Kimberly Guilfoyle's Lavish Life Got An Upgrade When She Moved To Greece

Donald Trump's second term as president of the United States brought about major changes for Kimberly Guilfoyle. The former lawyer and Fox News personality had been in a relationship with his eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., between 2018 and 2024. In December of that year, after Trump had been re-elected into the Oval Office, Guilfoyle's relationship with Don Jr. was officially done and dusted, and she was announced as the new U.S. ambassador to Greece. While a relationship breakdown always comes with a little emotional baggage and a few tears, Guilfoyle's new role has served up more than enough perks to help her move on. 

Income-wise, Guilfoyle's new salary as a diplomat might not necessarily top what she's already been making. Official figures surrounding her ambassador's income haven't been released, but her previous income sources earned her $1.7 million in 2024, per Business Insider. However, it's the things that money can't buy that sweeten the gig, which Guilfoyle carries out from the Greek capital. Since moving to the Mediterranean nation in November 2025, she's been residing in a palatial property owned by the U.S. government, which has given Guilfoyle the chance to host some pretty lavish social gatherings. Mingling with Athenian high society is expected of the new ambassador, and she seems to be taking to her new role like a duck to water. 

Now, Kimberly Guilfoyle has had a few fashion mishaps that have had heads turning, but her style seems to have also been upgraded following her move to Europe. Aesthetic-wise, we see her in the same kinds of outfits as before, but now she moves through the fashion world with a little more authority, whether it's to grace a high-profile magazine cover or brush elbows with industry elites at fashion week. 

Kimberly Guilfoyle didn't need to become an ambassador to fill her wardrobe with designer pieces. The former model has proudly rocked high-end brands throughout her time in the spotlight, notably wearing Dolce & Gabbana, Retrofête, and Valentino in 2025. She maintained her luxury style after she officially began her stint as ambassador in November 2025, attending Paris Fashion Week the following February in an all-white ensemble for the Elie Saab show. She had in tow a sparkly Versace clutch — one of several that she owns. 

Once her tenure had begun, Guilfoyle cultivated relationships with designer Celia Kritharioti, whose designs have been listed at nearly $20,000 on Lyst. For Christmas 2025, Guilfoyle shared an Instagram shot of herself in a regal gold strapless dress, which the designer reacted to with a red heart emoji. Kritharioti also dressed Guilfoyle for the cover of Grace magazine, which was published that month. This time channeling a Greek goddess, Guilfoyle graced the cover in a white cape gown with silver embellishments and her hair in a sophisticated updo. Guilfoyle also made it to Greek Vogue just before officially starting her position, in October 2025. Once again decked out in Celia Kritharioti, Guilfoyle this time appeared looking more like her usual self with long extensions and heavy smoky eye makeup, as seen in an Instagram post of the cover. Prior to coming to Greece, Guilfoyle might have worn expensive garb, but invitations to appear on magazine covers probably weren't flying into her inbox. 

While her fashion industry standing has clearly been revamped since she moved to Greece, the ambassador has also teased a change in her signature beauty look. And may we say, Kimberly Guilfoyle looks so different when she switches up her middle part!

It comes as no surprise that Kimberly Guilfoyle's social life has been buzzing since she took up the post of U.S. ambassador to Greece. "Everybody wants to meet her," Greek health minister Adonis Georgiadis told The New York Times. "When she came here, all my friends called me to ask me how she was in real life. I mean, even people who have never called me for anything." Naturally, Guilfoyle has been rubbing shoulders with her fellow diplomats from around the world, along with other major players in politics, business, and economics. 

Her ambassadorship kicked off with a few events in November 2025, including a party hosted by Greek pop star Konstantinos Argiros. The bash was held at Athens dance club Kentro Athinon, and Guilfoyle flew in via a jet owned by billionaire Eric Vassilatos. "It's important to show up for your friends, for the people that are there for you," Guilfoyle told The New York Times, after she was spotted at the party in the wee hours of the morning. "I think anyone that you talk to is going to tell you that I'm an incredibly loyal person. I have tremendous stamina." Before the month was out, Guilfoyle paid tribute to her American identity with a Thanksgiving event at the lavish Hotel Grande Bretagne in Athens.

She met with other foreign ambassadors in December, before traveling to Vienna, Austria, in January 2026. There, she attended the opera (via Instagram) and she got to connect with fellow U.S. ambassador Art Fisher against a backdrop of stunning Viennese architecture. "If it brings enthusiasm and interest in America and the economy and commerce and trade and our bilateral relationship, I'm all for that," she told The New York Times of her blooming social life.

When she was living in the United States with Donald Trump Jr., Kimberly Guilfoyle resided in a seaside estate worth $14 million in Admirals Cove, Florida. Once she split from Don Jr. and relocated to Greece for her new role, Guilfoyle moved to a residence that might not have been bigger than her old Florida mansion, but it was certainly one that money couldn't buy. As the U.S. ambassador to Greece, Guilfoyle is entitled to live in the official ambassadorial residence in Athens, which is not on offer to just anyone with money to spend. Doubling as a private residence and event space, it's known as Jefferson House to insiders, and boasts formal dining areas and reception rooms along with meeting spaces. 

Jefferson House is situated in Athens' swanky Kolonaki district, known for stunning sweeping views of the ancient cityscape, designer boutiques, and magnificent displays of local neoclassical architecture. The residence itself is reminiscent of old Greek palaces that might be described in Homer, complete with gardens, columns, and a pool. Guilfoyle hosted a holiday party there in December 2025, inviting all U.S. embassy staff. A Santa Claus appeared at the shindig, where chef Damian Connelly served traditional turkey pot pie with cranberry sauce for Guilfoyle's guests.

As the complete transformation of Kimberly Guilfoyle continues, we're keeping our eyes peeled for more exciting ambassador-coded changes and upgrades for the diplomat, particularly where her signature style is concerned.
