couple’s affectionate nicknames hint at closeness, the rumors surrounding Don Jr. suggest possible strain. As Guilfoyle and Don Jr. continue to appear together publicly, many will be watching to see how the high-profile couple navigates the challenges that come with life in the spotlight.
