Kimberly Guilfoyle, the recently ousted U.S. Ambassador to Greece, has Trump insiders worried that she could spill the secrets of the first family because she allegedly keeps a “burn book” filled with juicy details, according to a report.
The 57-year-old ex-girlfriend of Donald Trump Jr., has denied the allegations and said she would “always be a loyal supporter” of the president. “I intend to vigorously defend my name, my reputation, and my integrity,” she said in a statement Tuesday.
Since her ouster from the Trump administration, insiders are reportedly concerned about Guilfoyle’s next move. Her six-year relationship with Trump’s son made her privy to private conversations of key Trumpworld figures, according to the Daily Mail. The couple split up in late 2024, around the same time the elder Trump tapped her to be his Greece ambassador, and Don Jr. has since remarried Palm Beach socialite Bettina Anderson.
“Having her back in America would be a nightmare. Kimberly knows where the bodies are buried,” the source said. “She knows the people, the secrets, the fights, the relationships.”
Another insider told the Mail that “Kimberly knows everything” and was “way inside that family and political operation for years.”
Her troubles began when the Journal reported late last month that the U.S. ambassador had been promoting a Greek construction firm, where one of her advisers served as a lobbyist. After the story was published, Guilfoyle started calling influential Trump supporters and officials, asking them to back her up.
Then, on Oct. 7, a second story reported that the ambassador had asked Eric Deters, a former Trump donor, to pay off her $100,000 American Express bill in the lead-up to her September 2025 Senate confirmation. “Honey please I need you to get this done for me today,” she reportedly texted Eric Deters, asking him to wire the money in a way that would not leave a paper trail.
The president's aides talked about cutting Guilfoyle loose when Secretary of State Marco Rubio was in Greece between October 6 and 8, the Journal reported. However, the secretary didn’t want to upstage his speech on western civilization, which he delivered from the Acropolis in Athens. At the time, Rubio defended Guilfoyle, telling reporters: “You guys walk around thinking that because some source told you something and you reported it, it’s the gospel. It’s not the gospel.”
Trump’s new White House press secretary Katie Zacharia announced that the president had asked the ambassador to resign at her first briefing.
“I will always be a loyal supporter of President Trump and his mission to Make America Great Again,” she said.
