Donald Trump Jr. and Bettina Anderson attracted attention when they were seen walking hand-in-hand in Palm Beach, Florida, on December 9, marking a notable moment after Trump Jr.’s split from fiancée Kimberly Guilfoyle.
Their display of affection occurred months after they were initially seen together in July at the Republican National Convention. At that time, their interaction appeared platonic, as Trump Jr. was still engaged to Guilfoyle. However, reports later surfaced in August suggesting the two had been spotted kissing, fueling speculation about their relationship.
On December 10, multiple sources confirmed that Trump Jr. and Guilfoyle, who began dating in 2018, had ended their engagement after a challenging year. Another source revealed that Anderson and Trump Jr. had been dating for several months and described them as a “natural fit.”
Bettina Anderson was born in December 1986 to Harry Loy Anderson Jr. and Inger Anderson. Her father, who passed away in 2013, made history as the youngest president of Worth Avenue National Bank at age 26.
He also served on the board of the Historical Society of Palm Beach County and the American Red Cross. Meanwhile, her mother has been actively involved with organizations such as the YMCA and Urban Youth Impact.
Known for her refined style, Bettina has modeled for various jewelry and clothing brands, appearing on the cover of Quest magazine in 2020 and Palm Beach Illustrated in 2021. Her personal Instagram showcases her affinity for elegant maxi and sun dresses.
A Columbia University alumna, Bettina graduated in 2009 with a degree in art history. She was also a member of the Sigma Delta Tau sorority. Currently, she works for The Paradise Fund, a nonprofit she founded in 2007 to support disaster relief, serving as its executive director and director of fundraising. Several of her family members are also involved in the organization.
