Transaction Details
On July 25, a warranty deed recorded in Palm Beach County transferred full ownership of a six-bedroom, waterfront mansion in the Admirals Cove gated community of Jupiter, Florida, to Donald Trump Jr. According to the deed, Trump Jr. paid Kimberly Guilfoyle $7.6 million for her share of the property. The transaction was first reported by the Palm Beach Post.
Relationship Background & Property History
Trump Jr. and Guilfoyle, who were engaged for roughly four years, bought the Jupiter home together in 2021 for $9.7 million. The couple also owned a Hamptons residence, which they sold in 2021. Their engagement ended in 2024, after which Trump Jr. married socialite Bettina Anderson in the Bahamas in May 2025. Guilfoyle, a former Fox News host and senior adviser on Trump campaign operations, was appointed U.S. ambassador to Greece in November 2025 and is now based in Athens, as indicated by a stamp on the deed.

Official Statements & Future Plans
Guilfoyle told the New York Times that she is “happy for Don” and wishes him “all the best,” indicating no public dispute over the buy-out. The New York Post reported that Trump Jr. considered listing the Jupiter home for as much as $30 million, but the property is not currently on the market, according to the Palm Beach Post. Separate reports suggest Trump Jr. may develop an eight-bedroom residence on an empty lot in the Prospect Park neighborhood of West Palm Beach, a site linked to a trust he controls that purchased the land for $15 million in February 2024.
Conflicting Reports & Gaps
Sources differ on the home’s square footage (16,477 sq ft vs. 11,270 sq ft) and lot size (1.18 acres vs. 0.74 acre). No definitive public statement has clarified which figures are accurate, and the ultimate disposition of the Jupiter property—whether it will be sold, retained, or redeveloped—remains unconfirmed.
