Kimberly Guilfoyle, the recently ousted U.S. ambassador to Greece, made Trump insiders fear she could reveal the first family’s secrets because she allegedly kept a “burn book” filled with juicy details, according to a report.

Guilfoyle resigned Tuesday after being at the center of a scandal accusing him of asking a MAGA donor to pay a $100,000 credit card bill days before his Senate confirmation hearing, followed by other salacious allegations surrounding his inappropriate conduct as head of the U.S. Embassy in Greece.

The 57-year-old ex-girlfriend of Donald Trump Jr. has denied the allegations and said she will “always be a loyal supporter” of the president. “I intend to vigorously defend my name, reputation and integrity,” she said in a statement Tuesday.

Since his 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 with key Trumpworld figures, according to the Daily mail. The couple split in late 2024, around the same time the elder Trump named her ambassador to Greece, and Don Jr. has since remarried Palm Beach socialite Bettina Anderson.

An anonymous source told the newspaper that Trump’s allies were concerned that she might leak explosive newspaper content now that she had “nothing to lose.”

“Bringing her back to America would be a nightmare. Kimberly knows where the bodies are buried,” the source said. “She knows people, secrets, fights, relationships.”

Another insider told the Email that “Kimberly knows everything” and that she has been “inside this family and political operation for years.”

Trump kept Guilfoyle away from his family Tuesday when he spoke to reporters. “No, she wasn’t part of my family,” he said. “I guess she dated my son a long time ago.”

The Independent has contacted the White House for comment.

Before his dismissal, Guilfoyle had been worried about his job for weeks, the The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday, citing people familiar with the matter. Some Trump advisers were working to save his job before the administration asked him to resign, fearing what it would reveal outside the family’s orbit, according to the Email.

His troubles began when Newspaper reported late last month that the US ambassador had promoted a Greek construction company, where one of his advisers served as a lobbyist. After the article was published, Guilfoyle began calling influential Trump supporters and officials, asking them to support her.

Then, on October 7, a second article reported that the ambassador had asked Eric Deters, a former Trump donor, to pay her $100,000 American Express bill ahead of her Senate confirmation in September 2025. “Honey, please, I need you to do this for me today,” she allegedly texted Eric Deters, asking him to wire the money in a way that would not let no written record.

The president’s aides talked about releasing Guilfoyle when Secretary of State Marco Rubio was in Greece between October 6 and 8, the Newspaper reported. However, the Secretary of State did not want to overshadow his speech on Western civilization, which he delivered from the Acropolis in Athens. At the time, Rubio defended Guilfoyle, telling reporters: “You walk around thinking that because a source told you something and you reported it, that’s the gospel. It’s not the gospel.”

Meanwhile, Trump had become angered by the shocking allegations against Guilfoyle, and he was bothered by the fact that she appeared to be profiting from his presidency.

Trump’s new White House press secretary, Katie Zacharia, announced that the president asked the ambassador to resign during his first briefing.

Guilfoyle paid tribute to the president in his resignation statement and said his “gratitude and respect” for him and Rubio were “unwavering.”

“I will always be a loyal supporter of President Trump and his mission to make America great again,” she said.
