Donald Trump Jr. has officially announced his engagement to Bettina Anderson, marking a new chapter in the couple’s year-long relationship. The news came during a surprise moment at a White House Christmas reception on Monday, December 15. Video footage captured President Donald Trump sharing the engagement announcement with guests before inviting the couple forward.

Trump Jr. publicly thanked Anderson for saying yes, admitting he had been anxious about the proposal. “When you go down there, you’re trying to ask and you’re not sure what the answer’s going to be,” he said. “It’s always a little bit rough.

Who is Bettina Anderson?

Bettina Anderson is a model and Palm Beach socialite from a prominent philanthropic family. She is the daughter of Harry Loy Anderson Jr. and Inger Anderson and is well-known in Florida’s social circles.

Trump Jr. and Anderson began dating in 2024, following the end of his engagement to former Fox News host Kimberly Guilfoyle, who now serves as the US ambassador to Greece. The couple has mostly kept their relationship private, though they have been photographed together at events in Palm Beach and were first publicly seen as a couple last summer. In recent days, Anderson had been spotted wearing a large diamond ring, sparking engagement rumors prior to the official announcement.

Trump Jr., a senior executive at the Trump Organization and a notable Republican figure, was previously married to Vanessa Trump. The former couple married in 2005, share five children, and divorced in 2018.

A spokesperson for Trump Jr. has confirmed the engagement, but neither he nor Anderson has issued a statement beyond the White House announcement.
