Former President Donald Trump's eldest son embarks on an international trip with his new flame, marking a definitive end to previous relationship speculation.
According to Daily Mail, Donald Trump Jr, 46, and Palm Beach socialite Bettina Anderson, 38, were spotted at Miami International Airport last Thursday, awaiting their flight to Madrid, just days after going public with their relationship.
The couple's departure follows their high-profile appearance at Mar-a-Lago, where they were seen displaying their affection openly during dinner.
They even shared a brief interaction with President-elect Donald Trump before his departure for New York City.
The relationship between Trump Jr and Anderson first caught public attention in August when they were photographed during an intimate brunch. Anderson, a registered Republican, has been a familiar face in Palm Beach's social circles and has previously attended various events at Mar-a-Lago.
A source close to the situation revealed to Daily Mail:
He's bewitched by Bettina – her looks, her smarts, her pedigree. Now that Kim is out of the picture the relationship is going to get even more serious.
The couple has been increasingly visible in Palm Beach social scenes, with Anderson sharing glimpses of their relationship on social media, including photos of birthday gifts from Trump Jr.
The Madrid trip comes on the heels of Trump Jr's confirmed split from former fiancée Kimberly Guilfoyle. The engagement's end became public three months after initial photos emerged of Trump Jr and Anderson together.
Despite the personal upheaval, Guilfoyle maintains her connection to the Trump political sphere, with President-elect Trump nominating her as ambassador to Greece. She responded to the nomination on social media, expressing readiness to serve while notably avoiding comment on her split with Trump Jr.
Trump Jr publicly congratulated Guilfoyle on the nomination through social media, posting:
I am so proud of Kimberly. She loves America and she always has wanted to serve the country as an Ambassador. She will be an amazing leader for America First.
The new couple has found their rhythm in West Palm Beach, with Trump Jr reportedly spending nights at Anderson's $860,000 townhome, located just a mile from Mar-a-Lago. Their relationship has evolved from discrete encounters to public displays of affection at high-profile venues.
Anderson has already established connections within the Trump family circle, sharing cordial relationships with Trump Jr's children and his ex-wife, Vanessa. She has been photographed at various Trump family events and maintains an active presence in Palm Beach's Republican social scene.
The international trip represents a significant step in their relationship, as they chose to distance themselves from the media attention surrounding their romance's public confirmation.
