How Donald Trump Jr.’s new girlfriend Bettina Anderson’s socialite style compares to ex Kimberly Guilfoyle
Donald Trump Jr. has left his fiancée Kimberly Guilfoyle with Palm Beach, Florida socialite Bettina Anderson.
DailyMail.com exclusively revealed that Don Jr. and Kimberly officially called off their engagement after she was “blindsided” by photos of her fiancé cozying up to Bettina.
Then, a source told People that President-elect Trump’s eldest son complained about Kimberly’s style — when some of her more questionable fashion choices resurfaced on social media.
The insider revealed that “Don Jr. been telling people for months that Kim is so uptight and always dresses so professionally in these kinds of dresses and high heels, and never looks relaxed or casual.’
Kimberly, 55, is most often photographed in plunging patriotic red and blue dresses from unknown designers, while Bettina, 38, has a penchant for showing off her high fashion purchases in professional Instagram photo shoots.
Both women may be publicly attached to Don Jr., 46, but their sense of style couldn’t be more different.
Over the years, many people have questioned Kimberly’s fashion choices, with Bettina’s followers praising her looks in her comments section.
Now FEMAIL compares his new girlfriend’s socialite style to that of his ex-Fox News alumni, from red carpet looks to Instagram photos.

Don Jr. even said that he sees Bettina as an equivalent to his father’s wife, Melania Trump, and that she certainly has a similar love for designer duds.

Bettina has amassed 48,000 Instagram followers who keep her up to date with her every move, including attending events with designers like Akris and Alice & Olivia.

“Your posts are so funny, looking forward to seeing everyone!!” one commenter raved, calling her “stunning.”
Another Instagram commenter wrote approvingly: ‘This is what a stylish woman should be like.’
The Columbia University graduate, who opts for matching sets and floral dresses, has even dipped her toe into the fashion world.
She collaborated with women’s designer website Moda Operandi to create online shopping guides.

Conversely, Don Jr.’s ex, a former Fox News panelist, is known for her big hair and form-fitting dresses.
However, Kimberly didn’t always dress like that.
The former prosecutor changed her aesthetic after divorcing her first husband, California Governor Gavin Newsom, in 2006.

Since coming into contact with the Trump family, Kimberly has gained attention on social media for her ensembles, including her signature tight, plunging dresses

The former prosecutor also sat front row at the Zang Toi (one of her favorite designers) show during New York Fashion Week, with huge butterflies on her shoulders.
