Who is RNC speaker Kimberly Guilfoyle?
The last time Kimberly Guilfoyle spoke at a Republican National Convention for Trump, it was 2020, a Trump-Pence ticket and she shouted her endorsement of Trump as a preacher might the word of God.
But who is Kimberly Guilfoyle?
Kimberly Guilfoyle is engaged to Donald Trump Jr
Guilfoyle is the fiancée of Donald Trump Jr., the former wife of Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom and served as the first lady of San Francisco in the first two years Newsom served as mayor, from 2003 to 2005.
Like her future father-in-law, Guilfoyle is an American TV personality, but she's also a prosecutor, earning a law degree from the University of San Francisco School of Law in 1994.
When she made her first TV appearances, it was under Kimberly Guilfoyle Newsom, and she went on to TV shows like "Wolf Blitzer Reports" and "Anderson Cooper 360°." But when she shed Newsom from her name, she recast herself as someone more likely to appear on more right-leaning shows like "Hannity & Colmes" and "Fox and Friends."
Guilfoyle was married to Newsom from 2001 to 2006. She fully shed her last name and all that came with it when she was dubbed a news anchor for Fox News in 2006, hosting the show "The Lineup" and co-hosting "The Five."
What is Kimberly Guilfoyle known for?
She's most known for her three-year stint on the Court TV show, "Both Sides," where Guilfoyle flexed her prosecutorial expertise. And of course, she's known for her eponymous show, The Kimberly Guilfoyle Show, which only began airing in 2023.
She and Trump Jr. started dating in 2018.

Kimberly Guilfoyle also spoke at the 2020 RNC in Charlotte
Last time she spoke about the former president, she told the 2020 RNC crowd he "emancipates and lifts you up to live your American dream." Pumping her fist above the podium, she spoke of destiny and ability, but she also described Biden and Democrats as socialist tricksters.
"Don't let Democrats destroy your families, your lives and your future," Guilfoyle said in 2020. "Don't let them kill future generations."
Guilfoyle is slated to speak Wednesday evening at the RNC between 7:30 and 8 p.m.
