“I need you to do this to me today”: US Ambassador to Greece Kimberly Guilfoyle targeted by embarrassing revelations

Shortly before being confirmed to this post, the current ambassador of the United States to Greece, Kimberly Guilfoyle, asked a wealthy supporter of Donald Trump to forgive her a debt of 100,000 dollars, reveals the Wall Street Journal. “It won't show if you transfer the money to American Express,” the ex-fiancée of Don Junior, the eldest son of the American president, wrote on July 3, 2025 on the Signal messaging service.

Questioned Thursday in Athens about these allegations, Secretary of State Marco Rubio kicked in. “I am not going to comment on a story that was literally published a few hours ago,” declared the head of American diplomacy, according to an AFP journalist who is following his European tour also passing through Iceland and Portugal.

Other possible conflicts of interest

According to the Wall Street Journal, supporting screenshots, Kimberly Guilfoyle spoke for months with Eric Deters, a lawyer and former congressional candidate for the state of Kentucky, who was seeking intervention from the Trump administration to resolve his problems with the taxman. Since 2020, this wealthy Republican donor has paid hundreds of thousands of dollars to the Trump family and in support of the camp of the winning candidate in the 2024 presidential election.

But Kimberly Guilfoyle's July 2025 request appears to be more personal, to regularize her credit card balance: "Honey, I need you to do this for me today," she wrote. Eric Deters did not follow up, assuring that this would jeopardize his marriage, according to the Wall Street Journal which specifies that a lawyer for Ambassador Guilfoyle contested the authenticity of the messages published, without further details.

The American press has reported in recent days other possible conflicts of interest involving Kimberly Guilfoyle, a former prosecutor and Fox News host and also ex-wife of Democratic Governor of California Gavin Newsom.
