Donald Trump Jr.'s New Relationship Sparks Controversy as Girlfriend Defends Herself Online

Bettina Anderson, the rumored new girlfriend of Donald Trump Jr., has seemingly addressed critics through social media following their appearances together at events, including a Christmas feast at Mar-a-Lago. The speculation surrounding their relationship intensified after various reports suggested that Trump Jr. had recently ended his engagement to Kimberley Guilfoyle, who has been selected as Trump's ambassador to Greece.

In light of the rumors, 38-year-old Anderson shared a direct message on Instagram that quotes the Bible's book of Exodus, advocating for resilience against detractors. This message coincided with their attendance at the Trump Christmas celebrations, where they were photographed with Melania Trump and Barron Trump. Their relationship became a topic of discussion after several sightings of them together began surfacing since September.

The timing of their relationship development raises questions, especially since Don Jr. and Anderson have been seen together multiple times, including a moment where they were photographed holding hands. Their relationship adds another layer to Don Jr.'s personal life, as he previously ended a 13-year marriage with Vanessa Trump, with whom he shares five children. Insiders suggest that there are concerns among those close to Trump regarding Anderson's alignment with Republican ideals, given her previous support for movements like Black Lives Matter and her advocacy for following COVID-19 health guidelines. Despite this, she is expected to attend Trump’s inauguration in January 2025 alongside Don Jr.
