Eric Trump addresses rumors family doesn’t like Don Jr.’s fianc��e, Kimberly Guilfoyle

Rumors have been swirling that the Trump family “doesn’t like” Don Jr.’s fiancée, Kimberly Guilfoyle — but Eric Trump says he “thinks the world” of her.

“The vibe is that the family doesn’t like Kim,” says a source. “She is trying too hard to be in the family.”

But Eric told us when we reached out to him for comment, “I completely disagree with the narrative and happen to think the world of Kimberly.”

An insider tells us Don Jr. and Guilfoyle held a party at their $9.7 million Palm Beach, Fla., mansion this week for Toys for Tots that was DJ’d by Detroit rapper Kid Rock.

We’re told tongues were wagging over who was — and wasn’t — at the bash, which was estimated to have 300 guests.

While Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner did not attend, a source tells us: “They were invited to go, it was [Jewish sabbath] Shabbos. They have a good relationship. It’s just the rumor mill.”

Former President Donald Trump, we hear, came to the fundraiser for half an hour, but left before a “holiday boat parade.” Eric Trump and his wife, Lara, were also in attendance.

Eric had only kind words for Guilfoyle, telling us, “I am best friends with Don and had an absolute blast at the party.”
