Kimberly Guilfoyle's Net Worth Shows Fox News Probably Isn't Her Only Source Of Income


Just two months after his wife filed for divorce, it appears Donald Trump Jr is already off the market - and coupling with a Fox News host.

Don Jr, 40, has been dating Kimberly Guilfoyle, 49, for a few weeks, sources told Page Six.

One source said the pair are 'seeing each other' and 'having a great time'.

'While he wants to respect the privacy of his family, he is getting divorced, and he enjoys Kimberly's company,' they added.

Don Jr and Guilfoyle, a co-host on The Five, were recently seen arriving together at a party in honor of Richard Grenell, Trump's new ambassador to Germany.

Sources said the couple 'stuck close to each other' at the party on Sunday and left together to grab dinner at the upscale Harry Cipriani restaurant in Manhattan.

Vanessa Trump, 40, filed divorce papers in Manhattan Supreme Court in March after 12 years of marriage to Don Jr.

The divorce was listed as 'uncontested', meaning Vanessa is not asking for full custody of the children and Don Jr does not object to the filing.

'After 12 years of marriage, we have decided to go our separate ways,' the pair said in a joint statement.

'We will always have tremendous respect for each other and our families. We have five beautiful children together and they remain our top priority. We ask for your privacy during this time.'

Lawyers for Trump's eldest son have since asked the court for a statement on Vanessa's net worth after it was revealed she inherited millions from her father's investment in Rao's marinara sauce.

Guilfoyle was a prosecutor in Los Angeles and San Francisco. She served as San Francisco's District Attorney from 2000 to 2004.

She was previously married to Gavin Newsom, a prominent Democrat who served as mayor of San Francisco and is the current Lieutenant Governor of California.

The couple divorced in 2005 and Guilfoyle went on to marry Eric Villency, the CEO of a design firm, the following year.

Guilfoyle had a son with Villency in 2006 and the pair divorced three years later.

The Fox News host, who has repeatedly defended the Trump family on-air, was also rumored to have dated Anthony Scaramucci last year.

Guilfoyle confirmed last year that she had been in contention to serve as Trump's press secretary. She reportedly turned it down and extended her contract with Fox.

On Wednesday Trump Jr took to Instagram sharing a story about Kai waking him up early and then going to the gym.

On Tuesday he shared pictured of his 'daddy daughter date' with her where they went to the New York Stock Exchange.

It looks like one TV anchor is keeping herself busy when she's away from the news desk. Fox News host Kimberly Guilfoyle has a net worth that suggests she's making good money as one of the co-hosts of The Five, a conservative roundtable where Guilfoyle once joked that young women should "go back on Tinder" rather than vote. But Guilfoyle's career history includes more than her gig in political commentary. With a luxury home on the Upper West Side and a reported net worth of $5 million, according to The Richest, those multiple income streams probably helped contribute to her robust bank account.

Before accumulating her wealth, the 44-year-old San Francisco native got her early start as a Victoria's Secret model to pay for law school, she told People. While modeling clothes, swimwear, and lingerie, Guilfoyle said to People she met a lot of interesting individuals and "really learned a lot about self-confidence and self-worth." During school she also worked in a clothing store, a humble start to her path in eventually becoming a TV celebrity.

She went on to intern at the San Francisco district attorney's office and graduated in 1994 with a Juris Doctor from the University of San Francisco School of Law in 1994. It was after this that Guilfoyle's salary likely took a jump.

After a brief stint in a civil law firm, Guilfoyle began working as a prosecutor in San Francisco and for a while, dated oil tycoon Billy Getty, reported SFGate. Through her connections with the Getty family, Guilfoyle began doing political fundraising with the mega rich and worked on then-District Attorney Arlo Smith's re-election campaign. But Smith's loss led to her subsequent firing by the newly elected Terrence Hallinan.

Guilfoyle spent the next four years working as the Los Angeles Deputy District Attorney and Hallinan, impressed with her work there, re-hired her. Back in her hometown, Guilfoyle rose to further prominence when she married Gavin Newsom, who became mayor of San Francisco in 2003. A year later the San Francisco first lady moved to New York to start the television career Guilfoyle is now well-known for. The difficulties of a bi-coastal marriage would eventually result in her divorce from Newsom.

In front of the cameras, Guilfoyle had a small acting role in the film Happily Even After and hosted the program Both Sides on Court TV. She got her biggest break though she when she joined Fox News in 2006. She appeared regularly on The Lineup and The O'Reilly Factor before their cancellations, and also appeared as a guest host on Hannity and Fox and Friends. Since 2011 she has participated nightly on The Five, where she now throws her support behind the Trump administration and criticizes Democrats.

A recent scroll through her Twitter feed shows links to articles from conservative websites like the Washington Examiner, comments on international affairs like the Iran nuclear deal, re-tweets about positive approval ratings for Donald and Melania Trump, re-tweets of Donald Trump Jr., and comments on major figures, such as Trump's CIA director nominee Gina Haspel.

One of her most controversial remarks came in 2014 when she advised young women who don't have "life experience" to stay away from the voting booth and go back to online dating. “It’s the same reason why young women on juries are not a good idea,” Guilfoyle said on The Five. “They don’t get it!” She concluded the segment by saying, “They’re like healthy and hot and running around without a care in the world. They can go back on Tinder or Match.com.”

After the backlash, Guilfoyle clarified the young women shouldn't vote thing was a joke. In a statement provided by the Huffington Post:

My point is you’ve been given a powerful blessing in life in this country to be able to vote and to be able to sit on the jury so come equipped, come prepared because you don’t want to dilute the votes out there because you are uninformed and you’re spoon-fed something that’s inaccurate or you don’t even bother to equip yourself with the facts – anybody out there, this goes for everyone.

In between making political commentary on TV, Guilfoyle also published in 2015 a self-help book with anecdotes from her personal life, Making the Case: How To Be Your Own Best Advocate. As a Fox News personality and with her book endorsed by President Trump, Guilfoyle seems to be leading a comfortable high point in her career.


Amid his divorce from his wife of 12 years, Donald Trump Jr. has started dating Fox News host Kimberly Guilfoyle.

Multiple sources exclusively tell Page Six that Don Jr. and Guilfoyle, a co-host of “The Five,” have been dating for a few weeks, as his divorce from Vanessa Trump proceeds.

One source exclusively told Page Six, “Don Jr. and Kimberly are seeing each other, and are having a great time. While he wants to respect the privacy of his family, he is getting divorced, and he enjoys Kimberly’s company.”

The new couple was seen arriving together at a party hosted by Bill White and Bryan Eure for President Trump’s new ambassador to Germany, Richard Grenell, on Sunday evening.

Don Jr. and Guilfoyle mingled with guests but stuck close to each other, and later left together, heading for a late dinner at Harry Cipriani on Fifth Avenue.

Vanessa Trump, with whom Don Jr. has five children, filed for divorce in March.

The divorce was listed as “uncontested,” and a battle over their assets is not anticipated.

But lawyers for Don Jr., 40, have asked the court for a statement of Vanessa’s net worth after Page Six revealed she is actually a marinara millionaire, having received a large inheritance from her father’s investment in Rao’s red sauce.

Former San Francisco and LA prosecutor Guilfoyle, 49, is known for her strong connections to the Trump family, and she tirelessly backs the president and the first family on-air.

Last year, she announced she was talking with the administration about a press secretary job, before it emerged she was under contract with Fox News FOX, +0.59% NWS, +0.15% .

Guilfoyle clearly likes a man with political connections: She was married for four years to former San Francisco Mayor and current California Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom.

They separated in 2005 when she moved to New York to start a career in TV.

She was also linked to Anthony Scaramucci last year when he briefly separated from his wife, Deidre Ball, and was (even more briefly) White House communications director.

Reps for Trump Jr. and Guilfoyle didn’t get back to Page Six.

It appears that an actual human woman has romantic feelings for Donald Trump Jr., the CrossFit evangelist, the man who strikes up conversations with oversized chocolate bunnies, the asshole big-game hunter, the freaking guy who sent suggestive Twitter messages to a model while married.

According to multiple sources who spoke to “Page Six,” the First Boy is dating none other than Kimberly Guilfoyle, the former Victoria’s Secret model and current Fox News host who once said that young women should “go back to Tinder” instead of voting. (It’s rumored that Guilfoyle also had a thing with Anthony Scaramucci after his wife filed for divorce in late 2017.)

Because Trump himself is in the midst of divorce proceedings with his wife Vanessa, sources say that the new couple is trying to keep their relationship under wraps, though they arrived together at a party for President Donald Trump’s new ambassador to Germany last Sunday — clearly, they’re not putting in too much effort to keep whatever it is that they are a secret. Apparently, Trump and Guilfoyle have been dating for at least a few weeks, though neither of them responded to requests for comment from “Page Six.”

One source told “Page Six,” “Don Jr. and Kimberly are seeing each other, and are having a great time. While he wants to respect the privacy of his family, he is getting divorced, and he enjoys Kimberly’s company.”

Guess the ol’ Trump Boy can log out of all his dating apps for now.
